State of Affairs

Personal Bits

The picture below isn’t a shot from the set of Gummo, no. It’s our living room when you decide that your life needs reorganizing and you empty out all our closets at once.

This test of hoarding/purging is in time for two events this month:

The Cabbagetown Festival, where the entire neighbourhood becomes a giant flea market and citizens expell the contents of their garages, attics and closets into the streets for sale and murmured ridicule. We’re pricing things for light speed sale – I don’t think we have anything over $20. Family and friends are not allowed to visit our table, lest they see the results of failed gifting.

Also this month is my Mom’s birthday party, happily hosted at Casa RoboShark. Our first “real” party since getting sole possession of the apartment. Nervous? Slightly. Dinner will be easy, yet memorable: I’m thinking something like turduckhen.

    We’ll be out there this Saturday (Rain day Sunday, or if we havent sold all of it). Every sale gets either an Iron Giant action figure (I have a box of 1000 of them) or a mystery VHS!
