| HELP! |
[Jul. 11th, 2008|03:31 pm] |
At long last I'm moving from the East Village to the Wilds of Brooklyn.
I have decided that I deserve to pay others to sweat for me. Also, my knees have decided they're old& refuse to move from one 4-story walk up to a second 4-story walk up. I've got some money set aside, I've got a date picked. I'm half way packed& haven't quite lost my mind yet.
Only, I have absolutely no idea how to go about picking a reputable moving company. I know I need something
bigger than a man w/ a van& smaller than a corporate/ full residential move. I've been looking thru internet review sites& craigslist& I'm officially lost, flummoxed& certain anyone I pick will be a scam. Also, as I would like to move on the 28th, I feel like I'm running out of time.
zo:
Anyone out there done this before? How do you pick a good moving company? Do you know a good one to recommend?
help! please! |

TNG is Party-ing! TNG is Party-ing!
A bite& BYTE on Sunday:
We'll be meeting up at 8pm Sunday at 'Inoteca (98 Rivington St., at Ludlow). We'll be headed over to the Delancy Lounge (168 Delancey, b/t Clinton and Attorney) for the Byte party around 10, 10:30ish. Dinner is just for TNGers& their guests,
Dancing is for Everyone!
The cover depends on how you dress-- it's one of the ways the organizers of Byte encourage people to get into the spirit. It's $5 if you're a "fetish diva, creative goth, cyberpunk, material girl, fashionista... alternative sexiness... and anyone who can leave their inhibitions at home". $10 for all black, $15 for anything else. Black, lacy, anything you can find really will work. It's all about how you carry it--if you believe that you've got more angst-y fabulousness than everyone else in the room, they'll believe it too. Trust me. Just stay away from sneakers ;>
If you want to know more about the restaurant or the party you can check out:

i walk to the corner, he follows me. he stands at the corner & watches us walk up the block |
