Got enough stuff to sleep, cook and dress over to the new place yesterday, with the help of my sister, her pick-up truck and [livejournal.com profile] funny_socks. My sister rocks. We got every large item of furniture into the truck, down to the new place and out of the truck in about two and a half hours, and despite a grand total of zero ropes or tarps, kept the whole stack in the back of the truck over the course of the typically pothole-laden trip. Nobody tailgated us though -- the stack did oscillate threateningly!

There’s still some paperwork to deal with at both ends of the move, and phone/DSL service to await eagerly at the new place. I’m semi-settled, but the end of wanting to do something and needing to unpack the prerequisites is in sight.

Ran into a whole bunch of my new neighbours last night: [livejournal.com profile] moonlightjoy, [livejournal.com profile] syracusepoet and [livejournal.com profile] emjayne -- if the respirator’s any use to you, I still have it by the way -- and started my acclimatization to the new blend of street noises outside my window (less sirens and general craziness, but less of a baffling effect from other buildings).

I’m unprogrammerly today, but fortunately there is reading and distribution of documentation to do. I hope I’m more with it soon.

Welcome to the neighbourhood :)

Turns out, we pulled out of the parade at the last minute. No need to complete the painting of the float, so no need for your respirator. Thanks for the offer, much appreciated!

BTW: "oscillating stacks" would be a fun band name. *smiles*
