things i found while cleaning my closets, part 2
- letters to apartment managers about bad conditions and repairs
- Starbucks barista gear: cap, apron, & workbook (Part 9, Pastry Display)
- a plush backpack shaped like the red teletubby
- a stuffed cow (i had mad love for this cow; it came from IKEA)
- my address book from high school--impressionist art, of course
- anotebook with my "daily pages" exercises from when i tried following "the artist's way" in february 1996, complete with random thoughts about the darling boy, who was making my little mind and heart whirl endlessly twelve years ago
- termination letter from the LA Philharmonic/Hollywood Bowl, November 1999
- almost every single evaluation form filled out for my services rendered as a student tutor in the csula writing center, sept 2004-may 2006
- a stack of magazines with Susan Sarandon on the cover
- notes for a screenplay bunny and i were writing that included a character described as Jaime, the free-spirited dyke
- a felt zip-up power-puff girls organizer
- more mushy cards and notes between me and an ex bf, including printouts of emails, one of which includes the line "guess what babe? we got the internet!" (it was 1999)
- the box of all the cards i've ever been given (hello, sentimental packrat) including "congratulations on finishing grade school" cards, "happy 12th birthday" cards (and 13-26 birthdays, it seems), cards from people i haven't talked to in years, and one really funny christmas card from a friend from 1995 that has a personal note to me reading: "at least one of us is getting some right now!" (which, i guess i would have had the darling boy to thank for that--thanks, honey!)
- every magazine published with Princess Diana on the cover from when she died
