sistawendy | APARTMENT IN SEATTLE! Therefore, a request for help moving.

My fourteen-year exile from Seattle will end one week from today: I just signed the lease on my new apartment in more-or-less Phinney. The exact address will follow shortly in a friends-locked post, but let's just say it's three blocks from Green Lake as the crow flies, and I have a stop for the 358 bus about 40' from my front door. $850/mo. including water/sewer/garbage & parking, 1 BR, dishwasher, laundry in complex, bike storage, hardwood floors, a short walk to the Green Lake PCC. A steep but not too long walk to Red Mill burgers; the Wendling will love that. A not-too-bad bus ride to work. A quick trip to the Greenwood Goth colony.

My own bathroom. No housemates. O frabjous day!

I'd love to be able to move myself, but with a queen size futon couch and a full size bed, both with frames, m'boy and I can't do it alone. I need one or preferably two strapping people, gender unimportant, to help me move. What's in it for you? Eats, drinks, and the pleasure of my company*.

There will be a house warming once I get the place furnished and everyone's back from Burning Man. That's looking like September 8th or 15th. I promise you'll know shortly after I do.

I'm thinking of calling it the Lake Place.

*That isn't necessarily a euphemism for anything.
