Box 83.....

I started pitching files yesterday. THe first to go were the 3 boxes of newspaper clippings. THey haven't been sorted, and since I haven't gone through them in 5 years, I don't need them. I saved a few of the clipping files, though.

The next was box 83. This contained printouts of email and bulletin board postings from 1988. This was a hard year for me. I was looking forward to graduating, and couldn't find a job. (Sound familiar?) I was madly in love with a girl named Jeanette, but I was too much of a Nice Guy, and so, things didn't happen between us. It was also the year one of my neighbors (and childhood friend) drowned. ( And it was the year a friend of mine became an ex-friend. )
