New Apartment Housewarming Party

At the beginning of August I moved into a new place, got a new room mate and a new mafia-affiliated landlord and, for the first time in 5 years, I have my own bedroom that has an actual door. It's a dream come true.

Not only do I now have my own bedroom, but I also have a real living room, kitchen, office/desk area, annd bathroom--what luxury!! Coming from jank dorm rooms and a small one bedroom though, I essentially had no furniture whatsoever. So my parents, being the angels that they are, agreed to rent a uhaul truck, fill it with furniture and drive it all the way to NYC in order to protect me from the dangers of furniture shopping on craigslist and trying to put together the million-piece items from ikea. And since they had a huge truck, they didn't want any space to go un-utilized! So my dad fired up the smoker before they left home and my mom filled some coolers with dry ice and they were able to bring some good ol' Texas BBQ to New York. It was amazing.

Angy took a few pics of the gathering of some of my favorite people I've met here in the city as we celebrated the new place and enjoyed some home cooking...
