Royally Screwed

« previous next »

OK, this is my official call for moving help. Because the queen will be arriving Sunday evening and I want to get though the move in the morning so avoid the influx of royal-watchers and protesters that are bound to show up, not to mention the street closures that are bound to happen.

Meet at the new apartment, #14 - 1201 W. Georgia St. (heritage building at the northwest corner of Bute and Georgia) at 9:00 am. My buzzer is 26 (I think). My cell phone is 604-788-9336. I will not be wired until Monday so don't count on IM-ing or e-mailing me over the weekend. I will be at the Nicole/Jenn/Seb housewarming Saturday night.

The plan is as follows:

9:00 a.m. Meet at new apartment
9:30 a.m. I will take 4 people in the Wonder Wagon to pick up the truck in North Van, three of them and I will go to the house in the truck and one will come back with the car to get four more.
10:30 a.m. Everyone should be at the house and the loading of the truck will take place. It shouldn't take too long, worst case I'll say an hour and half, and then back into town to unload.
12:30 p.m. Hopefully find somewhere reasonably close to the apartment to put the truck and start unloading. This is the part I'm worried about.
2:00 p.m. Should have the truck unloaded and someone can follow me back to North Van in the wagon and I'll return the truck. Everyone else can hang, drink beer and order the pizzas.
3:00 p.m. All done. Now I can have some beer and pizza, too.
(insert general goofing off, maybe a little unpacking, watching the cats sniff everything, and stuff like that here)
9:00 p.m. Walk over to Skank to get utterly faced because I have Monday off.
