There are three rooms on the third floor of my parents' house. Housemate Phil had had one chunk of the one that my brother James is moving into. My boxes that are still unpacked from my last two dwellings occupied another chunk. As my brother works tonight on cleaning off his bed so he can sleep on it, I'm trying to winnow out and condense my boxes to make room for him to put his stuff him. It's a good excuse, and good timing. I've needed to do this for a long time.

It's fun, the three of us (my two brothers and I) kind of hanging out up here. We're doing our own things, James cleaning up, I cleaning and working on my computers, and Tim playing with a DS, but we also keep interacting with each other. With the mini-frdge and microwave and things up here too now, it's kind of like all of us sharing an apartment.

I'm not going to get picture editing done tonight, but I *am* almost done with my rebuilt of my picture-editing computer, so I feel like that counts as progress toward my goal.

In the decision on whether to get rid of the several hundred game and program CDs I've collected from thrift stores and such over the years or hang on to them on the chance I'll want some of them down the road, my pack-rat instincts are winning out.

I can get media binders that hold 520 CDs from Ebay for about $23 shipped. Anyone know of any cheaper? Right now they're filling up a largeish box and are in need of consolidation.
