Thinking About What to Keep

Once again the date we're moving has been changed. Now supposedly we're leaving NK in October ( right around my birthday ;0) and going straight into the condo. I'll still need to stay with Rich until school ends, just cuz I KNOW I won't feel like commuting from North Smithfield to URI every day. Hell no.

So I've been thinking about some of the things I plan to keep and some of the things I might get rid of. Some things I'm undecided over. . .

Like Kevin's high school ring. I never really *asked* for it, and I'm not sure why he gave it to me in the first place. Anyway, I forgot to give it back to him when I was still in Virginia. Before I blocked him on AIM, he *did* ask me for it a few times. I guess the right thing to do would be unblock him or ask him in an email where I should send it to, but I kinda don't want to open up a line of communication between us again. :p I'm not still mad at him for anything, but he was continuing to give me sob stories *how* many months after we broke up? It's not like we even had that great of a relationship. :/
Throwing it out would feel wrong though. Maybe I'll wait on this one. . .

Small collection of beer bottles? Staying (though my Mom's like "You are NOT setting those up in the new house!! HA). Beer caps? Those I'll probably get rid of.

My record player and punk 45s? Hmmm. I haven't listened to any of them in a LONG time, so both the player and the records have just been collecting dust. I think getting rid of them would be something I'd regret down the line though. Hell, I regret getting rid of all the punk *zines* I amassed during my first years of college. Since the player *is* pretty huge, maybe I'll just move it into Rich's place for awhile. We'll have to talk about this. ;) I'll let you play the Oasis record on it! hehe

I have a ton of books in my room, most of which I'm keeping. I've already given a lot to the library, but some of them are just in really bad shape and need to be tossed. I have a lot of magazines, too, mostly horse ones. I'd like to keep those just because they contain a lot of useful articles, but most of the others will get thrown away.

Speaking of horses, now might be the time to sell some of my equipment, particularly my saddle, my tall boots, maybe my old show jackets, too. Oi, I'm gonna need some emotional support when THAT day rolls around. ._.,,

I also have a ton of *papers* in my room-- on the floor, under my bed, in my closet/dawers, etc.-- and most of them aren't things I'm willing to part with. I have a drawer with printed out stories, one with all my bills/grades/FAFSA stuff from school, all my fricken anarchy stuff, all of my journals, tons of booklets/pamphlets/papers about EDs and nutrition from various places, the notebooks from every history class I've taken, and I'm sure I'm forgetting things. I'm definitely not getting rid of any of it, I'll just have to box them up or something.

I'm not too worried. I have til October to figure it out. ^__^

Not going to work today instantly solved the whole Newport question. Now I don't even have to feel bad about skipping out because with the way I've felt today, there's no way in hell I could have gone. I actually fell asleep this afternoon for an *hour*-- and you know how I am about napping. That only happens when I'm really sick, so I guess I really am. I'm gonna *try* going to work tomorrow. . .and if I don't feel well enough to do 1-9, maybe they'll be okay with me coming in later. It's going to be an insane day; it always is. I can't even imagine how busy the Brooks *in* Wakefield must be. That's what those bastards deserve for getting to work right next to a Starbucks. >:p haha

Hopefully I'll feel better by Tuesday cuz Jen and I still have plans. I'm just waiting for her to email me a definite time and then we'll be all set. I absolutely cannot have a sore throat because there's too much stuff I want to talk about, hehe.

I had this strange craving for rice pudding this evening, so I drove over to S&S and bought some. It's weird because I'd only ever had it once in my life, and I didn't remember it being too good. Am I pregnant?! O_O;;;; (hehe, j/k! [I hope-- ::dies at the idea::]) It must have hit the spot, cuz my hunger switch seems to have shut off for the day. . .a good thing, considering everything I ate!

Well, I'm gonna go lay around some more. It'll probably be another early night, so I'll talk to you guys later. And hey, I found my ASU CD, so I can continue listening to it incessently.
