Unpacking Woes

[yolen]

When 2 packrat bookworms marry, it makes for interesting adventures in unpacking. So much of our stuff is still in boxes. I just opened up a box and recoiled at how many damn pairs of shoes I have. Well, it's not a crazy number of shoes, but the problem is where to put them all! And where the eff will I put all of my decorative tchotckes, and all of my books...fings is the dominant book owner around here and most of the shelving units are already taken and shit, there's still more books waiting for me at my parent's house! Also, I'm utterly daunted by looking into the boxes marked "Miscellaneous" from the last frantic night of packing up fings' apt before he moved to the condo. It will be a marvel to behold what those boxes contain, and a mystery where it will all go. And the guest bedroom is exploding with "stuff". And we need a sofa (and a ride to IKEA to get one!), and a new dining room set. Ack. Like I said, interesting adventures :P.

As far as books go, I recently took about four or five shelves' worth that I figured I was never going to read again and stuffed them in banker's boxes. If I ever do need them again, I think it will be worth the trouble to dig out.

I should probably also see about raising my bed a few inches so I can fit a banker's box underneath, come to think of it.
