No transfer....yet.

Got to work today after my six day weekend and discovered that none of the transfer requests went through and those that I did put in for, my name had dropped to fourth or lower on the list which means my chances of being able to get out of this state are small to slim to none, depending on how many of the people above me put in for other places and were accepted there. Today was alright at work, not too busy, not too slow so that the time passed by quick enough; but, I still managed to have time to breathe and think.

Last night brought about a shitty discovery.

My A.C. unit in my bedroom doesn't work. You know what the first words out of one of the leasing office employees were when I mentioned the work order? You should wait till the weather warms up more. My response: "It was 60 degrees and raining so I couldn't leave my window open; but, it felt closer to 70-80 degrees. I can't sleep when it's hot." Their response: 'Oh.' Thankfully it happened now rather than one of the days where it's like 70 degrees and humid at night. They put in the work ticket and it should hopefully be fixed in the next week or so, preferably sooner.

Also, asked about renewing my lease since I haven't heard anything on my transfers yet. They asked me about whether or not I knew about their online renewal process to which I said, no. We chatted for a bit about it, they gave me my registration code so I could register and I'm probably going to sit down and renew my lease sometime within the next few days, if not this weekend.

Other than that, nothing really remarkable happened today.

MoviePass card has arrived!

So, thankfully we didn't get any new accumulation of snow today; but, the roads were still shit for a lot of the traveling public trying to go into work. I, personally, didn't have any issues; but, I could see where others easily could. The bad news? We're supposed to get another 2-4 inches tonight. While that might excite some people, it doesn't actually do anything other than tell me I'm going to have to take it slow driving into work tomorrow.

Great news everyone! I finally got my MoviePass card and I'm fully planning on taking it on its maiden voyage tomorrow to the theater and testing it out, seeing how confusing the whole process is. There shouldn't be a huge crowd hopefully, considering it'll be the middle of the week; but, if there's anything I've discovered up here, it's that nothing with Michiganders make sense.

Other news: got my letter about lease renewal.Which means I'm running out of time to decide what I plan to do. I've got three options: a.) stay in my current apartment and set up online payments (they're going to start charging $10 fees for checks apparently), b.) move to a new apartment,  or c.) get lucky and move for a transfer for my job. I have till the end of April to make my decision right now, unless I get an offer for a transfer between now and then.

Finally got around to watching some of the commercials from the Super Bowl and I was actually really curious about the new Mission: Impossible, it looks like a good ending to the series or at least, I hope it is an ending to it. Only time will tell, I guess!
