This afternoon I showed someone from the moving company the apartment and contents, so they can estimate the volume and weight of what we're shipping. She hadn't even gotten past the foyer before asking if we're professors, because of all the books. It transpires that in addition to the items we already knew they wouldn't ship for us, they won't take food of any sort, not even tea or spices. OK, we use up what we reasonably can; bring some golden Assam and probably a couple of other teas; and take the opportunity to replace just about all our herbs and spices, some of which are really past their prime.
Then I waited around for the UPS delivery truck with
julian_tiger's travel carrier. It got here late enough that I barely managed to get outdoors before dark, but twilight will do in a pinch, and it was warm enough this evening that the park noticeably smelled of bare earth. That also meant I wasn't able to meet
cattitude and
womzilla for an early dinner, but so it goes.
