Moving Makes Me Pist!

As everyone knows, moving is a real pain in the neck. In NYC, however, the pain is not only in your neck, but also your arms and legs (literally). I moved from an elevator building to a 5th-floor walk-up. I did hire three guys with two vans to move me, but after a late start, parking debacles and threats by the movers to walk off the job - I did what I had to do - including schlepping 25 loads of my "valuables" (that at the time I would have thrown in a dumpster had one been closer than my 5th flr apt) up these lovely 5 flights of stairs and getting the movers a bit tipsy at the end of the job.

I wish I could say I loved living in Harlem, but I was pent up in the apartment all day unpacking and haven't been exploring. (Although it could be fear of the stairs and cold keeping me indoors as well). I am hopeful it will be great (good points: only 5 blocks from Central Park and my new roommie is also a pescatarian)- but the following issues do need to be addressed!


The last two aren't move-related, but do need to be dealt with!
