The longest day of my life

I am so exhausted so I am going to try and shorten this as much as possible.

So my day started with the accidental 3am wake up, after which I did eventually get a couple hours of sleep. I then woke up and started on my to-do list. After about two hours of walking and errands I came up and finally discovered where the mail boxes are. In my mail box was the slip from the local post office saying where I could come pick up my package. Even though I had a meeting in an hour I decided to go to the post office and somehow get my 70lbs of stuff back to my apartment. After getting lost several times I found the post office. Both me and the attendant knew that it would be impossible for me to carry my packages and even getting a taxi to this location would be difficult. So I asked if I could borrow a dolly. She, being a polite Swede, let me take one of their carts so that I could transport everything. So I walked the whole way back to my place like a mule pulling a wagon. Slightly embarrassing. However, I now have my stuff! After that even more crazy running around and getting lost and finding friends happened. It has been a super long day and even though I still don't have a towel, sheets, or a pillow at least I have my blanket and can go to sleep a little more comfortably tonight. I just hope I stay asleep past 3.
