I have to pack.

I am moving tomorrow. I have yet to pack. Therefore, I have to pack. I haven’t started packing yet. I have to pack. I’m runningoutoftime. But there is so much television and internet and music and reading upstairs, and all my stuff is downstairs. I have to pack. I can’t pack. I haven’t even made a packing playlist yet. I’m not going to pack.
