Ack!
Friend who was going to help me move is sick. Down to me, my mom, garden_girl34's sister, and one guy friend (but him only for a couple of hours).
Anyone spare some time to help move some stuff in north Oakland?
Yeah, I didn't think so. -
Woot!
We officially have internet access at the new place. Not much else here (some boxes that were already packed and a rug) but when we do get everything else here, cable and internet will be done. Of course, we still need to set-up the router for wireless goodness, and set-up vonage. But still, connected to the outside world=done! -
Packing it in
For all the lovely people who offered to help me pack... You rock!
I will be packing most weeknights this week. I am usually home by or before 7 PM, but do warn me if you think you can make it.
Miss noirem, your book boxes and professional book handling services are very welcome. Delegating book packing is one of the easiest things to do in a move, ( Read more... ) -
Call for help
OK, life does tend to hit hard and fast sometimes. This can be a good thing, but that does not mean it is not challenging.
So, chaosloom and I got a place in Piedmont, which = good. We need to move before Faire starts = challenging. Add to that the idea that we would really prefer to have a camper/trailer set-up instead of a tent for Faire (we even ( Read more... ) -

The street outside my office will be closed down for the disaster dress rehearsal. Elsewhere, or perhaps even in the same location, there is forecast of a zombie uprisingPersonally, I ( Read more... ) -

dream boards...
Sort of amused that I am getting into using this tool. It is rather a consumer whore's playground, if you ask me, but fun all the same.

Home, home
Wow, thanks for all the good advice on weather to buy a house or not!
As it turns out, we had looked at a place we liked last night that, although we had the same problem with chaosloom's credit, the option to co-sign with a family member was also made available. As it turns out, I was having lunch with my dad, so he kindly offered to co-sign. So, since ( Read more... ) -
To rent or own, that is the question
The last couple of weekends have been taken up with the great apartment search. I love where I live, but it really is not big enough for me, my lovely roomies and chaosloom. And really, in align with that "starting our new lives together" thing that we are embarking on, it seems like a good time to strike out on our own. Timing wise, we should probably move ( Read more... ) -
