Saturday: Pack clothes into suitcase for con. Poly-bag unwrapped T-shirts. Load and run dishwasher. Go to big BBQ-scented street fair. Test-drive SUV. Discover latent soccer-mom tendancies. Get scared of soccer-mom tendancies and swear off SUVs. Avoid sunburn and heat exhaustion (although just barely on the latter). Get home, unload dishwasher. Collapse in a heap at 8 pm due to walking way more than I'm used to, and probably not eating enough.
Sunday: Fix smoke detector that wouldn't stop F#$%ing beeping. Begin to pack up shirts in boxes for Origins (x9). Realise I don't have enough boxes. Curse and swear about lack of cardboard. Reduce quantities to fit into available boxes. Load boxes onto dolly. Drop box on my foot. Curse and swear about my foot. Attempt to fit boxes into car. Curse and swear and sweat a lot. Discover the back seats fold down flat. Wish I'd known that 5 cons ago. Load 4 large boxes, and 3 small boxes. Hear thunder, decide to postpone final 2 "load the car" trips until tomorrow. Buy more coffee at the little store in my apartment building.
