via [livejournal.com profile] anneball and [livejournal.com profile] kestrel127, thus it's almost like a meme, but it's not.

1. almost all of my kitchen implements fit in my bread box.
2. no matter how many boxes of books you pack, there will still remain one pesky book that reveals itself as soon as you think you've packed all of your books.
3. the above is also true of CDs.
4. lying on the bed and whining about packing will gain you sympathy the first three or four times, but probably not after that, at least in a 24-hour span.
5. i could probably devise a full deck of playing cards from all of the member cards, punch cards, credit cards, public transportation cards, and business cards that i have collected since moving here.
6. the dogs + hardwood floors + box mazes + throwing toys = hours of fun.
7. leaving stinky dogs outside baking in the sun for hours makes for stinkier dogs.
8. do not put above dogs in car, even for the 6-minute drive to the farmer's market, because the car will smell indefinitely afterwards.
9. the berwyn heights garbage people are fabulous, and will pick up all of your garbage, even if it's seven bags and two giant cans of it.
10. take pictures off wall before piling boxes in front of them, two rows deep.
I have been doing su|do|ku puzzles for a little over a month now, and I can solve all of the ones on websudoku.com that I've tried in less than 20 minutes, including the evil ones. Now where am I supposed to turn when the newspaper version is easy and I want something a little more challenging? Maybe the Boston Globe crossword will be more useful to me than the Washington Post, whose puzzles -- even the Friday puzzles -- aren't worth the ink. Boo.

Tomorrow is the big day with the getting of the truck. We made the last batch of cookies today so we could pack the mixer. The last appliances standing are the espresso machine, the water boiler and the rice maker. We took the bed off of its legs so that it's just on the platform we sleep on, and not four feet in the air.

Anyone who wants to stop by and say hello tomorrow (and possibly pick up a box and put it in a truck) is welcome to.
