So with the upcoming move on the horizon it was time to get boxes. We heard that you can go on Craigslist to get them but they go fast. We were hoping to get ones that someone just left at the curb... come get them and go. No need to talk or call or email. Well those never posted when it was convenient. So we... er I should say I... decided to email a post from 20 minutes prior and give them Marty's number to call. Well -- he called and told us we could come and get them the next day when he was out of work. We decided to try it despite Marty's lack of excitement to go to some randoms house. The guys had not cut but only a couple of the boxes down so Marty brought a box cutter. Well the guy says he will go look for his box cutter inside and comes out with a machete. Yes a machete. Craigslist creepiness and the guy brings out a machete. Proceeds to tell us that it was the weirdest gift he ever received. What is one's personality that deems being worthy of receiving a machete as a gift? Fortunately, he used the machete only on the boxes and we ended up getting a ton of boxes for free. We had so many, the back of the van was completely full and we boxed Madi and Drew in. They had little peek holes and we provided them with flashlights. They thought it was great fun! Now what to do with all these boxes. PACK... ugh!!!
