The suitcases were brought to my place of work. As I sat around trying to look busy, Ruby walked in with my long lost suitcases. They were greener than I remember- huh. Anyway- They were promptly handed over and I could barely contain my excitement. Ruby walked off to do "more important things" so I was left with my luggage in the staff room. I promptly sat and opened suitcase #1 which contained my shoes. Glorious, amazing, beautiful shoes. I swear my eyes teared up. It also contained my desk calendar- which I promptly pulled out and placed on my tiny desk. Of course my down comforter was there too. I had dreamt of this down comforter for a long time because I've been freezing every day for the last 2 months.
Suitcase #2 was also full of scarves and clothes galore. My happiness was immeasurable. I had the goofiest grin on my face all day. It didn't even bother me that the school was freezing (they don't turn on the heating...ever) or that Ruby was annoying me. At the end of the night Ruby told me that they would drop off my suitcases in the apartment in the morning. That's when I yelped "No! Erin and I will take it with us". I couldn't believe that after 2 months Ruby wanted me to wait one more day to get my stuff home. Erin and I dragged my suitcases home. That night I sat in my room and stared at them like an imbecile. I imagined the wonderful outfits I would eventually wear. After rooting in my luggage I noticed something a bit funny. The clothes I packed were mostly size 12 and 10. I am currently a small 8. I hadn't planned on losing so much weight so quickly. So now I have the not too unpleasant experience of having too many big clothes. Oh well, I could have ZERO suitcases and ZERO clothes right now so I am happy with what I have.
This brings me to the fact that my third suitcase is still MIA. The airline is still looking for it. Maybe I will get it in another 2 months. Who knows?! Until next time- Hasta luego!
