Yesterday, I signed the papers to rent an apartment in Burlington. Every international man of mystery (to use Titus Brown's introductory description of me from PyCon) needs at least one pied-à-terre and this is mine :-)
For the last five years, I've lived in a hotel whenever working in the US. I felt an immediate sense of stability walking out of the leasing office yesterday with the keys to my apartment.
Now I just need to buy a bed and bedding, some towels, toilet paper, a desk and chair, and arrange Internet access and I'm all set! Other furniture, kitchenware and household "essentials" can wait :-)
