Day 107-Bellingham is Sunny..For the Moment

Yesterday was highly interesting. Setting out for Bellingham with two friends and a completely full pickup bed, at about 10 AM, it didn't take long for crazy stuff to start happening. I received a phone call from my current roommate wanting to know where the keys were. I helped him as best I could without being there. Not a half hour later, he called again. Oh Junk, I thought, what now.

It seems as though John, when he had left up and left for another dorm, had failed to actually pack anything. According to Robbie, his stuff was strewn about without rhyme or reason. His key had been left on his former desk. UM.

"You know Charb, the Resident Director?"
"Yeah?"
"Go find him."

I felt bad, because I was going to help John move his stuff, but I had to leave for Vancouver before he thought to call me. When he did call, I apologized for the misunderstanding, and asked John two questions :

"John, do you have another way to get your stuff out by 4:00 tomorrow?"
"Yes."
*I cringe, knowing it's probably not true*
"John, does your family know about this?"
*pause* "Yes"
*CRINGE* There was no way that one was true.

Robbie (new roomie) found a place to stay for a few days until the situation could be evaluated. However, as I pulled in and began to unload, I saw John moving his stuff into his brother's car.

Problem solved. Robbie moved in within a few hours. He seems like a cool guy. We're both history majors and even in one of the same classes, our earliest one, so it'll be easier to get up in the morning.

John stopped by a little bit later to say hi. Which was sort of awkward, but it's always awkward talking to him. He had to get his bike, which he left over here, but the fact that he stopped by meant he appreciated me in some way, so that was cool.

Finished the day by talking with the suite/stackmates and watching a movie, Hot Rod, which I am certain my brother would love, but my friend Simon would likely abhor. Some language stuff was in it, but it was mostly just really bad acting-on purpose. It was funny. I laughed.

That's mostly it. Today it's sunny, so it may dry up enough for me to go play outside.

Cheers.
