time is short.
this is what i keep saying to my friends in emails.
they write. they say, "hey. let's get together."
i respond, "time is short."
it is. we're leaving for new zealand in less than two weeks. in that time we need to:
a) pack
b) see our families
c) attend to obligations
d) work
e) purchase entire new wardrobes as a good chunk of everything we own was destroyed by mold, water and insects
ha ha ha.
oh yeah,
f) try not to freak out
by the way, i'm writing this on my new laptop. so far so good. or at least so good compared to the last one. and as compared to my shoes.
the mold ate all my shoes.
it's a long depressing story.

Hey there. A note about mold. You can clean it off and throw it in the washer, but don't throw it in the dryer. Dryers are too humid and don't kill the mold. The proper cure for mold is direct, brutal sunlight. So spaketh a friend with a mold problem in her room.
That is to say if you can stomach wearing anything ever again that had grown a mustache larger than yours.
But you look so GOOD in mold...
