[State of the Jag] Ow.
Jan. 9th, 2008 02:44 pmWe've been loading the truck for about ... two and a half hours, off and on? Two hours solid time maybe. So far I'm averaging an injury per hour as inflicted by the boy dropping something on my feet or ankles, slamming the door into my arm. Ow. Not happy kitty.
But I did find Henry. And that's good.
As you have no doubt noticed, moving is occurring. Loading is occurring today, unloading will occur tomorrow. I literally have NO idea how often I'll be online today; it may be off and on all day today, it may be not again after this post until Saturday. People will get text messages to say I have arrived safe, and I will try and log on at least from the store to post that I've arrived safe. Um. I had other things to say, somewhere.
My bed appears to be all there, and in decent condition apart from the cobwebs and one bent transmission that can hopefully be unbent easily. I like my bed. It's a futon bunk bed that, essentially, gives sleeping space to three people in the floor space for a twin bed, as long as you can expand it out for the night. It'll stay in pieces until we get the apartment, of course. It's the largest thing I have to move. Big pain in the ass but it'll be good when I'm done. And then... um. Some running around today, mailing stuff. Going to Best Buy and getting an external hard drive for all the TV and music I'll be downloading while at my aunt's. TV at least, 'cause of the her not having one. I'll need to catch up.
Okay. More loading now.
ETA ~1800h: I can has 460GB External hard drive. Fear my music-storing capabilities.
The truck's ... I'd say about 2/3 loaded. A lot of the rest of the stuff is fragile and requires wrapping and positioning and not slamming it on the bed and shoving it down to the back. So. Um. Yeah. And then packing what's left in the upstairs, which is books and clothes. And my laptop.
Holyshit. I'm moving.
