I'm pretty sure I can't drive a U-Haul.
I've driven a big U-Haul before. It was an adventure. In conclusion, don't.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Do you have any vacation or sick time you can cash out?

Nope. I don't have vacation or sick days like that.

Having movers pack me and move me was the Best Thing Ever when I moved to Seattle. I did a lot of preparation and sorting and stuff, but they packed me so quickly!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Having someone pack is so awesome if you can afford it, and obviously a necessity for some people.

If we ever move again we're hiring people to pack. It's just too hard.

It's more added stress at an already stressful time.

My parents said they'd help pay, but they want a few more estimates, which is reasonable. Except that I've already called every mover around here who does interstate moves, and this was the only one that got back to me and had time available in July. So then my mother started looking up movers online and calling them to get estimates, and found someone in Florida that contracts out to local people. So I talked to that guy, and he gave me an estimate that was a lot cheaper, but I looked them up online, and there are hundreds of reviews of them, all terrible. So, no. I think that the estimate that I got is really over-estimating the total weight (I looked up some stuff about approximate weight for different size apartments, and even considering that I have a whole lot of books, his estimate was pretty high), so I emailed to ask if I'd pay based on the actual weight or the estimated weight.

Thrive to spite them
One more paycheck is good.
I don't have an ear infection. My ear drum is red but not infected red. The nurse practitioner thinks I have fluid build up in the middle ear causing pressure and pain. So I have a steroid nasal spray to take 2x a day and sudafed (the good kind from behind the counter) and I was told to take ibuprofen for the pain. If it doesn't get better or it gets worse I'm supposed to call them back.
This feels like a weird repeat of Feb with the ongoing sickness but I'm trying to remind myself that it's not the same and also unlike then I'm aware that not having a clear cut diagnosis and whatever is a triggery thing for me and that I need to watch my thought patterns and check in with my therapist and stuff.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
askye, if it reassures you at all, I had fluid in my middle ear like that, and sudafed and a nasal spray helped it a lot.
