Eek. Starting to panic again. It's almost August.... I just turned in my last months rent, and a letter saying 'Thanks for the great caretaking, but...," and my brother was just over to help me look for cars...
That was intereting... we looked at CarSoup and a donated-car auction place, which was pretty interesting...
I have had this idea in my head that I want a Saturn, so I was thinking that this 1993 one seemed pretty nice, but then Robert suggested putting it lower on my list due to the fact that it's almost at 200k miles. His favorite was a Toyota Camry. I guess so far on my list of makes to keep in mind are Saturns, Toyotas, Hondas, and Oldsmobiles. Getting an Olds would be odd, just because my mom has a Cutless Ciera, so if I got one of those it would be like I was still driving my mother's car... I don't know. And they do seem a bit bigger than what I want, but Robert has been pretty empathetic on saying that I probably actually want a bigger car than what I think I want (He's already talked me out of getting a two-door).
Car! Scary! Ahh!
And then, moving into the Festival grounds tomorrow... I realized just how much stuff I have... I'm no longer swimming in shit, I'm just wading in it, but that's still pretty gross. I posted to the MRFFriends listserve the latest list of my stuff, so maybe a couple people will want to take the furnature off my hands, otherwise I get to haul it to the HAP for various immigrants and all.
I'm getting really ruthless... All morning I've been eyeing my CD collection, going, "Hrm... I don't really need those, do I?" ... eep. Yesterday I casually tossed a t-shirt I love and adore, that has had a slight hole in it for a couple months now. A week ago, I couldn't bear the thought of trashing it; yesterday, I just went, "Meh." And out it went.
I'm going to the Convergence Volunteer Appreciation party later tonight, and then packing like a fiend for tomorrow morning.
