Do the Swap

There was an article in yesterday's V Voice about folks getting together and swapping clothes and other stuff. Apparently Oprah did a show about hoarding as some sort of form of OCD, so getting rid of stuff is all the rage. Not certain if swapping actually qualifies as geting rid of things - think about that for a minute -but it's a far better option than going out shopping for even more crap.

They used to call this community, I think. Anyway, defy the lords of commercialism - get together and SWAP.

hi meg--the movers are holding my stuff hostage so i can't swap. yet.

laurel was my college roommate in chattanooga, before iowa happened to either of us.

i think i only learned to read because my mom's from cuba, which is souther than tennessee but kicks butt in literacy generally.
