So the last few days have mostly consisted of this:
Followed by massive amounts of paper. I had no idea how much paper the movers used. Everything, everything, was wrapped in paper, and don't spare the trees! The TV remote: three layers of paper. Plastic tupperware lids: two sheets of paper. A box of kleenex: one sheet of paper. Ye gads!
The avalanche of paper led to this of course:
Here, Scott demonstrates some excellent paper-stomping technique:
And if you've ever wondered if Scott could fit inside a cardboard box...
He can!
This here's one of the last kitchen boxes to get unpacked. Scott commented that although the kitchen accounts for the least amount of actual space in the apartment, it contains the largest amount of actual Stuff. Not sure who's fault that is...
The fridge is there on the right, with the oven in the middle. On the left, across from the fridge, is a little pantry. And across from the oven is the sink and dishwasher. I've belatedly realized that once you account for all the appliances et cetera, there's not a lot of counterspace. We'll probably buy some sort of butcher block/kitchen island to give me a little more space to work.
And the requisite shot of our fridge contents, circa two days ago.
Don't worry. We've rounded things out since then. Now there's at least a quart of milk and some lunch meat. And more beer. Hey, unpacking is thirsty work!
Damn, that is a ton of paper! You should make paper pudding out of it or something. Or money.
ReplyDeleteI'm so pumped that you're getting somewhere with unpacking!!
I love all your brick walls!! Envy! It looks like such a great apartment.
ReplyDeleteI can't help but notice that you've filled your fridge with Sam Adams and Nantucket Nectars...Also I heart your new apartment.
ReplyDeleteDon't throw out the paper yet. When you get a kitten, the paper will be a great toy. Will you get a kitten? When will you get a kitten? When will you post photos of a new kitten? Will you have the kitten by this weekend? Next week? This month? Next month?

Maxwell is *very* jealous of Scott-in-the-box. :(
ReplyDeleteWhen WILL you get a kitten?!?
The brick walls and the wood floors look awesome! How's the unpacking going?
