and then my closet exploded

I'm sure it will not come as a surprise to anyone when I say, this has happened before. 

sometime back when I was in High School, we heard this loud crashing sound come from upstairs...and discovered that the bar in my closet had broken in half, and all the clothes were in a nice big pile.

fast forward, oh about 15 years later, to my new apartment...and this is what I found when I came home the other day:

of course this time I had put some heavy boxes up on the shelf...so lesson learned...boxes go on the floor :)
