"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

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?"

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.

What is even happening?

That means Val gets to deal with them. Thanks Cindy. Thought we were buds :).

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

What if you snuck them into Not!Emily's boxes?

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

Mostly lurking...

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

One time I was moving within the same building, up one flight of stairs, so I didn't think really packing everything was so important. My friends HATED me, as they carried random things up the stairs. I am terrible at the end of packing -- I always think I'm "really almost totally done" when actually there are several more boxes worth of stuff that needs taking care of. (Huge thanks to msbelle for getting me over the hump the last time I moved.) Yet another reason why I should never leave this apartment.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I found that last-minute tossing into the car wasn't an option. It was just another thing to pack. And stuff had to get tossed if it couldn't fit in it discreetly--no computer in the back seat, for instance.

I didn't mind driving across the country, but I'd rather have done it with an empty car.

Oh, PS Emily: Once you live in CA and have bought a car and are a teacher, you can drive cross-country next summer too see people. THAT sounds fun.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

"Spamalot" was very silly, and a lot of fun. Also, I had a mojito with dinner. (Never had one before, but all the talk in the F2F thread made me curious)

In a little bit we will head to the mall so I can buy a new swimsuit. whee.
