Moving
No matter how many boxes you get, you never, ever end up with enough boxes.
You start putting your stuff in beach bags and trash bags. You start tying up stuff in sheets. You put stuff in laundry baskets and set it in the backseat of your car, too embarrassed to let the movers see your laundry baskets full of coathangers, blank CDs, toilet paper, and the morning’s bills.
You tell yourself those laundry baskets and trash bags full of socks will not stay in your car for more than one day.
Why do you lie? Why do you lie to yourself like that?
