Commence Meltdown Now

I told you this day would come and it has. I am officially aware of how ill-prepared I am to move. My enormous pile of junk to which I previously alluded is growing bigger and bigger without becoming any more organized than it was to begin with. I have next to no stationery so I really have to make a trip to Staples some time soon. I do however have an unnecessarily abundant supply of post-it notes. All this time I had no idea that there was a little mountain of post-it notes just kicking around in my basement. Those lucky pads of adhesive papers will be joining me in the great exodus.

It is also beginning to dawn on me that I need a pick-up truck to carry all my stuff down because my mattress foam and printer alone (see previous post) will take up all the space in an average sized vehicle. What does this mean? It means I will have no way to get all my stuff down to Carleton in one day, meaning I will have to:
a) dehydrate everything I own so that it shrinks to the size of a large walnut, vacuum seal the walnut and throw my various hydration-deficient possessions into a large zip-lock bag to be beamed into school via some teleportation device
b) leave something behind. Oh well, I guess that means no clothes for me. I shall live solely on a mattress foam, some post-it notes, and a printer. Excellent.
c) split my stuff into two piles: my can't-live-without items, which will make trip numero one with me and my meh-I'll-live items, which can come on the second trip (courtesy of Daddykins)
Personally, I'm a fan of a) but I'm still waiting for Star Trek to relinquish their hold on the necessary technology.

But enough about the tireless stress of packing and moving. Today I am going to visit my long-lost high school friends of yore: Rachel and Emily. I love how we can say we have high school friends now. It's going to be excellent because I woke up extra early to get a surprise ready, which they shall see when I make my grand appearance.

And as for everyone else, I bid you adieu until tonight at Smelly Melly's.
