After some reassurance from Optimistic, I decided to tackle the awful thing called "cleaning your room." Only...I haven't actually officially cleaned-out my room since I moved into it around six-seven years ago. Now I've picked up my clothes off the floor before, and occasionally thrown out old stuff to the D.I. trailer, but I've never redone my room like this before. I have ridden my room of 2 garbage bags full of clothes, and 1.5 bags of random crap. I also moved all of my clothes out of one dresser and hung them in my closet and got rid of the dresser. Along with a strange basket thing collecting junk.
I seriously never realized how big my room was until this day. Maybe later tonight I'll collect enough might to clean out under my bed.
Until another sister comes and tries to weasel her way into my bedroom, I think my room should stay pretty clean. I love how I say "until" because I know it's going to be very soon. Sooner or later they come crawling back for a mattress, and I'm thinking of just putting my foot down. I've waited too long for this cleanliness and nobody's taking it away from me.
p.s. on a side note, I'm wondering if I could possible create a black hole type-thingy to put in our backyard so that instead of having to haul crap to the D.I. trailer I could just dump it out back. Tell me if any such thing is possible.
p.p.s I think I may have an unknown disease. I'm an obsessive compulsive cleaner that only has sudden urges to clean when the filth becomes unbearable. Like today. I think I went crazy for an hour or two.

Right on, right on. I bet it's a snap keeping things organized now, right?
Also, I picture the title to this post being spoken by Martin Luther King.
"Clean at last, clean at last, thank God Almighty we are clean at last!"
I have the same disease. When I get the erge to clean..watch out...but it only happens once in a blue moon
Are those your feet in the Jack Purcells? Just curious. Maybe now that your room is clean, you could work on the bathroom...it could use some definite help.
