packing; also [meme] (not) scary

[trochee]

I packed not one, not two, but something closer to nine boxes full of books today. Mostly trade paperback collections of comics. I think I should revise my renters' insurance upwards: these wouldn't be cheap to replace.

I discovered that all twenty-eight super-small bound volumes of Lone Wolf and Cub fit neatly into a box that held "Legende del Milagro" tequila, with exactly enough room left over for all five of Scott Morse's Soulwind.

In lieu of real content, a meme from mythalethe:

You Are Not Scary

Everyone loves you. Isn't that sweet?

How scary are you?

What? Only nine boxes? I'll bet you left Providence with more than that -- how many years ago. . . ? Or was that just the comics?

I shudder to think how many boxes it would take to pack up our house. Of course not ALL of them are mine . . . . just 95%. :-)

nine boxes was just what I packed *last* night. There's plenty more to go.

And yes, these were almost exclusively comic TPBs and science fiction paperbacks. And one box of readings-packets from Brown that will -- because it is labeled on the outside -- probably never be opened again. :/
