the end of summer as i know it

Home from camp yesterday, for the last time in '08. Home is relative as I am packing up all of my earthly belongings today and moving them nine blocks south and three blocks west. This process is always so frustrating for me. Why do I have such a large bed? Why is the frame made of iron? Why is my television so heavy? Why do I need such a large dresser? (Okay, that one was my father's and has chevron-engraved handles and I love it. But it is a beast.) How on earth do I have so many clothes and so much junk and so much accumulated mail?! Not to mention books and magazines. Aye, me. Mostly I think I don't like it because I need to ask for help. There's the rub!

So anyway. Had another fantastic, utterly exhausting week. My back hurts and I'm sleep deprived. Now I start looking forward to the fall. A quieter life perhaps? We'll see.

And now for something completely different. If you want to laugh so hard you cry (like I did), click on THIS. Haha!! (Some content may be inappropriate for young children.)
