Today I woke up around 8:30 and explored the neighborhood (walking down Broadway) a bit and obtained some food (eggs on a bagel at Nussbaum & Wu’s) and apartment supplies, including paper towels, orange juice, and toothpaste (not necessarily in that order). The rest of the day I just hung out mostly, and played phone tag with my Dad concerning what the strategy was to be concerning my bed. Last night, I slept on a sleeping bag<\/a> on the floor. I had a plan to bus over to the NJ Ikea which would have taken most of tomorrow — but instead I got a new bed from the folks over at Mattress.com<\/a> who took care of me with this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow I think I’ll try to figure out about a dresser, take my comforter-that’s-really-a-bed-cover back to Marshall’s and get a real one, maybe practice my clarinet a little bit (I have to audition in about a month for the Wind Ensemble) and maybe do some more grocery shopping. I discovered that there is a little 24 hr grocery store across the street from my apartment, where I was able to get some pasta sauce and Italian sausasge and make a rudimentary pasta dinner once the bed was taken care of.<\/p>\n

Today I (re) discovered some things about Ian:
\nHe graduated from Swarthmore. He’s from Corvallis, OR. He’s taught 4th grad social studies at a Yeshiva in Brooklyn. He was the editor of Boston Review magazine, and was a freelance copy editor in the Bay Area. He plays the guitar and listens to pretty much every kind of music but 80s heavy metal (“although I was into punk in middle school”), and lived a few years ago in Avignon, France.<\/p>\n
