Due to widespread and popular demand (mostly from people who have not read things I have written) I am becoming a blogger, at least for the upcoming year. Now seems as good a time as any to start, considering that the big move is in less than nine days, and (skip this part, Mom) I haven't packed yet. I did have two boxes packed, with things that I was certain I wouldn't need before I left. Like my doll collection. You know, the one that has sat on a shelf in whatever apartment I was living in at the time for the past three years. And yet, oddly enough, I had to bust into the box to use some of the dolls for pirate camp. So now they have taken residence on my couch, because I am afraid that the second I pack them back up, I will regret the decision.

Alas. I will shortly be embarking on my first adventure...selling furniture on Craig's List. Not as exotic as what you may have been expecting, but please wish me luck. Unless you know anyone who is in the market for an entertainment center, tv, and mismatched dining room set...
