It\u2019s that time of year again. That time when I look in the back of my once pristine <\/span>2017 Nissan Altima<\/span><\/a> from <\/span>Younger Nissan<\/span><\/a> and realize that all of those clothes I thought I lost have in fact just been in my back seat. Summer is now in full swing, so I can\u2019t stress enough how the stank has really just been marinating in here creating a foul smell I can\u2019t quite identify, but I know it is not great. All I know is that it\u2019s time for me to clean out this mess. <\/span><\/p>\n

How did all of these clothes get in here, you may be wondering. Well, It all started last fall (I know, I\u2019m not proud of how long my car has existed in this deplorable state). It started with one jacket, just in case it got cold. Fall is a tricky season. Sometimes it\u2019s perfect for a light sweater, sometimes it gets warm and you don\u2019t need the sweater, sometimes it\u2019s just crisp and you need that jacket. I was a girl scout. I like to be prepared, ok!? From there it turned into rain boots, because the weather is unpredictable. Then I needed a change of clothes for trudging through the snow to get to my building for work, so I\u2019d have a few things in the car. <\/span><\/p>\n

By the time spring came around I had a healthy collection of clothing that I could easily use as bedding if I chose to sleep in my car. I didn\u2019t, but I could if I wanted to. The pile of clothes kept growing. You know how spring is. That first few weeks of warm weather you\u2019re still not used to the warmth of the sun, how could you have forgotten, and then you inevitably have to shed a few layers that end up on the floor of the backseat. <\/span><\/p>\n

Now it\u2019s just out of hand. The clothes have fully taken over my car. I didn\u2019t even realize how spacious the Altima was until I had accumulated almost a year’s worth of clothing in here without a second thought. The thing that blows my mind is despite the insane quantity of clothing in here, THERE IS STILL ROOM! Like how?! It doesn\u2019t make sense. Space aside, \u00a0I won\u2019t let me friends get too close lest they decide that my packrat tendencies are repulsive. I NEVER offer to drive when we go anywhere because I don\u2019t have the kind of time it would require to clean out my car before they arrive. <\/span><\/p>\n

I do, however, have that kind of time today. So here we are, cleaning out my car. Once my car has returned to its former glory I have placed a bin in the trunk of my car so that when I have a bunch of clothes at the end of the week I can put the clothes in there and bring them back into my apartment and hopefully avoid this terribly embarrassing situation from happening again.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
