I Have Better Things to do Than Clean

Hellllllllo from the grand mess that is my bedroom!

No, really…it’s a MESS.

I’m not naturally MESSY. Disorganized chaos, on occasion, but usually, I go through and clean it out. I’m not a fan of clutter.

But my BEDROOM!

We’ve tried over the years to clean it up, but it always becomes a mess again. It’s not done deliberately, I don’t leave things out, it’s the fact that there is NO PLACE to store everything. And then when we clean the rest of the house, random objects get dumped in my room, and try as I might to get rid of them, they always come back.

I’m really cursed.

So I’m sitting in the middle of the Disaster Zone (which, by coincidence, has the same initials as my name). Don’t ask how I managed to get my laptop all the way back there. Trust me, it wasn’t easy. I’m on a quest right now, you see. I miss my postcard collection. They used to hang up on my wall, all of the beautiful postcards I collected from my European travels. And my apartment bedroom is so geeked out (posters of Portal, Star Wars, Doctor Who and the Beatles), I figured it could also use some niceness.

The problem is, I have no idea where my little bag of postcards has gone.

I’ve worked my way over to the desk, which is the last place I remember seeing them, about three years ago? It’s been a while. But the desk is the most logical place for them to be, or maybe the file cabinet. So I’ve decided to start looking over here. And, for your amusement, the random things I find.

  • My favorite pillow (Why is this HERE? Oh, right, I was afraid if I brought it to school, someone would have sex on it.)
  • Penguin stickers (Rachel E, I might mail these to you)
  • Song book for church choir
  • Ducks (My old friend David is to blame)
  • Journal from Europe (YAY! I MUST BLOG THIS!)
  • Box of busted crayons and pencils
  • Wall-E plush
  • Art projects from high school
  • Broken coconut cup
  • The complete works of The Tower, 2008-2009 (I can’t throw this out, I was photographer and editor)
  • Plastic easter eggs
  • 6th grade camp tape (Who has a VCR anymore? Oh, right. We do)
  • Bag of spare nerf darts from Thespians Assassins 
  • Angry Bird (not a real bird, don’t worry. Although. Would not be surprised.)
  • Notes from middle school
  • Doodles from high school of me and my best friend at our weddings (we were BORED and felt like designing dresses)
  • Movie magazines featuring Harry Potter
  • Pokemon-themed cape from Thespian scavenger hunt
  • Two half-finished scarves
  • Many mismatched knitting needles
  • Star Wars postcards (oooooh!)
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I FOUND MY BOOK! AT LAST!!! I CAN FINISH READING! Sneaky book, hiding in a box under the Twilight series (I would never think to look THERE normally) This was a TRIUMPH…

Oh.

Right.

I was looking for postcards.

Ehhhhhhhh….tomorrow.
