Ack! It's August!

[chanaleh]

No question about it: this month, moving is upon us. No, we don't know yet (as of this posting) exactly when that will take place. Hence, everything after about the 15th (or certainly the 20th) is totally up in the air. (Also, no matter when the physical move gets accomplished, I'm expecting to come back to Boston for a few days to finish out work through Sept. 2.)

Also: Yes, I would like to see you socially before I leave. Yes, you. All of you. At least those of you in the Boston area. No, I'm NOT going to be able to manage that even with sunspiral's patent-pending Time Crowbar. I will probably have open-house packing evenings where I want people to come sort through boxes with me (and/or consume my booze), so watch this space. :-} Yes, I will be back to visit semi-regularly after the move. Yes, you can come visit me/us anytime in NYC.

Well, I will be at the Shakespeare Slam, so I will get to see you there at least. I saw you at 2010 on Friday, but didn't get a chance to say hello--you left too early!

And, as your soon-to-be ex-neighbor, I will gladly come over and help with packing/sorting/consuming booze (and taking any remaining bottles off your hands). :)

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

Actually, I'm not sure if I am really going to make it to the Slam, but we'll see what the afternoon looks like! But I'm keeping it in mind.

Would love packing/drinking company, I'll keep you posted!

[points.livejournal.com]

Goodluck, sweetie. If we don't get together, than another year g-d willing. Time is getting tight on this end, too. :)

If you think we may be able to slip in a lunch or a dinner somewhere, I'll do my best. If you need specific packing help or somesuch, let me know. Ditto on doing my best. ;)

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're one of the people I was particularly thinking of. I'll email you about mutually available schedule holes. :-}

*hugs*!

[trowa-barton.livejournal.com]

If you're up for visiting Xander, please let us know.
Yet another reason to go to NYC.

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

I am DYING to visit Xander, and family. :-D Let's find a time!

[magid.livejournal.com]

I'd be happy to help pack if you want another person sometime.

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

You're definitely on my list! Thanks so much. Let's talk next week?

[surrealestate.livejournal.com]

Julian would love a chance to meet you before you go. :)

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

That would be awesome. :-)

[moria923.livejournal.com]

I'd love to come over one of the nights you're packing, and help out if possible!

By the way, who sang the part of Erica in the "Major-General" parody? (Those parodies waere awesome!)
