The Death of My Pig
So I had this piggy bank, I'm pretty sure Megan gave it to me, perhaps on a birthday. It's been painted several times. I decided it was time for piggy to get a new paint job.
So I picked out a nice green color from my collection of acrylic paints. But the paint dried darker than I thought. And I thought maybe I would leave parts of it pink. But I hated it. And decided it was time for the pig to die. I am all about purging everything I own right now. I'm getting rid of 10 pairs of pants, 7 pairs of shoes, and boxes of other stuff that I no longer want.
So I took a hammer to the pig, and as per Aaron's suggestion, I filmed the death. Now, I swear, SWEAR I put a $20 bill in the pig at one point. So imagine my disappointment when there is only $17.05 in this pig. It is all going in my travel account. I know it doesn't seem like much, but everything helps. I don't know what this thing was made of, but it was some kind of composite that made dust when it cracked. I'm thinking about sending it to a lab to get analyzed for asbestos (I can have that done for way cheap through my work).

I got the pig from a little boutique in Lake Oswego, I am not sure what the pig is made of I thought it was terracotta.
I do remember you saying that you had like 50 pairs of pants, so I'm thinking maybe ten is not so many, but hey, good start! :)
