Well, so we ended up largely moving into the new room today – at least, the first iteration of the move. Basically trying to remove clutter from the common area, and use the room in a relatively efficient manner.
In the new room:
* My computer, with screen, printer, mouse, keyboard, speakers, on the desk I inherited from my grandparents.
* Ei-Nyung’s computer, hooked up as a server, and accessible through my computer via a client of some sort.
* My Alesis Quadrasynth – if I turn around from the computer desk, it’s right there. There’s just enough space that it doesn’t feel cramped at all.
* In the corner, the Roland MC-303 (a sort of crappy analog synth emulator/drum machine), the Alesis Wedge (a desktop reverb unit), the Toshiba 20″ TV Ei-Nyung gave me for my birthday a couple years ago, my Dreamcast, and my PS2.
* A stack of PS2 games in a DVD tower.
* The Concept 2 erg I got off Craislist’s free listings (it’s got a funky clutch in the flywheel which needs work, but most of the time works ok, and if you know what you’re doing, you can tell when it’s going to slip – still – potentially hazardous).
* The Total Gym Pro I got from EA’s Want Ads system for $20
* My guitar and bass, as well as Ei-Nyung’s two acoustic guitars
* In the closet, three longboxes and one shortbox of comic books (I’ve got two longboxes still at my parents’, which I’ll be moving over shortly), and Ei-Nyung’s wedding dress (for next year).
Wackiness. It all fit reasonably easily, and there’s even room in the middle for a chair of some sort, on which to play games.
I also reorganized one of the hallway closets, which freed up enough space to get our cleaning supplies stored in the closet, which is a nice change of pace from just having them pressed up against the wall. Ei-Nyung also found a bag of her sentimental-type stuff from some time ago. The remaining boxes could use a pretty thorough going-over, but it’s in a much better state than it was.
Whee. Long day ‘o cleaning, and frankly, the rest of the house currently looks much worse for it. Still, had to be done, and much left to do.
