Some practical assistance needed in Seattle

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

(I checked with a moderator before posting this, but if there’s anything unkosher here please delete it.)

As some of you’ve read in my pity-party thread, I’m at a bit of wit’s end right now; not just emotionally but practically. Is there anyone in the Seattle area who can help me with the following couple things?

[ol]
[li]I have a bird, a small bird (the smallest: a Pacific Parrotlet) that I’d like to have someone babysit for me while my roof is in flux. I have him in a very small travel cage, but I still have the giant flight cage he’s used to if you have room for that.[/li][li]I’d like to be able to keep the little amount of stuff I have left, if only while I sell it on ebay, but I have no place to keep it. Does anyone have a small pocket of emptiness that I could borrow for a couple weeks? The corner of a garage, whatever.[/li][li]Depending on item #2., I’d need help getting my things there: I have no vehicle right now. My possessions wouldn’t fill a pickup bed or a van. And if they did, that would be my stopping point: I’m gonna leave behind anything that would require a second trip.[/li][li]And the cherry on top of the other two? I need to try to be out by tomorrow, Sunday, and at work by 2pm. Or, after 10pm tomorrow, depending on the schedule(s) of my rescuer(s). Monday morning early would be a fallback, but locks are being changed sometime Monday. I live–lived–in Queen Anne. Well, the ass end of Queen Anne; in the shadow of the Ballard Bridge. I work in Madison Park.[/li][/ol]

I can pay! I have free passes for Ponyo, the new Miyazaki, on Monday night, 7pm at Pacific Place!

Interested parties can reach me here, or at my username at gmail.

where do you intend to stay during all of this?

Not sure; couch surfing till Sept 1, when I move into my new apt.

No family in the area? Or anyone with couch space also having space for some of your stuff?

My concern with a request like this is that there are no definite dates, save for September 1st. And it’s a lot to ask of someone that they take care of a bird/provide storage space for three weeks, even if you’re willing to pay.

I’d like to be able to help, but I’m not sure if this could be done. I’m out of the house most of the time on an irregular schedule, and so probably couldn’t take care of a living animal (barely able to take care of myself as it is). I might be able to provide storage, depending on what it is, how much stuff you have, and how long you plan to keep it there.

Well for more details, can you contact me privately?
