Yes, we're back at Hotel Occidental. I don't understand why, after our things just arrived two days ago, do we have to vacate NOW? They're tenting our place for termites (apparently, it's a preventative thing, and we have to vacate for three days). Of course, this all coincides with Penny's spay surgery. And Ollie is living at a kennel about 20 minutes northeast of our house.
The whole fumigation process is actually very interesting. The gas that kills the termites is actually colorless and odorless, but they use another warning agent afterwards that is like nerve gas. It makes you heave, vomit, and pass out. And, we had to pack up our medicine and all of our food in double impermeable plastic bags. So if you open our freezer, you'll find a huge montage of tater tots, car shaped chicken nuggets, and broccoli florets!
So we are basically living out of a 225 square foot room with a tv, bathroom, and "kitchenette." The hotel is all European-style, with showers down the hall. I especially love the IKEA furnishings. AND, the concierge ladies are so friendly--one gave me phone support in the form of a boyfriend on the other end of her cell phone! And we can walk to work. So what's better than that?
