Moving house again - Page 3

jon boy · 02.01.2007, 05:07 AM

i also remember when my dad decided to throw out all the old tickets and other memorabelia i had collected from gigs etc. it went back years and years and was irreplacable.

Norma J · 02.01.2007, 05:20 AM

Dads definitely aren't hoarders.

jon boy · 02.01.2007, 05:21 AM

i think every cinema ticket i had since i was six was there and he slung the lot.

jon boy · 02.01.2007, 05:38 AM

thats true it did lighten the load on my room which was quite packed with junk but still...

i always say whenever i am going to cleanup that i will be ruthless and throw out anything i dont need but always end up keeping it on the off chance i might need it haha. plus i always find some old letter or book i thought i lost and end up reading it in the middle of all the junk.

fishmonkey · 02.02.2007, 11:36 AM

aww shit, that really sucks porkie, i have moved before but never under such shittly circumstances as yrself, just when you've made yr little palace yr own you gotta up sticks and fuck off somewhere else. i will be moving soon but i'ts back to my home house with me Daddie! fun times maybe but i've had to lay down some ground rules before i do (i.e if i come in bug-eyed at 7.30 sunday morning keep the questions to minimum as i am fucked off my head)... i feel for ya brother, keep the chin up.

!@#$%! · 02.03.2007, 01:59 PM

dear porkie,

we just moved to a new bigger house. a big kitchen, lots of space, and studios for everyone. if you want a vacation in the middle of nowhere, i mean the asshole of the world, i mean a dump of a town, i mean a fucking desert, you are welcome to crash with us until you sort yourself out.

i mean, it worked for her, could work for you maybe...

jon boy · 02.04.2007, 02:11 PM

shit kar thats bad news when will you know for sure that they are going to do it?

Danny Himself · 02.04.2007, 02:19 PM

My credit is shit. I have no savings. I feel like I have to stay local at least through the end of the school year for Kellian. I can't take renting anymore, but I don't think I will ever qualify to buy a home in Cali. Starting homes around here are like $500,000- 1/2 a Million for a shitty little track home with no yard. This isn't just about having to move, it seriously fucks up a lot of what I had planned for the more immediate future.

Not to mention we are like perfect tenants. We always fix up the places we are in, I keep my house really nice. We keep the yard watered and mowed, plant flowers, paint, never call landlords for anything, always fix shit ourselves, etc.

Aaaaaahhhhhh! And the damn alcohol is not helping like it's supposed to either.

I'm sorry to hear that,honey.Especially because you also have kids which must make it really hard.I can say i'm stressed and all that but it would be nothing compared to what it is to move a whole family out of a place.I hope things are going to turn out nicely and the kids are ok.I have everything mostly packed now and i'm moving next Saturday.

Our landlord is currently threatening to evict us on the premise of having a rotting-molding-raccoon infested couch sitting on the back porch + owning 2 baby kitties more than are allowed by the lease + a raccoon infested ceiling + a kicked-in front door. I guess most of that's my fault, but the raccoons chose ME. Cute little buggers they are tho.
I've been moving around about 2-3 times a year for the past 5 years. Provided I get the job I'm currently applying for I'll be moving back to Japan in July. After that I think I'll try to stay put for a few years.

Phlegmscope · 02.04.2007, 07:00 PM

I'll be living in my two-room student flat for a year or so, but after that I might move to a bed sit. One good thing about renting an apartment from a student housing company is the certain stableness of it, i.e. It's not likely to have dodgy landlords and there's a maintenance service.

I can only imagine the pain of those with thousands of records. most of my CDs are still in a large cardboard box and the rest spread around the floor and the desk. It's not a big hassle to move em around.

So get this... Within 24-hrs of us getting that news, we were at grocery store and we ran into our old neighbor who is about to move out of the house he owns, and he is most likely going to rent it to us! I don't want to go into too much becuz I'm meeting with him on Wednesday to discuss details and sign paperwork, BUT this played out so strangely, it just seems like total fate...

It is a 4-bedroom, 2-bath house, with a fucking pool & spa! Total upgrade, but $150 more p/mo then I'm paying now. It will be tight, but if this works out we will be there in a couple of weeks. Is that insanely good karma (*knock on wood*) or what?! Cross your fingers for me, I think your well wishes have totally helped...

awww deadly!!!

fingers crossed for you Mama, hope it all goes well, i was well gutted when i read yr first post but i'm made up for you now. All over to yr's for the pool party then!

Tokolosh · 02.13.2007, 05:44 AM

Are you comfortable in your new home pork? Did your records arrive safely, and have you invited the neighbors for tea and scones yet?

Ps: No, I'm not trying to stalk you. Just inquisitive, that's all.

porkmarras · 02.13.2007, 05:55 AM

Well,thank you.I'm not staying there for now,though.

sonicl · 02.13.2007, 05:58 AM

If Jane's and my shed wasn't so full of junk right now, I'd say you could live in there. You could be just like Henry Rollins!

CHOUT · 02.13.2007, 06:16 AM

Porkmarras, will you post a video of yourself moving heavy boxes while you sweat uncontrollably and your rippling muscles undulate wildly? Please only wear a tank top and cutoff jean shorts with combat boots pleeze!

jon boy · 02.13.2007, 06:22 AM
