Furniture

Prof C managed to arrange to have the department lend me some furniture. My apartment went from unfurnished (but for a mattress on the floor) to a bit overfurnished in the matter of an hour. The process was one of the more marvelous things I've seen recently. They brought everything in through the fifth floor window. They had a little truck with a long telescoping "neck" and a platform. One second you're looking at a view of some mountains, and the next some guy is standing out there with a couch!
