Yes, that sucks, but....

Provided your new place is reasonably close to your apartment, keep stuff in the apartment and move slowly over the course of several weekends.

Or, use the apartment as a living area while you clean, paint, re-do the new place.

That was my intentions when I bought my house. Too bad the seller was :rolleyes: and we closed later than expected because of them.

A fix, repair, change-out, etc, always seems "minor" until you actually start doing it, and then, lo and behold, what seemed like a minor undertaking suddenly becomes a day or week long affair involving power tools that you never even knew existed.

Aint that the truth. I still have long standing things on my list of :rolleyes:

In case folks haven't seen it, apparently Lufty is giving out 2000 M&M miles and a $100 Rennaisance gift cert. Link

Time for my insensitive statement of the week. I just saw a photo of NJ's new Gov. Wow! He's gotten even bigger since election day. He's going to keep the suit people busy at this rate provided he doesn't explode like Mr. Cresote after a nice thin chocolate waffer.

That is good advice and I will be doing that in the future!!

Just reviewed my CO account and I have earned near 72K in RDMs and 28K in EQMs. This is the first time in many years that I have done this so early!!

Oh that's just frickin wonderful. I tried to buy lunch and my debit card was declined. I came back to look at my Chase account and figure out what was going on, magically there is $800 missing. There are three charges for downloadable software that I did not buy. Some butt-trumpet has stolen my credit card info from my web host and gone on a foxtrotting shopping spree. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Chase Fraud Prevention saw the stuff and put a hold on the account. I called them and now have a new card on its way, but this is particularly :rolleyes: given that I'm closing on a motherloving house this afternoon.

<-- Not a happy camper.

In celebration of our return from PRG, Shiner brewery has released their website for the new Shiner 101, a Czech mystery brew: http://www.shiner101.com/

I'm guessing it's a pilsner but I would be extremely enthusiastic if it turns out to be a dark brew.



P.S. - to have a little fun, the website and videos are in Czech ;)
I understand the first line, "It's a simple beer, we have barley, hops, water, and yeast" and something about traditional Czech beer.

I have been meaning to post this since my return on the three recent FT trips with BOX members!!

I want to thank those in the BOX and especially those at the NYC NYE Box DO and the PRG DO for being so open and supportive of me. You don't know how much it means to have friends like yall that support me as I come to terms with being gay and how it has truely changed the atmosphere at home. It is great to have the support of yall on trips but also the support of the gang here in the BOX on a daily basis!! :)

Also I must mention that we did go to a couple of gay bars in PRG and it was cute to see a group of guys go to the restroom together ;)! Thanks again to everyone in the BOX for being such a great support to me at this time!!
