I don’t want to move again, friends. If I never explore the world, and I die in Greensboro, North Carolina, it’ll be because of June 1st, 2004, a date which will be imprinted on my memory forever.
Needless to say, we were not quite as prepared as we had previously believed. By around 1pm on move-in day, we were sitting around the old apartment, wondering where all the folks who had offered up their moving services were. Eventually, they showed up, we rented a U-Haul, called in reinforcements from Durham (thank you, Mister Kirby) when things were looking down, and after four trips from old place to new, we had moved all of our stuff.
What a traumatic experience. We’re still living in boxes. I was so sore the day after that I called in sick. It’s just one of the hardest ordeals to go through. But we’re done, and now we’re on to the slightly more enoyable part of putting our home back together. Pictures will surely come.
Some good links this week:
- Enron Tapes Anger Lawmakers. This is why our free market, as it stands, does not work. Privatization of necessities like electricity or water is a very bad idea. These assholes deserve to be thrown in jail for a very long time. Scum of the earth.
- Buy the World a Coke… or a Pop… or is it a Soda?
- Museum Reveals How Houdini Performed His Metamorphosis and the BBC blabs on it, too. And a load of famous, overpaid illusionists are upset. It was a fake knot and a secret panel. I mean, come on.
Back to work tomorrow. The weekends are far too short these days…
