Clearly I should be packing. Clearly I'm not. The good news is that a lot was accomplished today. First I went to my mom's and put everything into the attic that needs to wait until I come back for it. I packed it all into my truck last night and it was not an easy feat. It was not a huge amount of things but some of the items were heavy. Since I am as antisocial as they come I have been doing everything myself. The drawback is the super heavy items. The awesome part is that I got guns baby! I am apparently have super human retard strength because everything is put away nicely and I did it all myself without ripping my arms off my body. There is a true sense of satisfaction here. The only part of the visit that was disturbing was when my mother looked at me and told me it's nice that I am starting to dress in a feminine way. I'm wearing a head band that matches my tank top. Sure, they are both a nice light cantalope color and sure, I don't usually wear things like headbands, but still. I guess I took the not feminine homeless look a little to far.
After getting back from my mom's I made all those piles just trash piles. I also packed all my clothing into suitcases. One of them is red. Since I am going to be doing nothing but dirty disgusting work until Thursday, I am simply going to wear the same outfit until then. I mean, who am I impressing here? All my nonexistent friends and visitors? I might keep rocking the headband considering it's keeping my hair out of my eyes. Hmm. I might also just throw on a bandana and go back to the homeless look I have so obviously perfected.
So all I have left is convincing someone, anyone, to come and get the massive pile of unwanted but totally useable stuff against the wall and throwing out the rest. It should be interesting. I wicked want to throw everything out my window. It would land right next to the trash barrels and make going down the stairs way easier. It would also mean going up and down the stairs only had to be accomplished once. That's efficient if I do say so myself.
Oh yeah, the dogs are also all set. They received all their shots and I have any and all paperwork that could possibly be needed. The visit to the vet was sad as I really like their doctor and don't like the idea of going to anyone else. Maybe I'll just bring the boys here once a year for their annual check up? He is sad to see me go and was sure to remind me to be careful and "remember that world is full of sick fucks". He cares, how nice. I promised him I would be the definition of careful.
Tomorrow I am going to start the day by hanging out on the back porch drinking coffee and then I am going to commence lugging the trash downstairs (or throwing it out the window, after all, everyone will be at work now won't they?). All of this trash will assuredly fill every single barrel to the tippity top. My neighbors will probably be thrilled. I should have had it done the other night but whatever. They can hate me, I'm leaving. Then I am going to go and get a tarp to put over my things for the Salvy as this must happen for them to pick it up. I told them I would make this happen provided they promise to take the tarp as well. This pick up will be scheduled for Tuesday and I'll be out of here by then so it has to happen. I guess this is a strange request that is very hard to deal with since most people make them promise to *not* take the tarp. I am also going to Staples to get myself something I can carry my files in. I don't have a ton of files but I don't want to just whip them on top of my suitcases or anything. Oh good good news!! I figured out a way to easily bring every single pair of shoes with me! Success! I also figured out a way to bring most of my tools and the little things I wanted to bring but wasn't sure I had anything to pack them into. Go me! All I have to do now is figure out how to bring the things I normally hang in the closet. I am leaning towards just squishing them into yet another suitcase and dealing with the wrinkles when it's time. This is possibly a lousy plan but I guess I'll find out what ideas suck as I go along eh? I'm bringing as little as possible but it still seems like quite a large amount. I am reminding myself that I am taking all my worldy possessions and this comforts me since the words "worldy possessions" comes across in my mind as way more shit than I own. Good stuff.

the way i see it you have two very good options with the hanging bits. 1) garment bag. (or something similar which can be purchased at REI). they make all sorts of things for very important business travelers who need hanging things with no wrinkles.
2)downy wrinkle releaser. magic.
