...things that survived this packing process are the things that jar me now. The first time I saw the snow globe collection after it was unpacked was Thanksgiving break. I went down the stairs to retrieve something for my mother. Turning a corner, I found myself presented with an elaborate configuration of plastic domes. My mother had unpacked them.
