...move themselves when you're all over 30.

Unfortunately, I owed this particular friend moving karma, so I duly showed up.

Good Things about their move:
-it was about 5 miles.
-they had many things packed up in identically-sized banker's boxes.
-virtually all the boxes were labelled and color-coded as to which rooms they were to go in, and there was a map on the new front door to help out.
-lots of people were there to help.

Bad Things about their move:
-cheaper trucks are not better. The one they rented had a cheap wooden floor with metal patches that kept coming loose, and no ramp. The lift gate was nice for a few items, though.
-they had four times the amount of stuff we did when we last moved. We moved two truck-fulls, and there was lots left. Their problem though.
-I'm over 30. I spent all day hauling and shifting boxes. I like ibuprofen, yes I do.
