Success in unpacking
Why I put the futon hardware in a bag with nothing else but shoes, I really don't know. Normally shoes are pretty low on the list of things to unpack, but I needed to find some to wear to work.
I even bought a shoe organizer thing, but it turned out to be wider than the door I wanted it on. Of course, I didn't realize I had a non-standard size door until I'd already got the thing mostly assembled. I'm returning it today, and ended up using an old shoe organizer.
This would be when I found the futon bits. Yay! But I didn't find my good screwdriver. Darn. not sure where that is. Thankfully the backup screwdriver does have a Phillips-head.
I'm back in the library, seeing as I have to leave the house to return the shoe organizer. This time I'm using the computer at my own desk. I'm going to have to move it tomorrow- sitting with my back to the door gives me the heebiegeebies.
Pasta sauce is cooking in my kitchen, and I've got most of my clothes squared away. I even figured out how to get more shelves into my closet for crafts stuff. I still have tons of boxes. *sigh*
Oh, and I was so overwhelmed by too many boxes and a scary drive to mention the best part of my visit to Rochester: Seeing people! I got to have dinner with my D&D group before their game ran. Outback has decent food, but what really made the night was the company. btoblake has longer hair and is still as fun and amusing as ever. benabik has an iPhone (gadget envy!) and is running a very neat game which had a brief plotline involving a flaming half-orc. Elasmo and Girl-X still tell really neat stories and have good taste in drinks. And darkvalor showed up late but still managed to eat more food than the rest of us and entertain us while doing so. I also got to spend time at moriden's place while giving him back his closet.
