Ah, Moving

Slowly, but I did help friends move all of their belongings today, the second such lent hand in recent weeks.  I like to think of it as good exercise, exhilarating advilarating. The humidity in Central New York: hot air pudding!  Today's three shirts tell of two day-themes: pourousness and sweat.  We loaded the Penske here in Syracuse this morning, then unloaded it in Ithaca in the heat of the day.  Quite a book collection they've got. 

Because they were re-using boxes from a previous move, I was keying on the box label mix-n-mismatch.  The "Misc. Stuff" tags had me wondering just how miscellaneous the books inside were.  And to stack the hand-truck with three boxes:  Top (labeled): video tapes. Middle: (labeled): super heavy. Bottom (labeled): Books (theory).  Remember I was hotter than the searing red lava-stuff of lower hell, and so I was surviving the day on bemusing hallucinations about box contents.  Wonder what's in here?
