Starting now on, packing LIGHT

So I went last weekend for Mount Union's homecoming : ) It was lots of fun, but as usual, I packed a lot of stuff. I had my largest suit case, my lap top, my shoe bag, some necessary bags from shopping at Crocker Park, and a few other things. I pulled into my building and parked on the top level of the parking garage. This usually isnt a problem because I can take the elevator to my floor. I decide being late I want to take EVERYTHING in one trip. So I figure this out. Put the coat on, pull the suit case and put 4 bags in one arm, 5 in the other. You would think I had just gotten back from a month in Europe, not a weekend in Alliance. I could hardly get through the door with so many bags on both sides of me while pulling a 75 pound suit case. I finally get to the elevator (which felt like FOREVER) when I realize its not working that evening. Of course its not. From there I had two options, to put some stuff back in my car or to carry all this stuff down three flights of stairs to get to the regular elevators. I was debating leaving some stuff in the stair case and come back for it but because of my hysteric fear of mice and other rodents I decided against it. Oh, my, gosh, I pray to God my building doesn't watch the videos of the staircases, because you should have seen me trying to get down three flights of stairs with all these bags. At one point I missed a step and landed in front of the door with half my bags under me and half on top of me. By the time I got to my apt. I was so irritated I left my bags on the floor and I have yet to do anything with them a week later, for now on I am packing light or waiting to see if the elevator works before I make that mistake again!
