Title
1981 Yearbook
Description
EMERGENCY!
UHAUL
NEEDED
The elevator's broke again, I've just filled in all
the holes in the wall, and my parents just arrived with the car. Gee, it sure looks small. For
nine months I've lived in this abode. I'm ready
to go home.
It'll be a wonder if I make it. When I came I
remember that all my earthly possessions fit
easily into the trunk and back seat of the car.
Now, all I see is wall to wall boxes.
I guess I'll have to throw something out, but
what? Not my Muppet Movie glasses. I just
couldn't part with my Miss Piggy glass. I practically had to steal it to get it. I guess I could toss
the portable typewriter. It was used only a couple of times anyway.
I suppose I'd better start cleaning under the
bed. Whew, it's dark under here. Hey, there's
my other pink footie. I thought it was gone for
good. Pink footies aren't too easy to come by.
Let's see, what else ... so that's what the foul
odor has been these past few weeks. I thought
I'd eaten all of that 7-Eleven burrito, not just
half. And here I'd been blaming it on the suite
next door. Enough for the bed. Anything else
under here has probably grown to the floor.
Well, what do you know it all fit in the car.
Good thing mom and dad drive a river barge.
Lord help us if we have an accident on the way
home. There seems to be just one more thing to
go home. Where will I ever put it? It's only me.
