But Actually, *I’m* The Girl Who’s Going To Houston

August 29th, 2006

Like tomorrow. At 5:30 am.

Part of the reason I’m road tripping tomorrow is I’m unemployed and have nothing better to do. But the main reason I’m traveling the 1,000 miles from O-Town to H-Town is, I need an apartment.

That’s right, an apartment in Texas.

Yes dear hannihaus readers, in lieu of certain career-changing events (mine sort of sputtering, and Angel’s taking off—ha ha), the Family ‘Haus will be moving out west.

Bet you didn’t expect me to pull that rabbit out of my hat.

But I’ve been leaving clues. Never let it be said I don’t shake things up every once in a while. Keep your ear to the ground and you’ll see. I’m not always full of shit; sometimes I’m full of surprises.

  1. Lazy Lightning Says:

    Change is good!

  2. marnie Says:

    I am in agreeance of Lazy’s statement. A fresh start is always a good thing. You can throw out all the crap you have been schlepping about and you will know where everything is in your new place.

    Safe travels.

  3. stampydurst Says:

    Honey, you can be full of shit AND surprises. I just can’t figure out where you find the room to keep the funny. Congrats on your move - that’s awesome. I like change, too. But if you were going to head West, couldn’t you have kept going? That way you’d be closer to Rockstar Brother and me. Think you could handle all that coolness?

  4. Dima Says:

    Everytime I hear the word HOUSTON, I start having convulsions, but I know you’re excited about it, and that’s all that matters. Congrats :)

  5. Half a Beaner Says:

    WooHoo, Hänni! That’s the fearless organic raisin eater we all love to read about. And just in time to catch the end of hurricane season!

  6. kooks Says:

    i fear for your organic raisin consumption in texas. if you need some sent your way from the northwest (where eating organic is next to godiliness . . . or something) i’d be happy to help out. good luck in houston.

  7. kerri anne Says:

    I’m with Stamps. Why stop? Oregon is right around the corner! You know, sort of. In the map in my head. Which SHOULD be the supreme map of the World, but alas, apparently it makes no logical sense.

    You are so totally going to rawk! Texas. Which is AWESOME.

  8. Alli Says:

    Uh, Vegas is so much more exciting. And you can stay here for free, as long as you don’t hate cats.

  9. DaReaVeRoFBiTs Says:

    Texas???? the only things in texas are steers and queers, i think you might be a little queer!!! I cant wait to see pictures of you in a 40 gallon hat!

  10. ScottyGee Says:

    Yeah, really. Texas? Houston? The only thing good in Houston is Spoonie. Keep going West! Or come North to the bustling metropolis of Raleigh, NC. So you are going from hot in FL to probably hotter in TX. Zoiks! I hear they shoot organic folks down there! =)

  11. menoblog Says:

    Houston? Wow! Never been there myself. Keep us posted.

  12. tea Says:

    Best of luck and nice things in Texas!

  13. gary Says:

    I’m sure you will love it here in Houston. The only thing really bad about Houston is the hot, humid weather, and since you are coming from Florida I’m sure you are already used to that. Besides, as thin as you are, heat can’t be much of a problem.

    Good luck on your job search. There are lots of jobs here so I’m sure you will find a good one.

  14. Sheila Says:

    Good luck on your early apartment search… is Texas ready for you? :)

  15. Paddymick Says:

    Houston? Ick. Sorry, I have been through there on business and my opinion of the place is that I couldn’t get out of there quick enough. Hope you like it better than I did, Hanni! :)

  16. Tripping Daisy Says:

    Good luck in Houston! Although, I have a feeling Texas is going to be blind-sided bt you. :)

  17. ZACKLAR THE BARBARIAN Says:

    Off to the Armpit of Texas eh?
    Well, I’m going to make sure that my peeps there are warned of your approaching arrival and as soon as you’re ready to venture forth from BFE-Suburbia, they’ll be ready to play.

    Just remember. Houston has fantastic museums, but if you decide to wade out into the water in the channel, you may come back with hives on your legs.

  18. The Frog Plays Banjo Says:

    I hear they don’t have any real cats in Texas, anywhere. Zero el gatos. Unless this does the trick for ya:

    I currently have 3 pinned to the cube wall (calendars, not the actual cats, that’s not nice). Coming your way soon.

    Good luck and don’t try to pet the big cats there, they’re not nice and they’re not potty trained either:
