i've packed seven boxes of books, two boxes of dvds, thrown out about three feet of paper (drafts and other things laying around ~ good grief!), and i bagged three sacks full of clothes for goodwill.

it's taken me most of the day, the house is a complete tornado of random garbage, and in spite of all that, it doesn't look like i have made even the smallest dent in it. i know i can't expect to pack an entire 8-room house in which i've lived for five years in a matter of one sunday, but i'm going to feel rather grummy until i start actually seeing some sort of progress.

is halloween weekend a bad weekend for a garage sale? i don't really want to wait until the week after. and yet i don't know if i can get this place under control by next week either.

i could really use some help. hahahahaha ~

it's wonderfully blustery today. a nice coolish breeze is gusting in, trying to make it autumny. good luck to it! i've had about all i can take of summer since last march.

the blue book trade-in value on my Honda is about $2000. the PT Cruiser costs about $16k (feh). i'm short a few bucks (and getting shorter all the time). nertz and furgle. seems like that's less cost-efficient than i remember when i looked at it before. is it just my imagination or did the price on these puppies shoot up?

so tired. need soda. need sustenance. i am off to the grocery.

Packing? Already doing the movie for grad school? When do classes start? Are you selling the house? Buying a new one? Where is the grad school located again?

Okay, enough questions. :)

As for the Cruiser. That is about right for the price. It's stayed pretty constant. Do you really want one? Have you looked at the Toyota Matrix?

Oops, asking more questions again. Better end this.:)

ayup ~ the moving has begun ~ and what a move it shall be! (tries not to wince) ~

classes start sometime in january, but i have a orientation on december 17th that's mandatory ~ (before Christmas ~ are they nuts?)

i am selling the house ~ you buying? i'll be renting up there ~ st. paul, minnesota. land of a thousand lakes (and lots and lots of snow) ~

i think i really want a Cruiser. the matrix is yugly (but i'm very fussy about cars that way) ~ i almost have always had a honda, but my days of affording that sort of set of wheels are way over! hahahaha ~

On your way to St. Paul, if you even pass through Kansas, you should look me up in Wichita. Show you around town perhaps or a cup o' joe?
