Not even a pot to do something or other in

The moving company that took my stuff from Connecticut to Virginia claims it is swamped right now and is having trouble setting up a delivery time. So, as of this afternoon, I will be waiting until next Monday to be reunited with my things.

Lucky for me, the place I bought was being shown as a model, and I opted to buy some of the furniture. So I've been sleeping on a couch that isn't really meant for sleeping but is reasonably comfortable. It's also a good thing it's summertime, as I have no sheets.

The bigger problem turns out to be eating, as I don't want to go out and buy a bunch of dishes, silverware, etc. because I like the stuff I have just fine. So I've been making do with two plates and a frying pan, though I did break down and buy silverware service for 4 because I was too lazy to go find a place that sold it by the piece. But I have been reduced to drinking only from bottles and cans as a result of having no glasses.

I tell ya, it's amazing how much you miss something as mundane as a cereal bowl or saucepot.
