Another box of mugs & glasses, and a bag with a few various knick-knacks in it packed between last night's post and this morning. To all you soon-to-be-movers, duct tape on cardboard boxes? Not as great as you might think. It keeps peeling off--I guess duct tape (and the Force?) just have no effect on cardboard. It is impervious to their powers!
So I'm off to get some more packing supplies and some packing tape from the UPS Store, more paper towels at CVS, and deposit a check. And it's only 10:30! *toothy proud grin!*
In other news of progress, I guess eating a little better (Lean Cuisine meals for lunch, Wheat Thins and natural peanut butter on Rice Cakes for snacks, etc) is paying off because a pair of old shorts fit me again! Must be the food, 'cause god knows I've been spotty with jiu jitsu this month and last, despite my best intentions. But this pair was a little too snug to be worn before and now they fit! ....okay, maybe losing a little more would make wearing them even better, but hey, there's a difference that I can see, so I'm psyched about it. w00t! :D
In closing, if anyone wants a bookcase, I'm selling mine. 30 bucks or best offer. It's in good condition, five shelves (3 movable) and about 5 feet tall. Now, why would I sell this, when I have a billion books, you ask? I have a lot of hard backs, and the shelves keep slipping off their plastic supports when I put too much on them. The bookcase itself is in good shape, and honestly you could probably get better support thingies to hold them up, but there were some sturdy ones I used to have at my parents house that I'm going to try and take back anyways, and hey, those are free. So, let me know if you're in the market for a bookcase. ...or know where to buy metal/stronger support thingies. ;P Picture of bookcase is available.
Off to continue being productive!
