Chapter One, Packing

Stacy is trying to whittle her CD collection down to 256 units in order to eliminate the massive amount of jewel cases that would have to move with us. She is putting her collection into a "CD book" and Lori and I are (sort of) watching the Royal Tenebaums. Well, and writing this. We leave for Brooklyn in ONE WEEK. The apartment is secured, the U-Haul is rented, and the few friends we have that are willing to help us load our stuff onto it are ready to be at my apartment on Saturday morning. This is really happening and we are pretty much unprepared.

While this is an exciting move, all-in-all, it has been a stressful month. We were almost taken by surprise when we realized that we only had a month left to pack, and now we have a week, and I have packed two boxes. Two. Boxes.

I am nearly at the delirium point, and Stacy has to be up at 7:30 a.m. to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, because she said she would, and we are running out of time to have one last hurray with the people we love that are (unfortunately) staying in Buffalo.

We will, no doubt, keep you posted on the craziness of packing and trying to get ourselves ready TO MOVE as the week unfolds, but we are a little bit busy right at the moment, and kicking ourselves for our lack of foresight.
