did i mention that we’re going for gypsy status?

last weekend evan and i trucked back to knoxville to gather up all of our stuff (well as much as could fit in one toyota tacoma and one 6×12 uhual trailer, which was surprisingly more than we planned on) and bring it back to durham!  we are renting our house to some friends there.  and then this weekend we’re moving, well i’m moving, from our cool downtown apt that was built by evan, to an almost as cool downtown apt built when evan was only three, a.k.a. not by evan.  although i’ll miss our lux granite countertops, tiled shower and stainless steel appliances, we’ll greatly appreciate our reduced rent.  i called time warner cable today to tell them of our move and after a long conversation i finally explained that really what we are doing is flip flopping apartments with this other guy… he’s moving into ours, we’re moving into his.  the guy on the other end laughed loudly in disbelief and said “in all my two years of working here, i’ve never heard of anything like this!”  yep, that’s how our lives go.

we’re at the beach.

but a few monday ideas for those in town:

the ben&jerry’s at broad street offers buy one, get one free sundaes on monday nights.  that’s 2 sundaes for only $5, which is way cheaper then even their kid’s cones.  an idea for anyone that likes to indulge as much as the travises.

we also recommend checking out dos perros which opens tonight according to their website.  it’s a new mexican restaurant in downtown durham.  if you do check it out at any point, please leave a comment and let us know what you think.
