The text goes out to various different people several days in advance, with an invitation as well as a request: Agron and I are moving into our brand new house! If you help us with the move, you'll get free food and lots and lots of gratitude! There's a promise of burgers, hotdogs, turian-friendly food, gluten-free food, vegan-friendly food, anything that someone might want or need in order to survive. Beers and wines are also promised, and Steve sends the message to everyone he can think of.
They've got pretty much everything already boxed in their respective former apartments, and Steve's rented two moving trucks for the day, as well as the additional request from any of their friends with larger vehicles. The packing of the trucks takes maybe two trips each, and then it's a matter of unloading into the new house: a gray two-floor row home on Peachtree Street, between Hegal Place and Crescent Street. It's just a quick jaunt to the boardwalk and has a decent view, to boot.
Steve loves it.
They've got a cute little backyard, and in keeping with the promise for burgers and hotdogs, Steve has a three burner gas grill set up along with some patio furniture. Between their jobs and the city stipend, they'd saved enough to splurge on their little yard with a patio set to go with it, and some extra chairs for anyone that might show up. Steve had made sure they'd purchased this stuff preemptively, so they actually have somewhere to cook and sit.
Steve won't ask anyone to help them unpack, but it's nice to have friends there to help them carry the boxes in off the truck, put in their proper rooms for easier unpacking later on. Then, of course, is the actual furniture: sofa, armchair, coffee and end tables, mattress and box spring, bed frame, dressers, dining tables. Sure, they can do this all on their own, but where's the fun in that?
And it gives them all the opportunity to spend time with their friends, share food and drink, have some laughs. All in all, it's a really good day.
[ Tagger's choice! In this gathering-style get together, help Steve or Agron pack their respective apartments into a moving truck (or your pup's pickup truck!), or help them unload the moving trucks into their new place! Or have your pup hanging out at the grill (manning, or watching the manner) after all the moving is finished. Tag each other, tag us, tag around, and most importantly, have fun! If you know either Steve or Agron, feel free to assume your pup got a text, or be one of their friends who heard about it and want to help/mooch off free food. Timed for all day and into the evening Saturday. ]
