To-done's

Monday, 8/29 - Messed up my back while bicycling, spent most of the day trying to find some way to hurt less. Made soonest possible appointment with the chiropractor, for 9/1.

Tuesday, 8/30 - Final packing marathon for all the things that were too necessary or awkward to box up before.

Wednesday, 8/31 - U-Haul out at the end of the orange line rented us a pickup truck for 24h. (Our original reservation, made in June, was for two days, they tried to jerk us around and tell us we could only keep it for 8h back in July, and we eventually settled on that middle ground.) Final push of boxes and furniture. zeightyfiv demonstrated his awesomeness by getting the final load of stuff into the moving truck at awful o'clock in the morning, while I was curled up in a ball of pain and tiredness. Slept about 5h on my own bed, rather than the futon, for the first time in about a week.

Thursday, 9/1 - Unloaded the last batch of stuff from the moving truck. Went to the chiropractor while zeightyfiv returned the truck. Came home and fell over for a couple of hours. Woke up with barely enough time to race one of the cats to her vet appointment. (She was unhappy about being in the cat carrier. Even less so about the carrier being loaded into my backpack, but it seemed less risky than strapping the carrier to the cargo rack.) Came home with cat who no longer had an ingrown claw, or hair mats. Released cat to hide under the bed, and slept some more.

Friday, 9/2 - Started feeling awake again around midnight, and have been unboxing basic necessities like books and clothing. Should probably go to bed soon.
