All systems: Go! Full speed ahead!

What a busy day. In the space of about four hours, I:
- Filled out the application for the new apartment
- Got it approved
- Filled out the 40 page lease
- Got it approved
- Got power turned on in the new place
- Got Comcast set up again
- Bought a Comcast-approved modem (rent from Comcast for $10 a month, minimum 12 months, or buy one outright for $70? I wish I had known buying was an option before I rented from them for TEN YEARS).
- Contacted the movers, though haven't heard back from them yet, which is a tad worrying. I'll contact them tomorrow if I don't hear from them by lunchtime.

Since I'm moving on Monday (movers permitted...), I was worried where the modem would be delivered, so I'm trying Amazon Locker for the first time. There are lockers in various placed (in my case, at a 7-11 up the road) and Amazon will deliver it there. Then you punch in a code, and one of the locker doors open for you. Hopefully that will go smoothly.

Saturday: Pick up keys to new place.
Monday: Movers.
Tuesday: Turn keys to current place in.

Hopefully by this time next week, I'll be settled into my new apartment FOR GOOD (or at least for a year...).

Damn! Congrats! I've been lurking about your apartment saga; I just hope the new place is loads better than this one.

I've used Amazon Locker before, where they have it installed in a nearby grocery store. I'm pretty sure you'll be fine with it, Amazon has delivery down to a well-oiled science.

I never had a good feeling about my current apartment, and I have a really good feeling about the new one, so hopefully that will hold true.

Good to hear about the Locker! Hopefully my package will arrive today and it will all go smoothly.
