bubbly and lovely: i'm too poor for therapy.

been there and back again. too many thoughts and opinions and hormones get me in trouble.

in yesterday's arts section of the new york times (which i got today): a first edition of jane austen's pride and prejudice was sold for $62,000 at an auction in edinburgh, scotland, last week. about the discovery of the three-volume set the paper says, "The 1813 edition was discovered by a Scottish family who did not realize they had a complete set until they were packing up to move out of their castle" [emphasis mine].

sheesh. i had a hard enough time moving out of my one-bedroom apartment last summer, i can't imagine packing to move out of a CASTLE. i'm sure this isn't a shoddy castle. but a question that begs to be asked is what the heck were they doing packing up their own castle!??!?!?!? you'd think that they would have enough money to hire top quality movers. or maybe this is why they are moving out of the castle in the first place.

i think i've pondered this issue far too long.
