Pulled everything out of the closet. Half of what was in there were either my stuffed animals or Smaug's Star Wars action figures (both current and original ones, he had the advantage of being a kid when the movie first came out and having stuff like a stuffed wookie, which still qualifies as an action figure and not a stuffed animal).
When most of it went back in, better packed and minus some odd things that needed to be tossed, we were able to get the guitars (my bass, his bass, his electric, and his acoustic) and my violin in as well, and there's still room for about five or six more good sized boxes, at least.
We found leg-less Legolas! He was from a store display a loooooong while ago, before people actually wanted such things. We brought him home for my sister, who left him in our care when she went to Kentucky, but since we've not been on the best of terms, and she's not asked about him since, he's going to come live with us.
Glorfindel: I seriously hope you don't expect us to share our room with him.
Erestor: Lara Croft is one thing, but we draw the line at Legolas.
Glorfindel: I draw the line at both of them *narrows eyes at Erestor*
Erestor: *shrugs* Can't blame me for trying...
Guess Legolas will have to stay in the closet over there, too... or maybe he can guard the basement.
Glorfindel: Yes. Basements are perfect places for silly cave dwelling elves, anyway.
Legolas: *from closet* I heard that!
Erestor: If I were him, I would be less concerned about where I was going to live, and more concerned over the fact I was folded in half and shoved into a closet.
Glorfindel: And in a plastic bag, no less. Right next to Lara Croft.
Erestor: Next to Lara? *wistful* Wonder if there's any room left...
Glorfindel: Take one step toward the closet, and I'll be happy to fold you in half so you fit in there. *glares*
Uh-oh, the boys are getting a little nasty. I think it's all the packing. BTW, kitties seem to be a little better about it -- I think putting the boxes of things back in the spaces there were in is helping, as is snuggling when they investigate and not chasing them out of the boxes like I was doing the first night. It does mean the packing tape is a little furry, but, eh, might as well match everything else around here!
