All right!

We are officially out of our house; the movers came today and schlepped all the furniture hither, thither, and yon. The apartment is pretty well squared away, and the only thing I wish it had was a slightly better under-the-sink cabinet in the kitchen, and a broom closet. We even have our hockey gear here, crammed into the little closet on the balcony.

We have a few boxes to schlep from here to the storage unit -- boxes that the computers were packed in. (Thank goodness, because we have no room for anything else.)

We may, just may, be going to Potrero War tomorrow after all. (: (: (:

*fingers crossed* for Potrero!

When do you close? I remember you said the date might have moved up...

[leanne]

We close as soon as the paperwork is all signed and in. So maybe Tuesday, maybe Wednesday. It's mostly out of our hands at this point. All we have left to do is turn in the last of the keys. (:

And yes, we're going to Potrero. Though we may not be bringing the bows. Given that we're only going to be there a short time, I'd kind of just like to see what the War is all about, instead of only doing one thing. (That, and then I will really not feel guilty about leaving early ... we are both exhausted. People in the apartments are early birds, which is fine, but we're still not used to it.)

Awesome on the closing! I'll keep my ankles crossed for you. (Can't cross fingers long term, makes it too hard to type.)

It makes perfect sense not to bring the bows this year. You can wander around without worrying about them being hot in the car, or having to store them somewhere. I love having mine with me just because it's so damn cool, but it's also so damn *awkward* ...

One thing I do look forward to with the Mongolian bow is that it will be *shorter*. :)

Congrats again on moving out. Rawr!

[leanne]

Oh yes. Coolness factor is high, for sure. I suspect that when I get the han-kyu made, I will want to wander with it out of coolness factor.

! ... dang, I'm going to need to learn to make bowstrings, 'cause I'm *sure* I'll need to for that.

Thank you for the congrats! <3

Hope to have pix of Potrero too, we'll see. (: Much to do! *happy dance*

Toby says he's seen a couple other people there in Japanese garb, and apparently we'd win a Japanese garb contest hands-down. I'm frightened. This is seriously baseline Japanese garb! You've seen it! I haven't even done fabric painting or anything! O_O Eep. (:
