Hil, does your neighborhood/building have a listserv? Maybe you can find someone else making a run nearby who would be willing to drop off your stuff. (My neighborhood organizes Toxic Taxis for batteries and lightbulbs, etc.,)

Hmm. I know there's a clothing dropoff bin in Adams Morgan, Hil....I'm sure there's others around, but I'm not sure where.

Truly, it is the time of the apocalypse.
Some places do have drop boxes, but they're farther out of the way than I like (ie, I'm lazy). The biggest organization has the drop zone behind a fence because people would come in and dig through the donations before the place opened. Granted, some of those people were just looking to score free stuff, but it seems pretty small spirited to stop people who might need it from taking the things that are being donated to the needy.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
OK, I found one place that takes donations, after several rounds of websites with "We don't accept clothing donations, but this other place does" messages. I can get there on metro, I think. The Metro webpage says it's .21 miles from the U Street station.

I love cherry season. I have eaten three pounds of cherries in the last three days. I do believe I'll be turning into a cherry soon.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I have a friend who was working you and eating well and not losing weight . It was a thyroid problem, but she need the bigger more extensive test to prove it.
one of our friends has a way to help with stuff. figure out what you pay per square foot of space. figure out how much space your stuff ( meaning the clutter/ the might use /that stuff over there in the corner..) takes up. Would you pay for separate storage space, should you maybe get a sp0me storage space? If no -- get rid of it. And while he suspects we have too many books, he does recognizes that we want/need our books - so they aren't clutter.
