MAKE IT ALL GO AWAY
Aug. 18th, 2003 03:39 pmI'm am about 80% finished packing. Geez, that last 20%, can't I just ignore that? I mean, I packed MOST things. 80% is a good grade. Why can't I get away with doing 80% of my packing? I'm sleepy! I'm tired! My bottom hurts! My stomach is upset! WAAAHHH I HATE PACKING.
Why do I have so much stuff? I don't USE this stuff. I don't wear those clothes. Why do I have to pack them? Why does my mother insist on giving me more corningware every 2 months? I mean, now I have an entire BOX dedicated to corningware. My mother is ADDICTED and she is trying to use me as her proxy, it's not fair. I do not feel any tinge of glee when I see corningware, but I think she can't understand that worldview.
I gave my dad my old ABBA gold tape. He's groovin' down now, and I know when he's approaching in his PT cruiser because I can hear the strains of Gimme Gimme Gimme from the parking lot.
Okay back to the freaking packing. Goddammit. ARGH.

Ultimately, it gets tossed into several boxes ambiguously labeled “miscellaneous” to be sorted out "later", but it never does.

Date: 2003-08-18 04:57 pm (UTC)This is (one reason) why I want to move overseas...it might make me finally get rid of my grandmother's decorative spatula-and-spoon set (not kidding), the only mildly broken Peruvian pottery statues (not kidding) and the essays from high school (not kidding).
Two cross-country moves have evidently not been enough; I think I need to cross serious water.
now I have an entire BOX dedicated to corningware
Oooh, spare corningware may be sent to ME! Definite twinge of glee here.

Date: 2003-08-19 10:56 am (UTC)Thats too bad, because it LOVES you!
(thats what my dad always says, unless its "Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!", no idea why he says that when I say I hate packing, oh well.)
If you listen to fun music while you pack it makes it better....I did a project on that, I helped take apart our kitchen listening to mozart, and put it back together listening to Chicago soundtrack, Chicago definitly better.

*hands plushie* There there, feel better.
