Well, half of one. We started cleaning out the basement (AKA “The Black Hole o’ Computers), which was getting to look too much like the “before” segment on shows like “Clean Sweep” or “The Life Laundry“.

And it’s a lot better, because before it was an utter tip, and now it just looks like… something less than an utter tip. But it’s better. We’ve thrown out (or are donating or selling) a lot of stuff we haven’t used in years. I’ll even be tossing out a big box full of home-made videos of favorite shows of the past… representing years of my life pre-David. Years of my sad, lonely, cat-owning, TV-obsessed years watching Highlander… so yes, I’m letting them go, because if I ever get the crying need to see them, I can get ’em on DVD now. Plus, I’ve got (I think) every episode of Earth2, and quite a few episodes of Space Precinct.

I know, I told you it was a sad and lonely life back then — but fulfilling in its way. And now I find fulfillment in chucking out dusty old boxes of books, painting walls, installing crappy DIY flooring, and blogging.

I swear, I’ve lived at least 5 or 6 totally different lives, and one of these days I’m going to count them all up.
