Oh, and the roof repairs are scheduled for tomorrow morning. Then a tile is left open for the possum to exit at night to feed. Then “the possum guy” comes over during the evening and scouts out the location of the possum and closes the tiles so it can’t get back in.

Then we are either possum free on Tuesday or it tears the roof apart to make another entry point into the ceiling space. The way this whole housing saga has developed in the last year my money is on the latter 🙂

In theory all of my stuff could fit in one box …

Can’t you pay someone to catch the possum @trcanberra and then have possum pie or possum curry for your tea? A celebratory meal for when you leave.

I went to Boston and went to a Christmas festival with my mom today. CHRISTMAS. Thanksgiving hasn’t even happened and people are acting like Christmas is next week. Luckily, I was getting so mad at the crowds and my mom for getting us lost we left as soon as we could.

…and that could explain why I DON’T want to live in a big city

More packing. 46 boxes done and I’m completely and totally exhausted.

I pick up the keys to the new place tomorrow, pack the electronics on Tuesday and then the move is scheduled for Wednesday.

You pack like I do. During the last few days of packing up for a move, I can do without a chair, coffee table – hell, maybe even a bed – but don’t take my music away until it is absolutely time to go!

Best of luck with the move, trc.

Our cell phone contract is expiring soon and we are eligible for new phones. My aunt’s new phone includes a free tablet. She already has two tablets (she loves to have gizmos), so she’s giving it to me. It should be coming in the mail any day now. 

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

They might as well have them in cereal packets – I have lost track of the number I have given away.

Are you going to keep them so that some future generation can clone you?

I guess that would be better than listening to ‘Savoy Truffle ‘ while in the dentist’s chair. “You’ll have to have them all pulled out…”

Here’s a little refrain to help you feel better about losing the two temporary choppers.

Two more molars will then take their place,
They will fill the holes inside your face.
In this world there’s nothing they would rather do,
‘Cause their happy just to help you chew.

Best of luck, SG! apple01

But of course! Y’know, I’m just so fab, I could make a lot o’ dough off of them when I’m famous. a-hard-days-night-george-10 

Thanks all and it actually went okay. The radio gods were smiling upon me– they played ‘Junk’ when I came in, and I’d just been thinking about that song for the first time in a couple months. I figured it was a good omen. 

Edit: And the reason they’re being fired is not because they were not doing their duties, or because they had no right to be there, but for the simple reason that there simply wasn’t enough room for them if my front teeth were to be moved to where they ought to be.

I had probably one of the scariest moments of my life so far yesterday. I was in my moms car, waiting for her to finish up my brothers conferences, and I accidentally tried opening the door. Suddenly, the car alarm went off, I jumped, started shaking and maybe a tear or two (I know, overreacting) and I had to wait in a parking lot while all the lights were flashing for my mom to come turn it off, which I was lucky enough to have texted her the second it went off. And that’s how I ended up going to 6 conferences instead of 4 (2 were my brothers that I was present in).

Wow, that felt kinda great to get off my chest. 🙂

Well, the move has been a totaly F’ing disaster (and I very rarely swear).

Rained most of the day.

Internet and phone guy came too early and can’t cable in the rain. Left. Then it got sunny (when he was supposed to have come), but he can’t come back for 8 days.

The circuit breaker is faulty so no electricity to half of the house, including the kitchen. No cooking and lost all my frozen food as no fridge.

Broken stuff – don’t get me started.

I’m not much on the mobile version of the site so may not be around much until my home internet is on.

Why would the phone guy come in the rain if he cant do anything? Tho it should always be remembered that they really are useless.
