The move is next week. Ack. The packing is not done! Not even a little! Well, that's not right, it's a little done. We've got about 12, 15 boxes packed, and we have the empty boxes for more. But it seems like so little has been done, and so many things are still out! How did we get all this stuff in just a year? It's rather creepy, really. But everything will be fine, as long as we can get it all onto the truck.
BUT APPARENTLY THAT'S A PROBLEM FOR F^@&($^ U-HAUL.
I just got off the phone with a U-Haul representative. This in itself was a minor miracle, as U-Haul obviously does not like to answer its phone, judging by the six unanswered calls during working hours I made today. What made it worse though, was the absolutely bitchy woman on the other end of the call. I wasn't very happy already when I called, after all that time staring into space while my calls rang unanswered or I listened to hold music, but I was going to try and be nice. This chick wouldn't even let me finish my sentences when I asked to check on my reservation.
Apparently, not only do they not guarantee the location where I can pick my truck up at, they won't even let me know what time it is until the day before. Argh! If I'd known that ahead of time, I wouldn't have even gone with them, but I did and now it's too late to change. I have a driver coming at 1:30, but if I don't get the truck till noon, I'm totally screwed. And I won't know until the day before. I tried to ask if there was a ballpark estimate she could give me, or anything I could do to help ensure I'd get a truck early in the day (I made the reservation weeks ago), but she, in her obviously patented "You're stupid and I'm a bitch" voice, just kept repeating that they weren't going to confirm anything before the day before the move. Ugh! I'm so angry, but I don't think there's even anything I can do.
I think I'm just going to take a few minutes and vegetate my cares away. Maybe take the bath I planned on before I picked up the phone. Speaking of which, if you call my cell phone, it will not work. It has been washingmachinated. Call Mike's instead.
