I should get an honorary degree in Archaeology for this

Dec 06, 2007 00:06

I've been cleaning my room in preparation for Grammy's arrival. And not just the regular cleaning, oh no. I decided that it was about time to do a purge of my closet, my desk, everything. I don't think that I've actually spent the time to do this since...I moved into this room. And I do believe I've discovered why. I started this process about ( Read more... )

cleaning and ocd don't mix, and now we take a left turn into random, letter writing is a lost art, grammy

in which we discover that I displayed a remarkable lack of talent in the visual arts from a very, very early age
I shouldn't laugh at this, but really. brilliant execution.

about 7 half-finished letters...I am ashamed, but not surprised
at least you found them! I knew they were going to turn up eventually, what with all the letters I got saying '....i started a letter, and then put it down, and then lost it, and so now here's a new letter. let me try to reconstruct.'

Will you hate me if I said that I threw away the half-letters? They were just ridiculous amounts of "I'm really bad at writing in a timely manner. I'm sorry. So, here's what's happening in my life. I'm" and then they end right there. So not worth even trying to finish.

YES!!! I was totally going to mention that, except that I couldn't figure out a pithy way to say "5 socks whose mates I thought the washer or dryer had eaten years ago."

'5 socks whose mates I thought the washer or drying had eaten years ago' sounds pretty pithy to me.

Well, I thought of it now. My earlier attempts were twice the length and half as funny.
