Me too. Have you set up your email yet?
12:00
@JackKellyEsq2: Yes, but I am having problems logging on. I need to contact IT.
12:00
when do you plan on moving to columbus?
JackKellyEsq2
12:01
Don't be surprised by a few problems. It took a little work to get mine ironed out. I hate that we have to use Outlook instead of Gmail.
JackKellyEsq2
12:02
I'll be in Columbus for good on July 15. I'll be making a few more trips to move things before then.
12:13
Nice, I am prob closer to Aug 1. I'm from the east coast so it's gonna be a one and done trip for me lol. Would have loved to go to the events they held but just not feasable unfortunately
JackKellyEsq2
12:16
I gotcha. I'm three hours south of Columbus so it's manageable. Especially now that I have an apartment. Me and the lady are having to finish our jobs and are taking a vacation before we finally move in for good so it's been a weird process. We had to lock down a place at Library so we had to get it early.
12:19
Sounds great. Nice that your girlfriend is coming with you. Planning on taking the month of july off from work.
12:20
maybe I will book a little trip before I head over for good too.
JackKellyEsq2
12:21
It's good to have a little break from work before school. She's going to OSU for vet school so it was a joint decision for us. I would definitely take a trip beforehand. Especially if you want to find a place. I really love Library Park.
12:22
have you spent significant time at library yet? Interested in how the soundproofing is over there. I was reading up on new complexes in columbus being built with cheap materials resulting in paper thin walls.
JackKellyEsq2
12:24
We've stayed overnight. The sound wasn't a big issue. We could hear a little bit from upstairs but not much. There was a guy down the hall blasting music, but it didn't bleed into our place. Haven't had any problems yet. We're a little older than typical students so we like our quiet and privacy lol
12:25
Yeah I'm older as well, quiet is important to me lol.
12:26
Trash chute is on each floor?
JackKellyEsq2
12:27
I think the amenities and the positives outweigh the negatives there. Trash chutes on each floor. Big stuff goes down to a trash room but an elevator takes you straight down.
12:28
as long a normal garbage bag can go in the chute on my floor im good lol
12:28
gonna give them a call today to move forward, dont want to lose out on a unit
JackKellyEsq2
12:28
Then you're good.
JackKellyEsq2
12:28

JackKellyEsq2
12:29
