Packing, packing, packing...

Ah, I am in the middle of packing and cleaning. So much fun...

I had originally planned on using one of those PODS things to move. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check this out.

It was going to cost me a cool two grand though, but I thought it would be easiest to move my stuff. Then I talked to my mom and dad. They convinced me that shipping my stuff UPS was the way to go. I was skeptical, but as of now, I've paid about a tenth of what I would have used for the PODS thing.

The moral of the story? Your mom and dad are usually (not always) but usually right. Heh...

To save on what I'm shipping, I am getting rid of everything that I can possible. So far I have sold all of the furniture in my apartment except for: my bed, a rocking chair, saucer chair, TV, TV stand and baker's rack. My desk is leaving tomorrow and I have to figure out where I'm going to do my computing. Oi vay....

2nd post of the week! Yay!

Yeah, okay... not much sarcasm there... heh...

Anyway, second post of the week. Not much to report. I am packing up my life to move back east right now. I am trying to sell off as much of my stuff as possible (furniture and the like) and ship everything else via UPS.

So far it's going well. I managed to sell about half of my furniture. I'm not making much, but it's still extra cash which is nice. The UPS shipping is a pain though. I put in a request for UPS to pick up last Friday in the afternoon... what do they do? They show up at noon, even though I tell them to stop by after 3:30. Go figure.

Oh, well... We'll try this again. My building has a doorman, so I'll leave the boxes with them this time.

On a different note, got the lovely news today that I might not get my bar results until November, instead of October. AAAAGH!!!! The sheer torture man....
