just got this web-cam and I can't help stripping

everything is off the walls of the living room and kitchen and bathroom at the Center. it is hard to overstate the depressing seriousness of this step. the grapes are hanging proudly, though, dammit. they're gonna be there until the bitter end. we had some junk people come and take away a frightening mass of crap from the yard, including that old metal desk and the basketball apparatus. got some boxes and milkcrates from behind wal-mart, packed up the books and movies. still no place to go, though. which is really pretty funny. and my parents are here, wringing their hands over the whole thing. haHA. we have like nine days. plenty of time.

and calvin got a job! for three days at us bank via a temp agency. this weekend. sticking my toes in the water of reality.

sammy will be here soon, and then you will see. you'll all see.
