Living in Nashville: Week ONE

We have been in Nashville a week and we don't despise it, or each other...yet.

Some interesting things we've discovered in our first week:

1. You can't make U-turns at any stop light, ever.
     (we looked this one up after already having made one)

2. The carpool lane is only a carpool lane during certain hours.
     (It could be like this elsewhere and I just never noticed)

3. Public bathrooms RARELY have seat covers.
     (This makes me sad)

4. Having rocking chairs on the front porch is not just a stereotype.
     (It's a fact)

5. There are a crazy amount of pincher bugs that like to come into our apartment.
     (Cameron killed at least 5 within an hour last night)

6. These creepy things are creepy!


Click HERE to see a video of Cameron's attempt to catch it. Ultimately the battle ended by stabbing it with a lightsaber.
   
7. People smoke inside.
      (nuff said)
8. Carls Jr. is "Hardee's" and has a different menu.
9. You have to give up your out of state license to get a TN one.
     (we're officially Tennessee residents!)
10. We saw our first southern mullet.
        (pretty awesome)

We've gotten almost everything we need, a few miscellaneous things we're still getting around to but we're good on all the necessities.

I made us a menu yesterday!
  (thanks, Pinterest, for the idea)


 I managed to get myself a poorly working car yesterday, it's an Nissan Altima that likes to do magic tricks when you try to speed up too quickly (my bad). Hopefully it will get me through these first six months or  so, at least until we both have stable jobs, then i'll invest in something a little more reliable.

Finally, click HERE to see a video of our apartment as it is...Enjoy!

We miss everybody and hope ya'll are doing well!
