Spring Cleaning?

OK, it's hardly spring... snow days are definitely a major perk of this job, but it is around the corner (or at least far off on the horizon). With this in mind, guess who still has too much crap? this kid.

As if getting rid of facebook weren't enough, I propose that beginning tomorrow I rid myself of one clothing related item every day for 4o days. That's 40 items by Easter. Note that this is all clothing related.

Deep breath...

WTF was I thinking?

In a stroke of brilliance I decided that maybe I should give up facebook (aka my #1 addiction) for lent. I'm not crazy into the church thing, but I can definitely get behind going without something in hopes of self betterment. With this in mind I began taking stock of how much time I log on facebook via the interwebs and the iPhone and when I realized that I was missing the opening ceremonies of the Vancouver Olympic games because I was face-deep in facebook, I knew I was on to something. Not really one to appropriately cope with anxiety and apprehension, rather than wait for midnight to roll around, I deactivated my account this afternoon. I am FULLY prepared to make it 46 days (who knew that each Sunday in the lenten season was NOT counted in the 40 days talley?) without this website... after all, I made it 22 years.

Purge Day 10 (The Last One!!!)

Ok... so the goal for the final 10 items is for everything to be of the clothing variety...
This is going to be difficult, but I can do it.

1. 1 pair super cute gray tweed shoes... too small :(

2. navy blue fitted t-shirt (that I have worn since junior year of high school... no biggie)

3. 1 pair pajama pants

4. v-neck fitted t-shirt

5. Obama fitted t-shirt that I never wore... I have another one that I'll keep for posterity's sake

6. Ugly Srat t-shirt with creepy children on the back

7. super worn srat t-shirt that has unfortunate associations with it

8. srat t-shirt from a formal that was before my time (and is also a size medium). Generally I found that by getting rid of t-shirts that weren't really mine or weren't size small, I was able to cut out several... I still need to get rid of many many many of them though.

9. Bread Loaf T-shirt from my summer in Santa Fe. The back of the shirt is awesome, and the front of the shirt is super lame / awkward. I only wish that I had been in the computer lab when WWIII broke out over how to do the logo on the front. I would not have been on the winning side, but my opinion would have been heard nonetheless.

10. 2 non-fitted polo shirts!

FINISHED!
