SHIT IN BOXES
Sisyphus has to roll a boulder up a hill for eternity. The eternal punishment that I will receive (and, believe me, there will be one) will be the following:
1. Packing up all of my belongings.
2. Moving them, in several trips, in a Saturn wagon 20 minutes away.
3. Driving for the rest of the week with 1/4 of my belongings in my car, because I don’t feel like unloading any more shit.
4. Moving them into an apartment (in a one hour window).
5. Unpacking them.
6. Go to 1.
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY. It’s my penance for harassing people on facebook (or allowing my facebook account to be accessed by nefarious individuals).
Moving sucks, plain and simple. And by most measures, I don’t even own that much shit. I’ve lived in the smallest bedroom in a house shared with three other guys for the last two years. Before that I lived in a college apartment that I had to move out of every summer.
You’d think that these situations would result in a small amount of crap. But, against all odds, I’ve accumulated at least 4 Saturn LW200s worth of shit.
How do I have this much shit? How do people with families move (without shooting themselves in the face)? If I ever manage to knock somebody, they poop out some kids, and we live in a house – THAT IS WHERE WE ARE STAYING. FOREVER. Or, if we have to move, I’ll shoot myself in the face as soon as we call the moving company. Or I’ll make sure I sell all the guns to kids on the street ASAP. That way I can’t do the honorable thing, and will instead have to move the belongings of myself (which will certainly balloon to insane levels) and my family.
Hey,
stop complaining…..You are moving onto the next chapter in your life.
You are HAPPY and HEALTHY and you have a car!
Suck it up and stop moaning!
Yes, I think the next chapter is titled “The End”.
hey – next time you move – make sure it is because of a job and make sure they pay to move your stuff…
like full service pack it and put boxes in house…
just don’t have 1/3 of a house delivered to an apartment and 2/3 delivered to a barn 25 minutes away… because even um… 4 years later… 1/2 the stuff is still in there molding/getting eaten by mice/pooped on by birds/who knows what getting it filthy…
but hey – it sure beats moving with a wagon… (oh and even if you pack yourself – the price for a couple guys and a truck to move stuff is pretty damn well worth it)
20min? That’s it?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
boooooring…. life as you knew it is over. now write something awesome.
Bows and Arrows for the kids perhaps instead of guns?
