Oh lovely ... I get to move in the rain!!

Edited on Wed Jan-23-08 10:11 PM by ronnykmarshall

We're moving on Saturday and LA is getting a big ass rain storm ALL week.

Just lovely.

But I think of it this way. The rain is tears of sadness from West Hollywood as we leave and tears of happiness from LA-Silver lake as we arrive.

Oh fuck it. I just want to know how the hell Fatty Arbuckle fit into the bathrooms at my new house.

(Fatty Arbuckle built the house we're moving into)

5. A few years

But his ex wife Minta lived there until her death. I don't think she died in our house.

2. My first move after Mom died was in the rain

The people who helped me move told me it was good luck to move in the rain. May you have nothing but the very best luck!

4. As long as the house doesn't leak, you'll be fine.

We moved in the rain once. Really heavy downpours. Then it rained for about six weeks straight after that so it took a long time for everything to dry out.

In case you're wondering (and even if you're not), this was the Florida panhandle. The northern Gulf Coast gets a LOT of rain.

6. LOOK at that place!

Okay, that's a great point about being able to fit in it. But those bathroom tiles are mesmerizing, no?

God, good luck to you!

Sorry about the rain...that's not gonna be any fun. Here's hoping the forecast is wrong (certainly wouldn't be a first time!).
