Hmm

Dad's out poking at my car, despite of the fact that he knows that the wheels have just been changed, along with the oil, and that none of the vehicle's fluids needed to be refilled. It makes him happy, so I'm going along with it. Mom's just been out grocery shopping. In the general spirit of festivities I've decided to go through my closet again to see what else I get to throw away this year (before there were things I could not throw away without getting yelled at, such as the Chinese calligraphy books, now I can get away with donating them --let's face it, penmanship has never been an interest of mine; I'm keeping the Chinese watercolor books instead), since my parents were thinking that moving might be in order within the next few years (still at the thinking stage). Meanwhile, I want to make a post just to remark that my God, when did I get so much stuff?!
