You Can't Tuna Fish

I drove 3 hours round trip today, and have at least that much per day over the next four days in order to visit everyone on the Xmas list this year. On top of that, I (stupidly) decided to pick up the girlfriend's Xmas gift myself:



Trust me, whatever the piano movers quote you, it's worth it.

Wait, wait, wait.... You moved a piano by YOURSELF?

Good lord, man, you gotta at least drag a buddy along, if for nothing else than being there to call 911 when the thing topples over on you.

I recently got asked at 9:30 pm to help someone I didn't even know move a piano. I figured if they were calling ME for help, they were desperate, so I helped out with it.

Truly, moving a piano is an art and a science (along with one heck of a workout).

Nah, my Stepdad helped me with the piano (and much thanks go out to him) - I meant "myself" as "without professional help". My Stepfather has 30 years experience moving giant industrial motors in & out of tight places and has plenty of tools to help do the job, but it's still a completely different ball game when dealing with a piano. You're right about the workout, My arms were sore for three days afterwards...
