i just got home from helping josh & lielle pack their cars and drive off to new york without me. :( i can't believe we got everything in those cars. there was just enough room.

we all did a lot of driving around today (well, lielle & i did at least; josh will be for the next 6 hours) and carrying bunches of stuff (you know, someone really needs to think of a way to make tvs and computer monitors out of a lighter plastic--not necessarily styrofoam but something along those lines maybe a bit more friendly to the environment and to the backs of those carrying the objects) and oh, the stairs, the stairs!!!! i counted exactly 53 steps between their apartment and the ground, which means i did like a LOT of stairs today, more than i normally do. let me tell ya, i never want to look at green carpeting ever again cuz that's what i stared at for a good hour or so.

don't get me wrong--i don't mind at all; josh & lielle are the type of friends you'd fly to the moon for. i'm just glad i was off work today and available cuz it would've been hard on josh's messed up knee, all those stairs. and i don't have to drive 850 miles in the next 24 hours.

i did get a box of my clothes packed which is like a 10000% improvement from the day before, when i got like 0 boxes packed. turns out my brother's going to stay in my apartment for a few days anyway, so i'm not going to really move in to stay there until probably this weekend. it's all good--now i have time to pack for the big move on saturday. i'm sure once i get started, i'll get it done quickly. or i could just throw everything out the window...
