Youth is like diamonds in the sun, and diamonds are forever.

I'm in the middle of a huge pre-spring decluttering project so I'm posting quickly and not taking any time to talk about anything. Sorry.

(Photos of things I'm keeping can be seen here and things I'm discarding—read: donating to Goodwill—can be seen here, if you're interested. Both sets will likely grow over the next week or so. What can I say? Oprah says this is the year to do it! Heh.)
