Things I Have Purchased So Far For College Boy’s Dorm Room, The List:

Throwback to July 15, 2015

1. Extra-long mattress pad to cover the vinyl mattress.

2. Extra-long fitted sheets to keep him comfortable.

3. A super-cheap iron that he may just use once a semester.

4. A super-cheap, small, foldable ironing board that he may just use once a semester.

5. Two sets of gray towels that he had better wash more than just once a semester.

6. A jug of laundry detergent to get him started.

7. Over the counter medications so he can feel better when small maladies strike.

8. Extra boxes of contact lenses so he can clearly see the texts I will be sending him.

9. New eyeglasses in case those contacts aren’t doing the job.

10. A box of condoms, but those are for his roommate to use, just in case.

11. Re-sealable plastic containers to keep snacks in, because I vividly remember one dorm experience with cockroaches.

12. A box of thank-you notes and a page of stamps, because I expect him to be a gentleman even when away from home.
