Moving blues

Aug 28, 2007 16:34


Moving always sucks.  I know this cuz I've done it a million times already.  Like, I'm kinda a pro.  But this time is infinitely worse.

I have amassed a great deal of "stuff", and I can't seem to get rid of it.  I have done an OK job at throwing stuff out and putting things in the donation pile.  But there is still an overwhelming mountian of junk that, for some unknown reason, I can't seem to part with.  I stood in front of the growing heap in the garage yesterday and pantomimed dousing the pile in gasoline followed by tossing in a lit match.  My dad laughed.  I didn't.  I'm seriously close to doing it.  Just burn the whole mess.  Start anew.

Why is this so difficult?  I have the things I MUST keep.  Like my art stuff.  That'll go with me no matter where I go.  But then there is the crap like MT 414 lecture notes... when the fuck will I ever need these?  I never even took the class!  My goal is to make all of my belonging fit in one half of the garage.  I should not have things that exceed the size of a standard sedan.

Ugh.  Must now return to packing hell.
