Too much stuff

I've already disposed of and/or donated a TON of stuff...and yet my apartment is still overflowing. I'm at that stage in packing where I've gone from "Oh, I don't have many boxes" to "Holy shit, how did I get so much stuff?"

The purge continues. I can't wait until it's all over and I'm settled in.

There was no hot water this morning. It's been a problem for several months now, and I won't miss it.

ETA: I worked my butt off from 10 AM to 5:30 PM with sporadic short breaks. I'm done for the day. I think if I can keep a 2 box per night thing going, I might have rest time by the end of the week. I might even be able to squeeze in most of the cleaning before I actually move my stuff, leaving only touch ups and vacuuming to go. Whee.

I suppose I'd better check with my new landlords and see if it's okay for me to move in a week early - will pay, of course.

Also, I had to get a few items at the store - milk, veggies and fruits...and I resisted both ice cream and Oreos' new snack cakes, which were both like Siren calls to me. I hate this dieting thing. Today was the perfect "You did all this work, you deserve something good" day.

Fun with sorting. Or something.

I admit I'm easily amused

Every time I see a headline about Dean pounding Jamaica and/or any other region, despite the seriousness of a hurricane, I get a mild case of the giggles. Both because of Dean Winchester and because I grew up with a kid named Dean who always had a crush on me (his parents thought for sure we'd end up married; we didn't).

I am 12 years old.

I just found a canister of salt (with 33% less sodium!) in my cupboards which I think I've had since 1998. Don't ask why I keep transporting the stuff. I am tossing it.

Also, pop singers should stick to singing and lay off the acting. I'm watching some cheesy flick on Sci Fi and there's some kid from Backstreet Boys or 'Nsync in it (not a fan of either, just recognize faces, so I really don't know which). He's pretty bad. It would be like me deciding I wanted to act and just doing it even if I sucked, which I would.

I do have a life long aspiration of being "woman behind counter" though, so if anyone's got any industry ins, let me know. Tee hee. I'd be a GREAT "woman behind counter" or, for variety, "sarcastic woman behind counter" or "bored woman behind counter" or even "stoned woman behind counter." Have to strive for career longevity, you know.
