How does one spend their last day living in their house of 8 years?
a) Packing
b) Lying on the carpet for hours lookinng up at the ceiling; locating smudges that look like TV actors
c) Attending a funeral
d) All of the above
You'll have to take the prep course to answer that one. I will tell you, though, that while cleaning out my desk I discovered that I have in fact never intentionally thrown away a ticket stub in my entire life. As a result, my belongings are riddled with old tickets like they were fallen leaves, or the littly tiny worms that eat the leaves.
Because I know a fabulous waste of time when I see one, I took this opportunity to catalogue everything I have below. (I know that somebody out there has to find this interesting. Maybe it'll be all the people from Hawaii who have been visiting this site. Yes, I know about you.)

Finally, I found a movie ticket that I read as LOSER, and I was all, "Jason Biggs? Mena Suvari? Amy Heckerling! What a night this must have been!" but the ticket was folded at the end, so it turned out to be a stub for Mike Nichols's CLOSER. It's the only time I've been disappointed by my own good taste.
There's a lot more I'd like to write about, including how I feel like I'm leaving for college all over again and also the proven superiority of middle school, but I have to finish packing. Fortunately for some of you, I'll probably be too apathetic to blog these things anyway by the time I move in to Chicago.

Your blog is very great pot heads might like this hydroponics equipment There's lots of information about hydroponics equipment
Wow, that is awesome spam, and so well catered to your lifestyle!
The Hawaii person is reading my blog too. Isn't Sitemeter amazing?
Hey that wasn't spam. That was me. It was meant for Daniel.
And apparently you can't leave your name any more. The "me" in that last comment was Thomas.
Wimbeldon! I really wanted to see that but I had no one to go with! Where were you? PS- I heart the movie "Loser" and I dont care what any of you say!
"AN AMY GRANT CHRISTMAS @ PHILLIPS (1999)?!" WHAT??!!!! Okay, six years ago you were 13? 14? Still old enough to know better. And saying your parents dragged you to it does not count as an excuse. Long live Satan!

When you have little to do for three weeks on a small tropical island you scour the facebook and select circa 5-7 people you never knew had blogs and begin to stalk them. Frankly Drew, you brought this upon yourself. As did the other poor blogging saps. I accept no responsibility. Unfortunately, I do not remember visiting this rita-character's blog. However, I will begin now, as I find no shame in that game.
*Your anonymous friend in Hawai'i...but as you have many friends in Hawai'i...you have NO CLUE who I am. dammit.
See, I save ticket stubs, but I put them in a binder with plastic sheets meant for collecting cards. So they don't get all over. Its the way to do it.
Just to clarify, in December of 1999, Drew would have been 15. So the whole Amy Grant thing is even a little more daming.
Or a little more awesome?
Clarke: I think Paul Bettany was looking for someone to go with...
Rita: Yes, amazing. And frustrating.
Dave: I only honor Amy Grant songs around Christmas time, so if you want to sublet for another 4 months, be prepare your mind to be blown.
Thomas: Lucky for you I didn't find the ticket for MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING, which both you AND John attended with me, I should remind you.
Kati: But where's the thrill of the hunt?
Anonymous: Let me rephrase. There's a SECOND person visiting from Hawaii who I DON'T know.
Daniel: I was waiting for your defense, since A-Grant has been name-dropped WAY more times on your establishment.
That's a damned dirty lie.
