The mistake I made today was packing the DVDs first (in order to intersperse them with the books), because that meant that when the TV line-up failed me, I had nothing else to play for white noise. For instance, Veronica Mars would've made a nice antidote to STAR World's obsession with Smallville.
It's amazing how many books I have that I didn't know I had. Most of them went into the boxes; a handful didn't make the cut (chief criterion: is this something I want to pay someone to haul up to a walk-up flat?) and will hopefully find new homes.
Now there are 12 filled boxes (though not yet sealed, I keep tossing small items into the corners), and only the bedroom and kitchen are left to pack. Technically, I also packed away about one-tenth of the bedroom's contents today, so I'm a little ahead of the game.
Which makes me feel somewhat less panicked than I did this afternoon, when I was imagining that between work and packing, I would get no sleep till after I moved (on Thursday).

For a very brief moment, I thought you'd packed your cat in the box.
Yes, as panaphobic said: "pls make sure he's still around after all the boxes are sealed."
Ooo...I see Robotech and Dragonriders of Pern books in that crate!
Yes, now you know how truly geeky I am! I have the entire Robotech series and most of Pern. I also used to RP in PernM*s ...
