Moving

I'm going to start this thing off with a highly controversial opinion: moving is a pain in the ass.  I know I may have offended some of you, but I swear it's true.  The primary reason for this fact is that, as humans, we have a tendency to collect things.  And by things, I mean stuff.  Clothes and books and games and useless knick-knacks.  In general, the longer we stay in one place, the worse it gets.

Therefore, the past week or so has consisted of eliminating as many of my possessions as possible.  Sometimes the choices are easy -- nostalgic photos from my childhood, gone.  Other choices are more difficult -- signed poster of Stacee Jaxx, you're staying!  Fortunately, after a great  deal of agonizing, I managed to wittle all of my worldly possessions down to a backpack, a duffle bag, and a few small U-Haul boxes.  Tomorrow, it's off to Spain.
