randomness | These moves feel like old-fashioned barn raisings.

Not that I've actually been to a barn raising, but the two and a half (1) moves I've been involved in this weekend: for

mattlistener and

mudpuppy yesterday,

drsnark this morning, and

ceo and

gosling this afternoon, all had that feeling of a community getting together for some shared effort. There was lots of socializing, and a good meal afterward, too.

So I guess it felt the way I'd heard barn raisings were supposed to feel.

It was fun! Insert "Yay!" sign here--if you were there, you know which one I mean.

Best of luck, people!

(1) I say "half" because we really didn't arrive in time for

drsnark's move. I'm glad it got done ahead of schedule, and not just because we mostly missed it. :)
