Things to do when I get back to school


or, a useless list that I'll forget about soon enough

  1. BUY BOOKS
    This is, by far, the most important thing I need to do. I can live without everything else (or steal it from, say, the basement like we did a couple times last year), but I'm probably going to definitely need books for school)
  2. Go buy curtains at the Curtain Factory Outlet in Weymouth
    No way am I going another year without curtains for my windows. And CFO is the cheapest damn place to get them.
  3. Go get a library card
    Sure, I have one for the Cowtown library, but that doesn't do me much good in Boston, and I need to start reading again. I can feel myself getting stupider.
  4. Get a passport
    Yep. 20 years old and I still do not have a passport. That's changing as soon as possible so I can go to ICELAND next year
  5. Buy necessities
    I'm not doing what I did freshman year and bringing stuff like shampoo and soap and toilet paper to school with me. I can buy all that when I get there.
  6. Stock the fridge and pantry
    WOO HOO I HAVE A REAL KITCHEN THIS YEAR!!!


I am a classic spoons!
Find your own pose!

Classic Spoons Traits and TendenciesCritics may write off Classic Spoons as too "vanilla," but people who dismiss this pose as flavorless clearly have never been properly spooned. Proper placement may be easy to achieve, but a true Classic Spoons is more than two bodies curled back-to-front. It's a rare couple indeed who can create the almost tangible bubble of comfort, safety, and emotional agreement that surrounds this pose. Some theorize that it requires thighs of similar lengths, others claim it takes two outsized hearts to generate even a passable Spoons. But almost everyone agrees that a bona fide Classic Spoons is a clear sign of a pair that is well balanced and complementarily scented.
Comfort ZoneClassic Spoons is a Sun Sleeper pose. Other Sun poses to explore include The Seatbelt and The Heimlich.

After two years at uni with a little car, daddy decided I needed a truck. It still would take me about three trips to get everything either there or back. [But at least they were then *MY* trips and not his, as he would say =P]

Ahhhh, your own fridge. Does it come with an ice maker? That was one of my greatest luxuries I missed, I found.

I desperately need a truck. I'm moving-moving in January, and will need something to cart about things like free couches and chairs. Assuming, of course, I can find such things and won't be forced to having guests sit on overturned boxes and piles of clothing.

Last year, it took two trips to get all of my stuff there, and four to get everything back. I think my belongs were having wild orgies whilst I was out, and multiplying like rabbits.

I doubt it has an icemaker, 'cause it's still dorm hjousing. Just slightly more awesome dorm housing. Please excuse my ntyping. The cat just jumped up onto my chest and I Can't see the computer screen anymore. *stabs wildly around for nthe post button*

Freecycle was my friend =D So was having older siblings remodeling their homes every so often. I still had the tv on cinderblocks and 2x6's. =P

Ahahaha. I swear, my entire apartment is going to be stocked with things I've gotten off of craigslist and freecycle.

I used to do bits and bobs of construction work, so I have a ton of cast-off lumber in the basement that I plan on using as stands for everything. :-D
