hestergray | Sleep sounds like a good idea

I went to the Harry Potter: The Last Extravaganza thing last night. It was pretty fun, but if there were more books coming out, I would choose another midnight party to go to. This one was just so crowded. It was cool seeing so many people dressed up as different characters (and there were TONS), and the businesses had neat decorations and stuff, but it was just hard to move with so many people around. And there were really long lines for all the little fun things going on. So we didn't do much. Mostly people-watched.

I was #795 with my line pass. I got my book at about 1:15 AM and got home at about 2 AM. I read a little bit and finally went to sleep.

Then this morning, I was up at 7 AM to prepare for my crew coming at 8. (My crew = Dad, Emily, and Karen.) With three vehicles (2 cars, 1 SUV with a trailer attached), we got pretty much everything in two big trips. I went back to the old apartment later to get the rest of the essentials. There's still a few odds and ends there, and I need to go back and clean, but it won't take much.

I treated everyone to a delicious lunch in the middle of the job, and we were done at about 3:45. The cable guy came and hooked up my cable and internet, obviously, and I figured I could write a little update while the Indians game is on. (It's almost over.)

Moving is hard work. My back hurts. And my legs and feet. And I'm so sleepy. And everything is a mess right now. I did quite a bit of unpacking, but there's still a lot to be done. When it's finished, I'll take pictures. But I still need rugs, and curtains, and a desk. (I'm using this move as an excuse to get rid of the really huge desk that I didn't like very much. Maybe I'll be able to find a better one at a thrift store.) Currently, my computer is sitting on the floor, as am I with the keyboard in my lap. My feet keep falling asleep and it's kind of uncomfortable. So it was nice chatting, but I'm going to go sit somewhere else.
