My mom kept bugging me to "come and pick up my stuff" for a few years...

...after I graduated from VT. (was graduated?)

The problem was I was living hundreds or thousands of miles away (FL), and could only take so much stuff when I drove home. I eventually got everything I wanted after a few years.

The only thing I lost that I wanted to keep was my old Pioneer stereo equipment...especially the receiver. It wasn't fancy or valuable, but just a nice solid unit. Really loved the look of the equipment back in the day... I think someone picked it up during a yard sale.
