I've been debating exactly how much 80 pounds worth of stuff really is. It seems I want to bring every book in the world with me, and heavy boots, and a moderate amount of clothing, toiletries, and a couple electronics. I know exactly how many of my belongings I currently use, but that is over a three month period, not two years and three months.
Since I graduated from Smith last May, I've been living in three month or less segments, astonishingly enough it took me until today to realize this. While it's nice to have a change of scenery I tend to like to have a place to live and really live there, as opposed to my current state of glorified squatting.
The more difficult question is; what to do with everything else?
dude... we're just glad you decided to let us babysit your cast iron skillet for two years.
ReplyDelete...and we're assuming the same thing for your tea-kettle. hm. maybe i shouldn't've mentioned that one until you were out of the country. anywho, i still make a point to listen to it sing for a good few seconds before taking it off. made me miss you tonight mid-coffee-making.
also, your bed might actually become useful as a "guest room" for a few months. so yes. there are at least some people who <3 your leftover stuffs. reduce-recycle-REUSE!!
