Thanks , I’ve recently been looking for info approximately this subject for a long time and yours is the best I’ve discovered so far. But, what concerning the bottom line? Are you positive in regards to the source?

Your post about moving was refreshing, because it contains some actual humor, writing style and creativity. Thanks for the lift in this massive blogosphere.

Les Says: Well, thank you. I’ll try to stay funny in the face of all the mundane.

Captain Underpants now lives in Warsaw, NY. We’re hoping that as the weather continues to cool down that he will either A. put on some real clothes. or B. go inside out of our sight.

Les Says: I really miss Captain Underpants… I can’t hear anything from outside in the new place at all, which might actually be a good thing, considering that if I DID hear anything “interesting”, I wouldn’t be able to see it happen.

This, apparently, is the biggest hurdle of transition: we’re fairly isolated/insulated below ground. The hermit side of me likes this very much… the people-watcher side of me is jonesing something fierce.

Wow. You got a kid to pick up BOX NUMBER TWO? Holy shitski, man, that’s a miracle.

I hate moving with the passionate heat of a thousand suns. Nay, a million. Hope it all went well…it’s amazing the stuff you’ll find you can live without. The last time I looked at all my “stuff”, I said to myself…Self? Is it really worth it to haul this crapola 800 miles?

Sure did make it easier to prioritize.

Great post — hopefully, you’re in the sauna even as we speak. *sigh*

Les Says: Sigh…*, too. I STILL have not had a sauna! Between the J.O.B., moving boxes and furniture and RE-BUYING furniture to replace furniture that WOULD NOT GO THROUGH THE F-ING DOOR, and trying to get furniture storage for furniture that won’t fit but cannot be gotten rid of (pain of death/family heirloom issues) and Impending Wedding Reception/Future Hang-Over Concerns and a sauna full of teenage girls, I can’t get my turn.

800 MILES?! I’m moving a little over 800 yards, I think. I can’t imagine what you went through! And no. I don’t want details, please.

Okay, all I have is a smallish Saturn, and a medium sized boy. The vampire blackjack dealer could amuse us all with strange card tricks, though. And we’d be an enormous help in the eating pizza/drinking beer category. All in the name of lessening procrastinatey.

Les Says: So far, no pizza (what the hell kind of move IS this?!), just a shitload of crab legs and lobster tails, with thanks to Fluffy-the-Car-Shark.

And beer…

And rum…

And my legs hurt from too many flights of stairs over and over and over again… and a lazy-arse child who flakes on me after picking up Box Number Two…

Oh my you are brave to take a place sight unseen! Moving as we all now is among the most rotten experiences one can have.. but you have a sauna to rest from your exertions!
Captain Underpants, huh? We had one of those….

Les Says: I’ve slept here for three nights. Haven’t had a sauna yet, can you believe that?! No time, dammit! Snarl!

Just so you know, Suzi does not speak for me. I can’t make it, I’m washing my hair that day/night/weekend.

Les Says: …and making my mittens. Don’t forget my mittens, Dale – winter is around the corner.

Les right now I am in the process of moving as well, and let me tell you, I will be so happy once I am out of the house I am in, like the house is alright, but my landlord is a real piece of work… Although I will be happy to move, I will miss the Sault…

Les Says: We’ll miss you, too, Nathan… the J.O.B. won’t be the same, now. You’ll come visit me here, though, right…?

Captain Underpants lived down our street for awhile, I’m certain of it. Except he was wearing tiny purple speedos and sunbathing on his roof.
Good luck with the moving, it’s ranked up there with the stress of giving birth to a herd of elephants.

Les Says: A herd of elephants would be most helpful right now, too…

You know I would move heaven and earth to help you move, all for an hour, uninterrupted in the sauna. Right?

Les Says: You will have many hours in the sauna, Betch. Uninterrupted? Mmmm…. meh. Prolly not.
