Whoa. This is just... whoa. Any of you who think you're recluses just because you only go out like once a week... check THIS. It's about some very famous recluses of mid-20th-century New York. It's also like the police reports from the aftermath of some story by Poe.

I had veggie patch pizza (very cheap and very filling) at Applebee's tonight and returned a book to B&N (Five-Finger Discount by Helene Stapinski, which I just wasn't into). I returned something to Target, too, but somehow left with more. I have been trying to decide between a pink lacy camisole set and a blue one. I still haven't quite made up my mind, but one has to go back to the mothership, cos I really cannot afford them. (How often do I say that? I can't afford either but I'm willing to keep one.)

It occurs to me that spring break is almost over and I haven't done a single interesting thing so far. The schedule of the next few days pretty much insures that I won't be doing a single interesting thing with the rest of the break, either. I suppose homework and housework are still accomplishments and I can do interesting things in another six weeks probably without noticing the difference.

I went through a miniature fit of panic and unhappiness earlier this evening, but I caused it myself through a total mental trick, and in realizing that I was playing through an inane stack of "what if?"s I was starting to upset myself... I started to not be upset. Close call, though.

The Collyers brothers and the Collyers mansion are really well known, at least in NYC. My parents are always saying my two rooms would fit right in there and they're probably right.

I was going to say, "Oh, they must be exaggerating!", but then I remember that you actually lost a musical instrument of moderate size in there, and I have to ponder the possibility.

We'll know for sure if you die after being caught in one of your own booby traps while trying to crawl out to go to a David Bowie concert.... ;)

I know! and I don't feel messy at ALL now. :)

That's a pretty amazing story. I found more about it: http://www.nydailynews.com/manual/news/bigtown/chap106.htm
