That time of year again
Nov. 19th, 2011 06:39 pmIt's from my mother that I've picked up my habit of never throwing anything away. Every time I come up here, I always wind up going back home with an extra bag of stuff. Which is great for this year, since I only brought one bag with me, so I won't have to check anything.
We went through another corner of the garage today, and I've come out of the raid with a few hoodies and two kangaroo pelts. More astonishing than the fact that my mother just had two kangaroo pelts lying around, collecting dust, was the fact that she has a box full of notebooks. My old notebooks. From high school. I just spent the better part of an hour reading through physics notes and the abysmal dreck I used to call fiction. Good lord, I was a fucking pretentious teenager. I hope to hell I don't still sound like that when I write.
By far, the most exciting find was the pelts, though. I've no idea where I'm going to put them, but I need them in my life.
And apropos of nothing, RDJ sounds like a goddamn Backstreet Boy reject when he sings. Or John Mayer's wimpy little brother. Just sayin'.
