moving never ends

hi, we are the chengs, and the moving NEVER ends with us. haha. but seriously, today we ran the nyrr ted corbitt 15k race at butt freaking cold temps (35F) in the am and then drove down to my parents place for what was supposed to be the final trip moving a few of the items we missed last time like kev's mattress, desk, and a couple boxes to the apt.

we'd forgotten there were also two street-use / beater bikes, and my old refrigerator and washing machine from tokyo which i wanted to bring back to the city and craigslist or donate. basically just want to get it out of my parents house so they can have some of their basement/garage back! guess there will be another trip sometime in the future :)

anyways, my mom came into the city earlier in the morning to take care of some stuff at the taiwan embassy, and we finally got to give her a tour of the apt since its renovation! since they are also doing a pretty significant remodel of their master bath (combining their existing master bath and a separate jacuzzi area, and reconfiguring the locations of all the new fixtures), it was fun to talk about the stone and fixture selection process.

then we walked over to the uhaul place on 23rd street and my mom and i squeeze into the front passenger seat, secured by the passenger seat belt. hahaha ... it was a tight fit :) had a quick lunch at our go-to spot for breakfast, lunch, or dinner: shanghai bun. actually its the go-to spot for basically every asian in a 20 mile radius! tasty and cheap :)

the move itself was alright - kevin and i are pretty good now when it comes to moving (lots of practice ha) and can move somewhat swiftly. i think if i were about 5 inches taller and 50 lbs heavier and stronger, i could be more helpful, but oh well.

finished the night off with some tappo thin crust pizza around the corner and i started to clean and set up the guest room.
