What A Mess!

Note: I had written this blog entry already when my iTunes froze. I quickly went to quit the application and accidentally quit Firefox instead thus closing and losing the post. I know it 'autosaves' these posts typically, but strangely I noticed there was an error trying to do so just before the mishap. Bummer.


You know, you would think that with me being the only one here for a week, it'd be easier to keep things in order. But ever since everyone left a few days ago, I have really dropped the ball. Everything I have worn is on the floor or somewhere else that isnt the laundry basket, dishes are in the sink, etc. Typically, when everyone is here, I am more on my game, but now when it is just one person to worry about I can't seem to get it together. Not sure what that is all about.

Getting up early tomorrow and getting breakfast with a friend at the Tick Tock Diner before heading into Jersey for the night. Hoping to be back by a decent hour on Wednesday and get some solid time in, in the city.

To Quote A Show

If you do your spring cleaning now, you know what you will have to do when spring gets here? Nothing.

I don't know if that's exactly the quote but it comes from The Office. It might not have been my reasoning for my cleaning today, but it applies. Recently, when a boggle cube when missing, I pulled some of the furniture out to look for it. What I found was hidden gems. The gems are priceless. Why? Because they literally are worth nothing. Aside from the large clumps of dust, several bottle caps, batteries, change, and pens lay underneath the couches. I pulled them away, along with the run and most of the other furniture in the living room today and cleaned the floors, the baseboards, etc. There is definitely a sense of satisfaction or motivation that comes from a clean home. Not a surface clean, but a get-in-the-cracks-clean that only happens a few times a year.



Spring break is upon us. I will be staying in New York City to check out and check off a few things on my list of places to see before I graduate. Hopefully the next weeks BreadCrumbs will consist of snapshots of these activities or places. Wish me luck.

love myself better than you

i have been on a nirvana kick. it is sad to say that until the release of the deluxe edition of Bleach was just released i did not own bleach or have it in any form. part of the reason was that i liked the idea of still having a nirvana full length out there to listen to - the feeling that i hadnt heard it all yet. but upon this release i purchased the album and the Live at Reading DVD in the same trip. Got around to viewing the DVD today and now i cant seem to want to put anything else on. downside? there isn't one. it's nirvana.

it's amazing how much shit you can come across when you clean up your room - not food or gross stuff, more like guitar picks, course syllabi from the first days of class, pens - so many pens, etc. good thing my apt is small - who knows what could go missing until a later day if we/i had more space.
