I'll go one step that's even FURTHER than those already mentioned.
That would be to be prepared to part with more $$$ on a pizza or some other
ready-to-eat (read FAST FOOD) food as I'm sure the LAST thing you will
wanna think about is COOKING!!!
And you can it delivered right to your door!!!
On top of that, if ya can get your computer hooked up fairly easily and
quickly and can get online from you new home, point your browser to the
Papa John's website at www.papajohns.com if there's one nearby so then this
way you can order pizza WITHOUT being placed on ETERNAL HOLD for like
FOREVER!!!! I have that site bookmarked and use it whenever I wanna order
a pizza (BTW, they DO have the option of paying via cash AND personal check
for your online order, though you may wanna have them call you back so you
can give them any further instructions or in case there are problems!)
Pretty neat huh???
