It's moving day Wednesday, MKF 11/27/02

[WbBuffyfan00]

Yes Kittens...it is indeed moving day for me. I know I posted about a month and a half ago that I had bought a house and now moving day is finally here. Unfortunately everyone who was going to help me has cancelled on me now. It's alright though...I'll make it through the day.

So for a W/T question of the day. Do you think they used magic when it was time for them to move...or did they do it the old fashioned way with help from the scoobies? I know I could sure use some magic today. I just don't see me moving the entertainment center by myself. Anyway wish me luck and have a wonderful day!

Congrats on finally moving. That's so exciting. Well, the actually labor part of it blows but the being in a new house rocks. It sucks that everyone bailed on you, though.

As for Willow and Tara I think they did it the old fashioned way. Tara wouldn't have liked using magick for that. I definately think they had the Scoobies help them.

Good luck in the move.

I have to agree that Willow and Tara would have resorted to the old fashioned way of moving house. With Anya ordering, Buffy and Xander doing the donkey work, Dawn noseying into all of their stuff and Giles 'coordinating' whilst reading a particularly interesting book and cleaning his glasses every now and then. Leaving the magic to their efforts in breaking the new rooms in.*ahem*

Oh, good lucky with your move, Amy. That's really tough that everyone cancelled, but you know, slow and steady wins the race, etc. Don't wear yourself out too early!

When my gf and I moved into our house, we were lucky to have people helping us, but it was the hottest day I can EVER remember in Pittsburgh, we had to keep hosing everyone off.

Ah, memories.

Anyway, good luck! As for the Scoobies, I think probably Tara would say ix-nay on the agick-may, but I bet Buffy would get LWTB and kind of throw heavy objects around.

I'm certainly reminded of Buffy's moving day in "Family". Lots of arguments and chaos, but it all gets done in the end.

And, certainly, holding off the official housewarming so that some 'house warming' can be done.

[darkmagicwillow]

I know what you're going through as I'm moving on Friday. Good luck on your move, Amy, and if you'll please excuse me, I'll get back to packing.

Yet another reason I wish I'd known Juli longer

Worst move I ever did was into a flat I used to rent in town. It was on the third floor, with those security doors at the bottom, so going up and down and having to buzz every time was a fucker.

And when you're being helped by a dad who's as much a short-tempered control freak as yourself...well, it never goes well.

Edited because I am a self-obsessed idiot who forgot to say good luck with your move, Amy!

[walker(d)]

Good luck to all the kitties who are moving! Having helped my sister move not too long ago I can see why people don't do it more often, it is so stressful.

I can see Willow having a complete plan for the day and giving everyone little itinerary's so that it all goes according to her plan. They would of course all be in different coloured ink so that no one got theirs mixed up with anyone else's.

Oh, and if any British Kittens happen to live near a Fopp record shop they've got 'The Prime Gig' DVD on sale for 3. Which is about its money's worth given that it's a shit film and only worth buying to see Amber Benson and Julia Ormond.

Umm, Juli? If your moving days tend to involve (or devolve into) lesbians hosing each other off, may I be the first here to volunteer to assist you with your next move?

Ok Will vamp no more bloody killer, but she (mean Rayne) looks as Will - red hairs, green eyes, black and red leather clothes. Realy she is Will. Somewhere I read that ,maybe, filmed this game - and my favourite actress for this - ALYSON HANNIGAN.

Good luck with the move Amy.

As for W/T, after the way they moved Buffy out of her dorm room in Family, I'm sure they would do it the old fashioned way.

And for those (like myself ) who are fans of Mozilla, 1.2 is officially out

[WebWarlock]

Avern,

That is kinda cool.

Being a huge Tomb Raider fan this looks really good. Plus it is a red-headed, green eyed girl that kicks ass and kills vamps.

If anyone else wants to see this go to www.bloodrayne.com.
It looks fairly cool. I might have a new item on my Christmas list.

What else have you heard about this?

Warlock

[darkmagicwillow]

Ooh, a new Mozilla! I like your sig quote, Warduke. It is one browser to rule them all: how many have the Mozilla engine under them? Now if I just had time to download and install it today...

Yeah, yeah, I'm supposed to be packing, but I've been on hold for the last 20 minutes trying to get my DSL cancelled so I might as well read the Kitten as I'm way tired of their Christmasy hold music. Aren't they supposed to wait til [b:74890c8075]after[/b:74890c8075] Thanksgiving?

[LeatherQueen]

Well... moving. It sucks, but I'd rather be doing that than what I'm doing now. Which is sitting at work in an almost empty office building because everyone except ME gets to leave early. So not fair. *sigh*

Anyway, good luck to those who are moving this week, and I think I shall be off to wander around the board while I wait for the hours to tick by. *tick tick tick*

[Puff]

Good luck with the move Amy and I hope it all goes well. Thank goodness we get a nice long weekend here in the US now, should give me time to write about Shakespeare.

Enid and Emma, picture if you will....

A sweltering July day. Seven women, all wearing white t-shirts that cling to their breasts, highlighting curves or angles.

Slowly, to a piped-in soundtrack of slow and sultry Melissa Etheridge, a figure emerges from the crowd of women's bodies....

Is it a stevedore, all hard muscles and delicious curves? No. It is my girlfriend, and she is hot from lifting boxes, and so I lift the hose and send a light spray over her. She puts her box down, and tosses her hair back, and I can see rainbows in the droplets as she arches her back and....

Riiiiiiight.

Okay now, get real. It was like 100 degrees and everyone SMELLED. And everyone kept giving us dirty looks because we have so much freaking stuff. And now no one calls us anymore.

Hose that off, ladies.

p.s. But she is like a stevedore. She says to tell you that.

[BoredNow99]

Juli, I was right there with you until you scratched that needle straight across the record and cut old Melissa off in her prime.

Goddamn you. Such a picture perfect moving day and then you go and shatter my illusions.

Although, you did redeem yourself by pulling me back in with the whole "my gf's a stevedore" claim. And so modest with it, that one

[drlloyd11]

Can I once again try to convince some Boston area Kitten to take these 2 Indigo girls/Amime Mann tickets for dec 10 off my hands? Orig 50 bucks (orchestra) now best offer.

Oh god, I am pathetic!

[dulcinea]

Amy, I'm sharing your pain. Right now, I'm sitting in a house full of boxes, trying to ignore them. I'm not actually moving until next Friday, but I have SO much to pack before then. Who knew I could fit so much crap in to such a little itty bitty two bedroom flat? And, why, in a fit of optimism did I tell the moving company, "no, just leave me some boxes, and I'll pack myself". Next time, I'm gonna pay them to do it.

good luck with the move!!

[darkmagicwillow]

Juli, you've got me laughing out loud with your story. The ending was so perfect. After reading about your book collection on another thread, I understand why they wouldn't call you anymore.

[taralicious]

Tulipp-there just aren't many instances where you can use the word 'stevedore' in a sentence so my hat's off to you for such a descriptive and visually arresting story.
