Entries with tag "clothes"

Like Howard Carter unsealing the final doorway

I just opened one of the 21 boxes of stuff that I shipped to myself when I moved down here last year. It turns out it's got all of my favorite T-shirts in it (Chroma Key, Habit Forming, Tourniquet, Gwar, Lost In Thought, Strapping Young Lad, &c). Most of my clothes came down here via Parcel Post, since they weren't fragile or anything, but I shipped this smaller box via Priority Mail, because it was the stuff I knew I wouldn't want to wait two to four weeks to have; I'd want it right away.

Funny, then, that it sat unnoticed next to my room for over a year before I thought to open it. It really highlights the way my choice of clothes has evolved since I started working full-time.

The unfortunate part, though, is that these clothes were dirty when I shipped them down here.
