    I think I'll do a bit of snooping about and see where they keep the keys for the vans around here...

      @colfax Good luck, I think? Try not to do anything that will land you in a cell.

        @mrmattimation They'd have to catch me first.

      @colfax so you need to travel 25-ish miles to get to your storage and old apartment? Why won't a bus work?

        @pony Money, time, and I have to haul about four bags of clothes back with me.

          @colfax sounds rough but not impossible honestly. The bus can't be that expensive can it?

            @pony Near as I can work out the schedule, I'd have to leave at about 5am and transfer about half a dozen times to get there in time to be late for lunch... if I was lucky I might make it back here sometime around midnight... NJ Transit is a bananaing joke.

              @colfax Did you ask the guy about getting a ride tomorrow? You said he's not planning to meet you at the apartment? Is it possible to get the all clear from the police in time for the move to happen tomorrow? If he's unable, Ashdown may be able to put you in touch with somebody else who can help on the 8th and maybe even give you a ride. How exorbitant would a taxi be for that first long leg of the trip?

              @colfax If you let the shelter know you'll be out late, would there be problems?

                @colfax I can also try him to get the number of another closer to the shelter who might be able to give you a ride.

                    @colfax I could still call around tomorrow if you want to try that. Otherwise I'll call around to get things working for Friday if you like

                      @pony Why not both? I'm kinda desperate right now.

                        @colfax yep. We'll see what we can do. I think it'll depend on luck as far as tomorrow goes. If you end up being unable to travel in time tomorrow we can still shoot for Friday, but those things I mentioned in the DM would have to work out on your end, as well as what I have to work out on my end. There's a good chance that he'll be able to give you at least a one-way ride to or from the shelter if he's still available tomorrow like it sounded like.

          @colfax as for time, when is your moving help supposed to arrive?

            @pony As far as I know now, it isn't.

              @colfax and you said your time limit for getting your stuff out is when? If Mr. Ashdown isn't able then I could ask him for the number of a guy who's not too busy.
