Why couldn't my parents have been hippies and raised me to live a spartan existence? I have way too much STUFF.

Wait, scratch that. The idea of my dad in a tie-dye and flares is enough to put me off that idea.

You could have been raised by aesthetics... I think that is the right spelling, you know like the people who eschew material belongings --- maybe esthetics? You know like Siddhartha after he renounced being a Brahmin.

Then you'd be forced to make hammered dulcimers for a living and War Pigs just does NOT sound the same played on a hammered dulcimer.

My dad and mom were "swingers" back in the day. Post-hippie hangover, I guess. Brrrrr. Just thinking about it gives me the wiggins.

We're using Covan, which is a company U of A has a contract with. It wasn't exactly smooth sailing on the CT end--I'll let ya know how the whole thing ends up. :) The estimate was $4,000 for all my shit (which is a LOT) for us doing most of the packing, and $5,000 for them doing it. We'll see how it ends up, though.

Yikes!!

Could you imagine what a whack job you could've been? Your name could have been Raincloud and you could be listening to Yanni right now. *shudders*
