Cleansweep 2004
Jan. 14th, 2004 03:00 amWell, I’ve been back in FL for about a week now. I am in the process of completely cleaning out my bedroom. And I do mean completely. Has anyone seen the show Cleansweep on TLC? That’s what I’m doing. I took everything out of my room and moved it to the living room (with mom’s permission), and I’m in the process of sorting it into Sell, Toss, and Keep piles. I have also moved all the furniture to the center of my room, and I have cleaned the walls and filled in the holes. Tomorrow, I start painting.
Perhaps it is silly to bother doing this when I’m just planning on moving to Tallahassee this summer anyway. But I thought it would be a) good to downsize my worldly possessions in preparation for the move, and b) nice to paint a room in my parents’ house that desperately needs painting, especially considering that they are letting me live here rent-free.
Of course, it is a rather daunting task and I still have a lot of work ahead of me. Not to mention having to sleep on the couch, where my cat sees fit to attack me about 10 times each night.
Here’s a cool meme from
chicagoamy who friended me as a result of a recommendation she got when she posted it in her LJ:
Recommend to me...
1. A movie.
2. A book.
3. A musical artist, song, or album.
4. An LJ user not on my friends list.
5. Something to do in the next two months.
6. A website

Date: 2004-01-19 11:13 am (UTC)1. An old movie called Crossroads...not the one with Britney Spears. It's about a young white kid who journeys through the south with an old blues harmonica player trying to find a lost Robert Johnson song.
2. Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. A great sci-fi novel
3. Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd.

6. EBay! I recently got hooked on bargain shopping.
