Damn those good samaritans!!!

And their little dogs, too!

Oh wait, wrong thing...

So tomorrow I shut down {sniffle} and disconnect {sniffle, sniffle} my system for, oh, who knows, five days? Eight days? Something like that. {WAH!} Hoping to be back on at the end of the week, but you know what they say about the best laid plans. I'm hoping you'll come back and see if I'm still among the living after the official move, which occurs Tuesday. I wish you all a wonderful week..

And whatever you do, DON'T be a good samaritan! Remember how my door handle came off my car (back maybe two posts)? Well, if I'm just running in a convenience store for a minute, I close the door without pushing it shut. This ensures an easy and uneventful re-entry into the vehicle. This also keeps me from leaning waaay over rendering my posterior high in the air for all to see in what I can only assume is a rather ungraceful maneuver. Point being, some bastard closed my door while I was in getting coffee today. Damned good samaritan! Heh. ;)

Hey, I know I haven't been around much, no looooong emails or anything, but it doesn't mean I haven't been thinking about you. I keep trying to get something off to you, but time seems to be disappearing like...I don't even know what to compare it to. I just know Christmas can't come quick enough. I hope your move goes without any problems. If there's anything I can do don't hesitate to ask. You could bunk on my couch but that might be a long commute. I hate moves so I know what you'll be going through, but good luck. And get back on as quick as you can, I look forward to your posts and your emails. And I promise to try to have an email waiting for you when you get back online. Take care

Bon courage for the move! And if you're close to losing it at some point, just think of me: I'd so looooooooove to be moving. Take care of yourself. :)

Reluctant Nomad said...

Have a good move and we wait to see how many mishaps you had along the way. :-)

Um, no, I didn't really mean that.

Hurry back Livewire!

kitty said...

good luck with the move!!

I'm glad to know at least I probably won't be missing anything from you this week while my idiot box is in the shop :(

and for you I promise not to commit any random acts of kindness for at least the next week hehehe

Terri said...

Good luck with the move, LW!! I'll be thinking of you and waiting with bated breath for your next post. In fact, you know, don't you, that we'll probably all be checking your blog daily just in case you managed to get online sooner than expected
:-)

No random acts of kindness, I promise (how great to have permission for that !)

Thanks for the 'good luck' wishes, everyone!

John - I know, we've been running in circles lately; strange we haven't blatently hit in to one another somewhere along the way! Well, it would be a long commute and Buffy may not approve; I'd need to show her references first, I think. =) Take care, thanks for the update and I'll talk to you soon, er, hopefully... =)

Anne - Yeah, I thought you were moving with me. Some help you are....lol.

Nomad - Lol, that's ok, yeah you did mean it. =) I always try to keep misphaps to minimums but fate has a sick sense of humor.

Kitty - So, we'll both be having some withdrawal symptoms. Care to join me in a Frownie? They are fat/sugar free on alternate days of the week. And yes... be defiant... no acts of kindness. Just think, you could be making things worse for someone! =)

Terri - It seems ages since I've been able to sit down and check out my regular blogs like I used to. That will be exciting to get back to. Then of course telling the tale of the country girl that went city then country then suburb then cuntry and now city... Oy. I even confuse myself. I'd better not hear of random acts of kindness going on up there... at least not from you. I expect more from you... =)

And now... I am disconnecting... see you soon. I hope... {nervous laughter}...

LiVEwiRe said...

Jason - I tried to hurry so much, I flew right past your comment! =) See you soon.

Hi L,
So this is gonna be a very busy week for you. But don’t excited that it’s kind of over by the end of the week?
Tuesday, U gonna move, which I think is great… by the end of the week, you’re getting cozy in your new place. Sounds very nice!
Have a wonderful and magical week :)
Take care of yourself and come back ASAP.

Move, move, movin' house
Is something like a dream -
All the stupid details that
Make you want to scream!

Due to technical difficulties, I have also been unable to visit all my regular blogs, so here I am, better late than never, wishing you a warm congrats on getting the lovely apartment and hoping and trusting that you will have a wonderful move. How else, you are an expert!!!

The Prisoner said...

AHHHHHH!

everyone in the world is a moron, apart from us of course.

Ostrich said...

God i hate moving! Hope it goes okay and all your steff gets there intact. Just see that the moving guys don't steal your unmentionables... it's been known to happen. :)

justrose said...

hope you had a good move ... thinking of you ...

Stacy The Peanut Queen said...

Oooo...I loathe moving! Hope it all goes smoothly for you! :)

Fear not, we'll still be here when you get back (although I myself am taking a little blogging break too! These holidays will kill me yet, dammit!!!)

Dr O2 said...

LW seems like you are also experiencing some tough times! I am also truely tied up :-S It is somewhat addictive this blogging thing & one feels something's lost without it. wish U a fast come back...

LiVEwiRe said...

Farzad - Very busy indeed! I think I forgot how draining it is to move! Getting settled now, though... a post can't be too far behind! =)

Kyknoord - Lol!!! Yes, 110% yes! I'd scream but someone would call 911 (emergency) here!

Buddess - Thank you so much... isn't it odd to not go visit your blogs?! I feel like something is missing. Hopefully you'll be back to blogging soon, too!

Prisoner - Oh yes, apart from us...lol. But I got a new handle, so I'm cool!

Ostrich - I was my 'moving guy', so stealing unmentionables is ok, I suppose! =) (Don't tell me that happened to you!!!) With move #40 wrapping up, #41 will be lurking!

Rose - Thanks sweetie... just very, very tired. Now to start the job!

Stacy - Always the little annoyances but nothing earth shattering with the move. Yet...lol. Holidays keep most busy - enjoy your blogging break, I'll look forward to your return.

Sappho - Thanks hon! Just need to catch up on some much needed rest. Thanks for the good thoughts!

Dr O2 - Yeah, it's been a bit trying. Hopefully things are easing up for you, too. I do miss reading my blogs and look forward to posting in a day or so.

Terri said...

Glad to hear it went well, LW - you sound in good form which can only be a good sign. When's the housewarming party? :-)

LiVEwiRe said...

Terri - Hey... housewarming party; never thought of that!!! Perhaps I'll wait to do that for when I move in 6 months, then I might know a few people. Shall I send my private jet for you? =)
