Me, my STUF, and a few things that were not meant to come are now all packed in to my 275 sq. ft. (A shout-out to [livejournal.com profile] sedai et iugus for their assistance with transporting self and cat, and general cheerful optimism during.) There were a few errors--a giant coffee table of [livejournal.com profile] nedlnthred's came, which it should not have; my computer desk came, which I had decided I would not take; I forgot to have them get my office chair from the house, as well as the wall-hanging shelves' shelf bits (I have the brackets, of course). The other major FAIL was that I seem to have neglected to put the countertop bit of the IKEA workbench, which shall be most of my counter space, in with the other pieces parts. Well, most of these problems may be amended without much hassle (though the coffee table is going to be a pain in the tuchus, as I don't think it fits in a car).

I have made the bed--which Ranger is, as anticipated, hiding under; I expect we will see him sometime around Thursday--and put away most of my clothes, shoes, and bathroom stuff. The futon/couch is set up, and I am now sitting on it next to the window, stealing internet from an incautious neighbor, as the signal does not reach into the bedroom. Aside from a tetchy sore throat, which I hope is not going to develop into anything more serious, I am reasonably content.

Don't sweat the coffee table. A previous roommate left it and I never particularly liked it. Put it out on the street there and I'm sure some poor starving 20 something will take it and be happier for it.

Mazel tov! Good luck settling in.

Let me know if you need to borrow the van. (The seats all collapse in the new one -- it holds a fuckton.)

I hired movers to ship my stuff from Waterloo to Vancouver. They helpfully shipped over a trashcan, with the trash still in it. I was sort of impressed.
