And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

But you're going to have to pack everything in one manner or another, anyhow.

Well of course, but in the one case that means really packing really everything, and in the other it means really packing almost everything, and throwing the rest in the car at the last minute.

I spent several years moving every year. Trust me, I do know how to cull. I just also know that there's going to be a lot of fiddly crap that ends up in the essential pile that I hate hate hate to pack. Also, I have two old computers to dispose of. Blech.

(Edited because what I hate to do is PACK the fiddly crap. Moving it's relatively easy.)

ION, Russ Feingold is rocking my world on Meet the Press. Catch the rerun if you can.

What is even happening?

And the funny thing is, no matter how ruthless you are, once you're in the new place and unpacking boxes, there will still be tons of shit where you pull it out and go "I thought I needed that?"

This is too true, brenda. I thougt I was ruthless when we moved here three years ago, then got her and rid myself of more.

Well of course, but in the one case that means really packing really everything, and in the other it means really packing almost everything, and throwing the rest in the car at the last minute.

I always count 'throwing the rest in the car at the last minute' as packing; it's just not as neat.

I just also know that there's going to be a lot of fiddly crap that ends up in the essential pile that I hate hate hate to move.
I hate that stuff.
Also, I have two old computers to dispose of. Blech.
What if they got left in the storage space, accidentally?

Definitely. I got rid of a ton of stuff before the move, and I am still getting rid of more.

Art Crawl!!!

Must check for rerun of MTP.

I enjoyed Guy's show -- I was a little worried but it was good.

And ION:

The New York Times says that Diane Farr got married AND has an interview with David Krumholtz. . . uh unrelated things.

But you're moving out, too. What if you accidentally left them in the storage space?

I missed it, but it is the Food Network, so they will probably repeat it a million times.

There isn't a storage place. There's just the apartment.
