GameTavern - Dear god, the mess.

..It was incredibly messy. In fact, the mess is still all over my floor.

For some reason I thought it was a good idea to put everyone of of my school books from years past and currently on the top shelf. This is 7 ft in the air, for reference. Below that held virtually every gaming magazine I have acquired over the years, along with handhelds, 30 GBA cases, 20 DS cases, etc. Below that shelf, I had random crap, including colognes and shaving creams I wasn't using at the moment.

So I got home tonight, Dairy Queen Blizzard in hand, worrying about it melting, and I saw my top shelf had collapsed in and was sitting on my gaming shelf, which had also collapsed and was sitting on a stack of old physics 11 notes.

Well, presumably.

I sat down figuring that I'll relax with my melting blizzard instead of handling it right away. I then noticed a faint sound, like a buzzing or a beeping. I put the blizzard down and looked at the lowest shelf that had been collapsed on - this can of shaving cream was crushed and had been sitting there, spewing out cream like nobody's business. I decided that that was going to be a mess later than sooner. I reached in for it, past all the colognes and paraphernalia, including pokemon figures. Before I reached in and grabbed the can, I saw Psyduck's pained expression. In ten minutes I would pretty much look the same, but I didn't know it.

So, the can of "fresh" scented nivea shaving cream was the support. I pulled it out unknowingly, and it all came down. All of it. It was a mix of throwing boxes out of the way with my shaving-creamed hand and holding the weight of thousands of scholars' thoughts in the other hand, which also had shaving cream.

10 minutes later, it was done. I can't see any carpet. Remember the "take a picture; it'll last longer" expression? I don't ever want this memory to last.

So, to conclude,

. And now I have a melted blizzard.
