Annoyance number one: I am a firm believer in original packaging for shipping electronic equipment. I've got my iMac box, my printer box, my Wii box, my Xbox 360 box, and the box for my TV, so packing them up has been pretty painless.

I also kept the box that Rock Band came in. The good news there is that the drums, drum stand, mic, and all the attendant cables fit into the inner drum box.

The bad news is that once you've attached the head to the guitar, you can't take it off, nor can you fit it back into its box with the head on.

Annoyance number two: I've arranged my apartment by email. I've asked in the last three emails for the actual address of the apartment I'm moving into. The leasing agent has given me every piece of information EXCEPT the address, which is really the only piece of information I need (so I can order cable, get electricity, and get the renters insurance policy that the complex requires before I move in). And, bonus, none of her email signatures contain a contact phone number.
