Free stuff and moving.

Yesterday, a singer named Courtney Yasmineh came in and gave us free stuff- a pile of comps to her cd release party and copies of her cd. She seemed a sassy and cool lady. I put her cd in for a listen, and while I'm not huge on the style (sorta poppy, sorta country), it's pretty well done. And even if you don't like her stuff, it's okay since she's playing with Ear Candy! And it's free! So, I'm very likely going to go- it's on Tuesday at 8pm at the Fine Line. Lemme know if you want a comp.

Also:

It looks like we're moving THIS SATURDAY. Please help me, as unless something interesting happens, it looks like s4 is working all weekend and won't be around much to help. I'd cash in my moving favors, except all the sneaky bastar.... uhm, friends deserving of nothing but affection regardless of distance, have moved out of state.

We'll say... 2pm, to give myself some packing time in the morning. How's 2pm? Who wants to help me heft stuff at 2pm on Saturday? Usual bribes of food and/or liquor apply.
We've got the rest of the month to take care of all the stuff we won't have ready, but if we could get the big stuff on Saturday that'd be awesome.

I will help you.

I will help carry boxes.
I will help drive boxes.

I will carry boxes down stairs and put them into vehicles.
I will drive boxes over rivers and through hostile territory.
I will unload boxes and put them inside shelters made of concrete and steel.

Nothing will stand in my way.
All who oppose will fall before my transporting might.

The boxes shall be delivered.

I will help move.

Right on! Will you move furniture, too?

Furniture is fine.
But I won't write any prose,
Just a bad haiku.

I can help! I will be working until roughly 3:20, but perhaps I can meet you here or there at that time.

I don't know that I could help much on Saturday, but I could friday evening with packing if you wanted...

Did you need boxes at all?

[identity profile] spacebug.livejournal.com 2004-11-17 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Boxes! Boxes are great. Wanna help me pack after work on Friday and then see a show? That One Guy is playing. I will get you in or buy you drinks for your trouble... :)

I can probably bring boxes, help schlep boxes, and drive boxes too.
I don't think there's anything I got going on Sat that would be important inuff to preclude helping you.

Damn! Would that I could help. Er, if there's anything you need from super-far-away, let me know...

There's a Convergence Programming meeting at 2pm, but I can help out when that's done. Or if you need help on Friday, I can do that....

(As a very sneaky aside, it's very likely I will be moving to Programming department after this year's Con, so I need to shadow those guys for a bit.)

Could you tell peoples where you live? Email or locked message or something?

[identity profile] spacebug.livejournal.com 2004-11-18 10:10 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, I knew about that. *wink*

I'll see how it goes... I think lostbutton might be coming over to help me pack on Friday after work and then going to see a show- we could make it a little party! Wanna go see That 1 Guy with us? I bet you'd like it. Might be too smokey for athsmatic thaadpoles, though, it's at the Cabooze.

My lungs are in current 'impending winter' mode, and I absolutely can't be in any smoke. I started hacking after walking through a porch about the size of my own, where two people were smoking. Besides, I'm flat broke. I have BOX WINE at home...9.99$ for 5 liters.

Blarg. I'd be be up for all the way up to the Cabooze, though.
Oh March 31st, why will you not come faster?

Shucks, I'd offer to swing the cover in exchange for packing help. Instead I'll have to buy you some beer, or some better wine...
