we got an apartment!
in what may be quickly becoming the best 2-day period of married life by which all non-birth events shall be judged, the wife (squared) and i are moving out of the urban sticks and into urban suburbia (details on yesterday's cavalcade of free entertainment and merch is forthcoming). so look out South Slope because t.s.o.a. is readying an invasion of 22nd street! no more 90 minute trips to work; no more rushing out of work to make the long schlep home to walk the dog so we can do things in the evenings; no more cramped 1 bedroom, moldy, dusty, low-ceilinged, no-natural-light basement nightmare.
in a related note, any friends of the apes are asked to clear some space on the calendar next weekend for some light lifting and carrying. please check your insurance policies for coverage information.

next weekend!! jeezus that's fast. congratulations. 22nd street eh, so that makes you 60 streets closer to the action. I hope the "Button Your Fly" photo has a prominent place in your new apartment.

60 streets and 10 avenues closer (and each avenue is like 3 streets). the place is empty now, so we want to move ASAP. this way, we have 2 weeks of overlap in case we can't get everything moved in a weekend.

The two week overlap better be to throw out all the crap you like to accumulate, paq rat.
Congrats on the new place, but I'll miss the paisans in the old neighborhood. I still tell the cock-a-roach story.

Congratulations on the new place - though I will always have fond memories of Christmas in the hood.

I can help you move, but I don't have medical insurance so if I'm injured you have to pay for all expenses.
I'm looking forward to the housewarming par-tay.
