The packing has begun

Ugh! Does anyone LIKE moving? We packed books yesterday. And I started to attack the office. I am trying to go through that stuff and throw out a lot of crap we don't need anymore.

Yesterday I also went to Michaels to meet with the "party lady." I am having a birthday craft party Sunday and I went in to pick out our supplies. Should be a fun time. Romana (aka party lady) is excited to host an adult party. She says it will be nice to have a party without the screaming and crying. I told her I couldn't make any guarantees.

Saturday: We went to Oktoberfest in Alameda with our friends Phil and Lisa. The also had a friend with them, Erin. So the 5 of us headed to the Oktoberfest, which was sponsored by a German restaurant. There was music, good food and lots of beer. Phil and Lisa did the Chicken Dance. Quite entertaining. But the real entertainment was when they called out for some men to dance and their wives or girlfriends to judge. (Well, Lisa and Erin had already left--went to an art show.) So I was Phil's "girlfriend." There were 6-8 guys dancing. It was hilarious. I laughing so hard I was crying. One of the judge's kept saying Phil was really good and really trying. So Phil had a dance-off with another guy. And Phil won.

Anyway, I will be in packing hell for the next month. I can't wait until we are in our new place.

That's what I do like about moving. :) That, and getting to live in a new place!
