panic and moving
Four and a half years ago, I put everything I cared about in a Saturn and drove halfway across the country to start a new chapter in my life in Iowa.
Today, I have too much stuff to be able to do that, and this whole moving concept is driving me to shaking fits of frustration.
If anyone wants:
At this point I'm ready to mail all my books to $sysadmin and do this the way I know how to.
Today, I have too much stuff to be able to do that, and this whole moving concept is driving me to shaking fits of frustration.
If anyone wants:
- a queen-size pillow-top mattress and box spring
- a black metal four-poster canopy bed frame, queen-sized, with canopy
- a matching nightstand
- a twin-sized daybed with cherry wood corner posts and black metal sides
- a cushy blue recliner
- a hat tree with a marble base
- a couple of glass-topped metal end tables
- a glass-topped wooden coffee table
- a butcher-block table
- a metal cabinet on wheels with a hole cut in the back so that it works as an entertainment centre
- a couple of desks
- a plastic deck table with four chairs and an umbrella
At this point I'm ready to mail all my books to $sysadmin and do this the way I know how to.

I'll warn you - I have a bum arm, a bum thumb, and I scream like a little girl when I get pushed around too much. Ya tebya ne bous! Davai pabiomsa! (Poorly spelled Russian - I apologize)

Actually, the army has never moved me because I've been in the Reserve or the Guard the whole time I've been in and have thus never had to PCS. But I'm not afraid of tape dispensers; I learned to tame them when I was working at SGI.

..however, I am intending to probably move across country soon too, so then I'll just have to get rid if it ;)

Hell, almost every stick of furnature I own was gotten second-hand in a college town... who knows how many people have already fondled it.
