i have to put my stuff in storage today. i've got, um...seven boxes, a footlocker, and this plastic box thingy, which i'm in the process of labeling. i don't like this, and i still don't know how i'm going to get the boxes down the stairs in... two or three hours. and this paper. damn, i have to write the paper. *fumefume*
also, it was supposed to rain ickily all week but the sun's come out today and it's actually hot. the only reason i'm not sweating is because i happened to have hung up one of my skirts instead of folding it in the skirt drawer, which means it escaped being packed with the rest. now i look like summer. in... just over a month, i think, my cousin's getting married and i'm going to be a bridesmaid. i remember with startling clarity planning, with aubry, our weddings when we were eight and nine and ten, in hot springs, arkansas over fourth of july weekend (and if i get married in december i'll wear a green velvet gown with white fur trim and my bridesmaids will weqar red velvet, but if i get married in january i'll wear white velvet...). i remember when i couldn't imagine being at college. it wasn't that long ago, in fact. i think some tea is in order, folks. hm hm hm hm hm.

i don't dislike counting crows. they're sort of alright. but they're sort of, eh, overstylized. it's hard to explain. they're trying really hard to be what they are. and they think they're cool, i imagine--this was initially my problem with matchbox 20. yeah, they're catchy, but--.
someone tell me you know what i'm talking about.
in other news, spent about half an hour chasing around outside looking for the storage dudes. since they said they would be at my dorm and the one next door at a certain time today, i didn't worry about any more details. my dorm isn't that big--i figured i'd be able to find them.
but no. god alone knows where they were. i left a message, and if the little fuckers don't come tomorrow they can carry my fucking footlocker down the stairs themselves.
why, yes, i'm pissed.
and i haven't started writing up linguistics--am tabulating data still (*snore*).
