Compared to my last move, this one is like a walk in the park. Maybe it’s because I’m only moving 3.5 miles away from where I’m currently at, instead of 800. Maybe it’s because I get to take a few days to make the whole move, and can thus move a little at a time. Maybe it’s because there’s a whole lot less bitching at me for being a big gay disaster. Maybe it’s because I’m almost free from the crazy lesbian roommate who may as well have “666″ tattooed across her chest. Or maybe it’s a combination of all of the above.
This by no means gets me off the hook in terms of moving being a shit ton of work. I’m seriously wiped out. The only reason I’m awake to write this right now is because I took an hour-long nap earlier today. After carrying a box that I had mistakenly packed too full of textbooks and other large volumes, thus making it very fucking heavy, and actually managing to carry the thing into my new place, only to have the thing burst open as soon as I got it in the door, I figured I deserved the shuteye. Not to mention license to write lengthy and confusing run-on sentences.
I can’t believe it, but I’m literally down to less than 72 hours left under the reign of Lady Lucifer. I was thrilled to learn, upon my return, that when I stopped my incoming mail due to my extended absence from LA, it stopped ALL the mail to the house; she actually had to be the one to go to the main post office and pick up all the mail. The fact that she made it a point to inform me of this occurrence the moment I walked in the door indicated that she wasn’t too thrilled about the ordeal. I took it as a testament to my awesomeness. Aw, yeah!

::sniff sniff:: What’s that smell? Freedom? why yes it is!!
Not too much longer! Hooray for that!
And I definitely, definitely know how you feel. I had to move out of my home in December because of an ill-matched roommate situation and that move was the fastest one of my life because I had a HUGE reason to be oht of there and be oht of there fast.
Sending positive vibes your way! Three days!
How’s the light at the end of the tunnel looking for you? I’m glad your move is going so well! Sorry I missed your chat yesterday… I’m having severe internet problems. It doesn’t work when I want it to and it flips on when I don’t want it to. Fickle internet gods.
The light at the end of the tunnel looks fabulous! And I miscalculated… now less than 48 hours! Evil roommate woman wants me out tomorrow, not on the first. Good thing the new landlord is super cool and is letting me move in early. Almost there!
So good! Congratulations on breaking free, surviving a move, and moving on!
Woohoo!! You’re out the door and into your own place. Funny about your mail stop stopping all the mail. It’s not your fault someone at the PO screwed up. Man, what a bitch.
I’ve been “postally challenged” for the last month or so. Evidently (according to the ex-roommate), one resident at the address stopping the mail stops the mail for the whole place. It took her a week and a half to notice that her mail had stopped though, which is telling. About her lack of character.
