pro: ran into a coworker at a bar last night who I don’t really talk to usually (he works upstairs, I work downstairs) and we talked and im pretty sure we were highkey flirting and he bought me a drink and the bar merch shirt i was interested in and thanks to the power of alcohol i guess i asked for his number and he gladly gave it to me and. yeah
con: i have the second worst hangover i have ever had and have been fighting for my fucking life just to eat saltines
#it’s getting better but only now that it’s like. 6pm#as weird as it sounds part of why this sucks is that I volunteered to come into work today cause there’s a concert going on nearby which#usually means we’re at least somewhat busy -> make better tips#and I couldn’t go in because well. you know#I’ve been sick and dying in bed all day unable to move or eat or anything#let alone take the bus and go to work#but. as much as I wish I didn’t go this overboard I don’t totally regret last night cause.#yeah. potential thing going on with cute coworker guy. OH and potential job opportunity at my favorite bar in town#apparently said coworker Also has a job at the bar in addition to where we both work and the bar is hiring barbacks at entry-level#so I have someone to vouch for me and the bartender we were talking to seemed to really want me to apply too#one thing that’s kinda funny to me about all this is that the first two places (a bar then a club) we were at felt really mid because they#were packed with way too many straight people (at a gay bar and a gay club)#but the bar we ended up at (where we ALWAYS end up at. it is the oasis. it is the only thing I can rely on) felt. like. not overwhelmingly#straight? at all? I mean part of it’s just luck in a way with just who happened to be there and all that but it’s also that the staff seem#pretty significantly populated with queer ppl#I complained to the bartender about how the club we were at (one of the biggest gay clubs in the city- if not The biggest) just felt kinda#meh because yeah maybe there were some guys dancing in jockstraps and whatever but the crowd itself like. did not feel largely queer#or at least didn’t have the spirit I’d hope for in a queer space if that makes sense. felt very conventional. not enough wild outfits and#makeup and gender fuckery and so on#and the bartender was like dude I KNOW right? I went off outside there once about the invasion of cishets when this space isn’t FOR them#and so on and so forth. and god that was So real.#so the experience at my beloved bar last night was like. 1) guy comes up behind me just to order a drink but i was saving a seat for my#friend who was in the bathroom and mentioned that in case he was looking to take the seat. chatted a little. ended with him pointing out#that a guy nearby was trying to holla at me.#2) I look over and yes. the dj is. in fact. looking directly at me and mouthing the lyrics to whatever song was playing pointed my way.#it was pretty sweet honestly I think it was partly cause I looked like I was shy and alone#3) whatever gay shit was going on with my coworker and i. amusingly he seems to get more flamboyant when he drinks just like i do.#im not 100% sure what his sexuality is but i Am 100% sure it is Not straight. but yeah. if it hadn’t been so close to closing time ive been#hardcore wondering where that would’ve gone. maybe its for the best that i had to go when i did cause i was pretty drunk and who knows when#I could’ve hit the amount of drunk it takes to like outright say hey just so you know i’d suck your dick right now if you wanted

15 Tips To Packing More Efficiently For Your Next Move
Tumblr media
Packing your things can seem like a daunting task. We always have a lot more things than we think we do, and packing always takes much longer than we expected it to.
To help you plan and approach your big move, here are 15 tips for packing your home more efficiently. Hopefully they will help you save time and avoid damage to your things during your next home move.
1. Decide Whether to go Pro or Pack Yourself
Tumblr media
Packing your house can seem a daunting task, so if you don’t think you can get it done in time or would just prefer to leave it to the experts, consider hiring professional packers to pack your home for you.
If you are hiring a professional moving company to move your items, it may be worth finding out how much extra it will be to pack your items as well.
Hiring professional packers can save a lot of time and stress. Professional packers will have quality boxes that are of a uniform size, which means they will stack better in the moving truck. They will know how to pack items efficiently to fill the boxes completely, as well as ensuring that everything is safely packed to avoid any damages to your things.
Yet, packing yourself will save you money. So it’s worth weighing up to decide on which avenue is best for you and your whānau.
2. Use a Packing List
Tumblr media
So you’ve decided to pack your things yourself. The first step now is to get a packing checklist to help you plan your move.
A packing checklist will help you remember all the things you need to pack, some time frames around packing your items, as well as things you cannot pack.
Some moving companies will provide you a packing checklist when you hire them for your home move. If you are moving yourself, check online for a packing checklist that you can download such as this one.
3. Buy Your Packing Kit
Tumblr media
The next step to packing your home is to buy your packing kit.
A packing kit consists of all the things you need to pack up your home. Here are some items you will likely need in your packing kit, based on an average 3 bedroom house.
20 boxes – mixture of 10 small boxes, 10 large boxes
1 tape dispenser
2 tape rolls
1 roll of bubble wrap
50 newsprint sheets
1 permanent marker pen

Day 1 - 15 days of Productivity
Tumblr media
Today I woke up at 6.30am, ready to go for a swim but scrolled YouTube shorts until 8am 😤 no worry! I managed to put on my app block, plus the Forest app. For added motivation I had some chocolate that I told myself I could only eat after I'd studied for 60 minutes. It worked, plus I was able to study for 100 minutes afterwards easily.
So far:
348 study minutes
Made a timeline jpeg for my greyhound ban essay.
Put some old documents and rubbish into a trailer that will eventually go to the tip.
Dropped off some boxes to the charity shop.
Made dinner and did some chores.
Didn't finish my essay, but I'm super happy with how it's turning out.
Got some sad news that a friend of mine's dog is going to the vets tomorrow to pass away, was super sad about this. Feel like I need to add this in here - things come up in life at random times that really affect us, and it's good to have a cry about it.
She was beautiful, always gentle, always getting up to mischief even in her old age. I'll miss her.

I’m out of town for a couple of days for my brother’s chess tournament and the internet in this hotel sucks butts and I only brought one book with me 😓
#sucks butts IN A BAD WAY#this is the same hotel that held the last couple of big chess tournaments my brother entered#so I’ve been here a few times but this is the first time I’m actually renting a room instead of driving back and forth each day#so positive: got a room and don’t have to drive a bunch. negative: no continental breakfast 😒#they have a little tiny starbucks but no free breakfast which is bullshit!#also all of my books are stilled packed up from moving bc I’m lazy so I couldn’t grabbed any one I really wanted to read#but I did get a free copy of Stephen King’s ‘On Writing’ the other day so I brought that#and yeah I am kinda pumped to peruse that. Mr King is a pretty cool dude and I def want his writing tips#but also… I just kinda would rather read something about a fucked up wizard or something ya know?#anyway I always feel weird or annoying saying this but if you want to send me any asks or anything to help pass my time then by all means#or not. it’s cool. really. I hate bugging people and I hate coming off as desperate & needy outside of the bedroom#im going to be mushy and say im kind of excited to spend the night sleepover style with my little bro here#he’s getting older and it’s getting harder to convince him to hang out with me#love this little dude so gosh darn much#oh man what if we get a pizza and watch a movie together? would that be cool? is that something teenagers like to do with their older bros?#i’m so lame#being like 18 years older than your younger brother means you get to fulfill your cool uncle/dad vibes without actually having kids#ok I have to stop myself from filling this with tags about wishing I was a dad or being whatever#what was I saying before?… did I even have a point?#oh yeah… bad internet… only one book… I’m hungry… yeah…#this isn’t important#you can ignore this#text

8 packing techniques for a stress-free move!
Packing to move is scary, more than exciting! We may be in deep joy, but some things have troubled us from the beginning. If you intend to move on, it's a good idea to say so. Let's say you're moving your base from Kota, Rajasthan, and you're not sure how to go about it. In this case, we recommend calling the professional packers and movers in Kota to make everything go smoothly!
Tumblr media
Now you will feel a lot of relief and feel more confident that you will get professional support from the best moving experts! But that doesn't mean you're not responsible for good handling and packaging. You would have a lot of things to take responsibility for and the best part of dealing with them would be making a check!
All of that is fine, but what is not fine is a bad packaging process or haphazard handling of the job. Here are our own packing tips (techniques) that you can incorporate into your move to ensure a stress-free moving experience.
• Track large items first: Since we're discussing packing techniques, this finally brings us to the point where we can discuss the best handling tips for managing large, bulky items. So, before you start, list the items that are difficult to handle and note if you have packages for them. List everything—including large furniture, appliances, and other unique items—that you want to pack and move with extra care.
• Strategy before you start: We'll cover compression techniques in this article, but before we get there, let's clear up a few things! Do not include every small and large item in your baggage check. First, analyze and group the objects according to their nature and structure. Large furniture, large appliances and other heavy items in the home should first be carefully evaluated and only those that will be useful in the future should be packed and moved. Consider this method before you decide to pack anything for your move.
• Remember the principle of packing: Packing households for moving is difficult, but with an ideal process, the whole task can be done smoothly. So what you need to do is have an idea of how you want to do it. If you are just sending your belongings for packing, you will have to think about the necessary items soon after the move and then pack them in a separate basket. Put some clothes aside so you can pack them with your essentials and get through the first few days without opening your moving boxes.
• Handle Odd/Unusual Shaped Items: There are many items that are oddly shaped and somewhat unique and you may not feel comfortable packing them. In that case, don't worry because you can always check out the perfect packing tips and tactics to deal with these items. But if you really want to take them with you, read this carefully. Straining your mind unnecessarily and bothering the movers with huge packing tasks would only force you to spend more money to move your home. Avoid it.
• Get the supplies you need for quality packing: packing goods is nothing short of an art. If you don't integrate the right process and take care of what needs to be done, you can take the wrong step and it can damage your assets. So first focus on everything you need to collect in your place. Get different types and sizes of moving boxes. Special items would need special boxes, so keep that in place too! Wrapping paper, bubble wrap, film, mattress bags, vacuum bags, moving blankets, permanent markers, knives, scissors, etc.
• Choose the ideal packing method: when packing the product in moving boxes, pay attention to the weight of the item. Do not make the moving box too heavy. Always place heavy items on the bottom of the box and make sure the weight of the items is evenly distributed throughout the moving box. Professional movers know the perfect way to do this, but when you prepare your boxes and pack your belongings in them, you need to follow the right process to keep them intact until they are delivered to you!
• Different goods, different technologies: Our households are made up of different goods. Some are delicate and light, while others are complex and heavy, and each item requires different handling and different packaging and protection. If you are packing delicate items, make sure everything is wrapped in plenty of bubble wrap or foam board. Even packing peanuts, napkins etc or even worn clothes etc can be used as additional padding. You can search online for the best ways to pack or even talk to your own team of hiring professionals.
Tumblr media
• Learn more about quality packing: You'll find several blogs and step-by-step packing checklists that highlight the best ways to pack to protect your valuables and possessions during your move. You can take valuable signals from them and integrate them into your process so that your goods are well protected from external damage during shipment movement. Know which items should be packed directly and which by character and weight. Make stuffing a priority and make sure everything is well protected in moving boxes.
Hire the best movers and packers in Kota for a seamless journey.
