meh

been doing a lot of excavation work, aka cleaning out, of boxes i've placed in storage.
these boxes were out-of-sight-and-mind because i didn't want to go through them.

however ... it's been months, and for some years, since i packed them.

it's amazing what i deemed save-worthy. thankfully, a nice chunk of the saved stuff is out-of-date magazines, random Op-Ed printouts from the New York Times, and trinkets i don't remember where they came from or why i kept them.

the bright side of cleaning out boxes is that i found old creative writings i did in high school and college. they're good, if i do say so myself.

i plan to post some writings i truly love in the coming days. i hope you enjoy them.
