05/12/2004 Archived Entry: "packing my boxes"

Began packing up for the big move next month. I'm reminded of Benjamin's "Unpacking My Library" only in reverse. Discoveries while I pack (and yes, I think this would be yet another writing assignment: describe the objects you discover while "packing" up your home. Use "packing" as metaphor more than literal association):

  • A photo of me at the University of Florida holding a coozy-enclosed Budweiser. What the hell?
  • Marvel Tales Staring Spider Man: "Where Crawls the Lizard."
  • A gun magazine
  • A copy of Always Stick Up For the Underbird (look that one up to see what it is)
  • Lots of video tapes with Simpsons episodes on 'em.
  • The flyer for the Souths conference I organized at UF.
  • Unopened package of wildflower seeds
  • Brewing catalogue from William's Brewing
  • A receipt from a late night hotel (no no, ha ha, Tom Waits allusion, folks).

    Nice try, Rice. But no dice.

    I've already reported you to the powers that be. You have 24 hours to remove all those beer links from your blog.

    But don't worry. I'll send a case of Shiner up your way. Welcome to the club, pal! No dress code here.

    The only thing I can think of is that:
    A. I was young (pre-grad school? Maybe)
    B. It took place at an Accounting recruitment part that I went to with my sister - which would mean that I was young.

    Thus - I didn't know better.

    Aha! Physical evidence exists: you're not a TRUE beer snob. Please turn in your membership card at the door.
