Anyone wanna help me move?

*walks carefully around the mountains of boxes located seemingly ramdomly around her apartment*

*finds computer, sits down and posts to Hostboard*

So, me and the gf (now where is she? probably lost within the boxes somewhere in the bedroom) are moving this weekend into a bigger and hopefully MUCH nicer apartment complex. The hell I've gone through living at my current place, let me tell you, I'll be VERY happy to be somewhere else.

The new place is bigger, has this pond with tons of ducks in the middle of it (the complex, not the apartment), and should be peaceful (that's the key word). We're excited and looking forward to it. Normal air conditioning system, management that responds to your request to fix things, an access gate that works, waterpipes that don't break-nearly ruining your comic book collection, etc, etc. I'll be packing up the computer soon, so, I imagine I'll be gone from Hostboard starting Thursday or Friday and won't be back until sometime late next week.

Oh, and we got movers because I am sick of killing my back trying to get all our furniture moved around. It'll be worth the money.

Bran, you know I'd be there if I could....

*pities*

Bran, if you DID end up packing your girlfriend in one of those boxes, at least be nice enough to poke holes in it so she can breath.

And say hi to the ducks at the new place for me.

I'll help you move! I'll help (especially if ducks are involved [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img] )

Um, that is, if you happen to be moving to Winnipeg...

(ps: moving sucks! I hope you and the gf survive it Bran)

Hope your move goes well!

Would help if I could but can only wish you and yours some luck.

QUACK!

A pond? Uh, how nice to also have tons of mosquitos around in the warm season (which, in Houston, I think it lasts all year long...)!
It will be funny to see if the ducks eat 'em or if THEY eat the ducks! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Anyone, bets? [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

[erisesoteric]

Never underestimate the power of the ducks...

[Branflakes]

Never underestimate the mosquitos in Houston...

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone. We're almost done packing, errrr, gf is almost done packing (she's done most of it. i just get to go through stuff and defend my reason for keeping it... [img]wink.gif[/img] ). I am a pack rat.

We also just realized that we'll have to move my comic book collection by ourselves. Otherwise, our box count goes up by half. Don't want to spend the extra money.

And, no hurting the ducks!

Sounds like you're moving to a nicer place. Could get a little noisy when duck hunting season comes around. You might want to stay away from the windows that time of year.
