Tonight, my kickoff to spring cleaning was throwing away a 95%-empty bottle of body lotion. As Jenn and Kate so kindly pointed out, I have about 10 bottles of lotion sitting in my bedroom alone (this is not counting the 3 or 4 I have stowed in the bathroom). Keep in mind, I usually don't throw away a bottle of lotion unless it's bone-dry, but this seemed symbolic. Besides, the more mostly-empty bottles of lotion I pitch, the more bottles of new I can buy.

I guess a new season of spring calls for new lotion, so to speak. Hoo-ra.
