usmcsis's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- day one of vacation over so this morning i headed off to dinwiddie to start going through all of my junk. i stayed down there about five hours, though two of those hours i spent at jeff's mom's house so they don't really count. i hadn't planned to stop by there at all but i had to pee and as the power at the house is turned off, the well pump doesn't work so there's no water, so no peeing while i'm down there. so anyway, i went through almost all of my books, and out of close to three hundred i am keeping thirty or forty. pretty damn good, i think. i'm keeping all of my stephen king, dean koontz, and laurell k. hamilton. i kept mick foley, the rock, and kurt angle's books. i kept wicked and confessions of an ugly stepsister by gregory macguire. and i found the three library books that i owed to chesterfield county from like three years ago. so i turned them in at the enon branch on my way home this evening. so tomorrow morning i'm heading out there bright and early and i'm taking the books i don't want to goodwill and donating them. i can't throw them away and i certainly don't want to cart them home and try to find people who want them, so i'll just donate them all to goodwill in one fell swoop and have it done with and then give the tax write off to my parents. you know, since i live rent free and all that. so i've spent the day covered head to toe in dust and grime. i saw several spiders larger around than a quarter. that did not make me a happy person at all. and yes, i am well aware that there are black widows and brown recluses all over the place out there. sorry, but i've been told that about a hundred times now by half a dozen different people and if one more person tells me i just might snap. i hate spiders. hate hate hate them. and the thought of being bitten by a widow or recluse makes my skin absofrigginlutely crawl. and so of course everyone nad their brother feels the need to constantly remind me of them. blah. so now i need to wash laundry load #2. but mama is washing a load now so that she will have something to wear to work tomorrow. oh well, i guess i could throw away the six drink bottles that are currently cluttering up my desk. and take this plate in the kitchen from, um, maybe yesterday or maybe sunday i can't really remember. oops. i think this entry is a tad disjointed. in addition to writing this i am saving my pink floyd cd's onto my computer and i'm having to switch cd's out every few minutes not to mention the fact that their songs are not very condusive to normal thought. so, yeah, i'm out of here for now. toodles 7:15 pm - 19 Oct 2004 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
