After two weeks of looking, we found a nice apartment in Coal Harbour, which was fully furnished, and didn’t want a one year lease. All bills, including cable TV, high speed internet and apparently limitless downloads are taken care of too! Sweet. The place also has view over to the mountains on the North Shore which gives me something to look at while farting around on my laptop, though since this is my first time living in a high rise I have to remember that there’s probably another 400 apartments who can look in my windows.

Our complex also has a small gym on the third floor, so I’ve been heading down there most morning’s this week just getting back into exercise. Clearly snowboarding in minus temperatures doesn’t require a whole lot of energy, as my gut managed to expand over winter. Then again, it could have been the jellies. On the plus side, my legs seem to be in pretty good shape which is beneficial from a running point of view.

Now it’s time to look for a job and start earning some cash again!
