So my apartment has a great view!
Apparently my insurance company doesn't like the view as much because they won't cover us! Thank goodness this is temporary! Something about flooding or some ridiculous thing like that... Which brings me to the nice little tidbit we heard right before we got here. So glad we got the warning! LA has the most expensive insurance in the US. Fabulous!
There are a few differences that I have noticed.
Mosquitoes have the power of invisibility. I am covered in mosquito bites but haven't seen any...hmmm. I miss the bird sized mosquitoes you can see coming!
Milk is hella expensive! It's about double what we pay in the midwest! Damn those happy cows being in WI.
Fruit is a little bit cheaper, but not by much.
People are nice. The checker forgot to put my WI cheese in my bag at the grocery store. He came running out to give it to me!
They don't have our floss here :( we have to switch brands. They do however have already brewed coffee in the refrigerated section in a special bottle that can measure out a shot of coffee i can only assume would be for iced coffee but i guess you can also heat it up. why wouldn't you just brew your own? weird!
Why fix the roads?
The weather doesn't necessarily come from the west it comes from the south east or at least it has this last week.
We are in the process of looking at houses. This is not a fun experience. I used to watch the shows about people trying to buy houses and think the people were being over dramatic...now I completely understand.
Amid the chaos I have been reluctantly practicing my finger waves and roller sets. yuck!
Hopefully soon I will have another update!
