Just wanted to stop by and say I hope you have a good one! See you Monday.
I took the day off from work on Tuesday, knowing that I would be exhausted from a late night of driving after the Death Cab for Cutie show (which, by the way, blew my mind just as hard as I expected it to). Instead of wasting a day sleeping in and then sitting on the computer like I had originally planned, I decided to put some stuff in my car and drive to my parents' house for a day of unpacking and organizing my old room.
I'm sometimes impressed with my high-school self. For example, the above wind chime was picked out by a younger me, and it's just perfect. It hangs outside my bedroom's porch door and I love it so much. It's just right for its space.
I cannot say the same thing for my bookshelf.
Here it is, in all its disheveled glory. It's stuffed with books I don't read anymore and actual trash that hails from a world where I did not appreciate the perfection that is a built-in bookcase. So, I spent three hours emptying it and starting over.
It still needs some work, especially in the space that should be my desk, but at least what's there is alphabetized.

One of the oldest things in my house needs no improvement. Rocky hung out with me all day.
I think he's only getting more awesome in his old age.
There's a lot to be said for growing up.
At least, that's what my dog told me.
Very rarely do Rob and I manage to take good pictures together. Usually, one of us is the one behind the camera, so we never end up in the same photos. And then, when we do happen to be on the same side of the camera together, there's that 15 inch height difference, so unless we're sitting down or I'm standing on some steps or something, we look funny.
So when we went out, all dressed up to take pictures for this post, I asked my brother to shoot a few of me and Rob.
