accumulation anxiety

Does the T still take tokens? Does anyone want, uh, five of them?

What about NYC subway tokens?

A set of Martin acoustic guitar strings (medium)? Some blank staff paper?

One of the CD display racks Oasis sent me?

Rugs, blankets, construction paper, blocks, marbles, games, tools, nails, screws, frames, office supplies, art supplies, clothes hangers, clothes hampers, looseleaf binders, report covers, chairs, desks, a 48-disc CD wallet, CD shelves, bookshelves, shelf lamps, floor lamps, table lamps, light bulbs, clocks, an end table, a coffee table, a futon, pots, pans, dishes, a busted melodica, blank videotapes, a DVD player?

Is my compulsive inability to throw things away ridiculous yet?

I guess I'm mostly looking for locals to take this stuff, except for the subway tokens. And mostly the smaller items--the furniture can go to Goodwill.

I could totally use blankets...this new house is very cold and the one I have just isn't enough anymore. Also the cd wallet would be fantastic.

Just out of curiosity, how exactly do you "bust" a melodica?

In this case, by letting, probably, exposure to the elements and the accretion of saliva to warp some of the reeds slightly out of tune, followed by cracking the thing open and attempting to fix it. With soap and water. I don't remember too clearly.

I'll bring some stuff to the show tomorrow.

You should really stop this whole "getting wasted and trying to repair the melodica" thing. People are worried about you. Well okay, not about you, about the melodica.

I wouldn't HAVE to get drunk if my melodica worked right.
