today's mission is to secure a storage area. i've called a couple of places, and decided to take a 5x10(x10h) space at public storage in capitol hill. it'll be $98.80/month. all of my worldly possessions are going there tomorrow, except for one box of books and whatever i decide to put into my luggage to take with me to cali next week. oh, and whatever stuff i need to live in my empty space for a week--air mattress, bedding, etc.
this feels really weird--scary and exciting, both. i'm kind of excited about the work i'll be doing, and also about living in a place i've never lived before, even if only temporarily. i'm sure i'll learn a thing or two.
i think the most painful part, so far, has been trying to pare my book choices down to a single, shippable box. lol--it's like i have all these ideas about what i'll be able to read or review in 10 weeks, but i *know* i probably won't crack half of them. so send me some ruthlessness, ok? cuz i'll feel dumb, if i have to ship back a box of books i never even looked at.
