I'm not going anywhere that people would notice.
I don't know what it hit, I thought I had the sandal pushed far away.

I guess I need to go to old navy and buy a pair of dollar flip flops with the thing between the toe. I hate the thing between the toe, but I can wear it for an hour until the damn polish totally dries.



No way could I wear them for an hour. Don't they put your toes in the drier thingy?

Well, another day has passed and I didn't use algebra once.

Yeah, but it wasn't blowing much.


(should we take bets on how long before no1 post that?)


Just had an unsatisfying Burger King meal.
If I'm going for junk food, I want good junk food!
Burger was mushy, it was ready fast, must have been sitting around.
Fries aren't good enough to warrant the calories and fat. But there were 3 onion rings mixed in. Sloppy work on the part of the fry person, but I liked them.
Soda is good.



News of the day, a got a dog bed cushion in my crap and it fits nice in the crate.
So, something I can use, in the crap!


I also got a really nice, but a little heavy, messenger bag, that is really a diaper bag for guys.
It had a tiny little bag that clipped inside. I couldn't figure it out, until I realized it was a binky bag!
Son said he would take it. I guess you can put a water bottle in the insulated bottle bag part!
Got a game made out of a nice wooden box. Can't figure out why it needed such a nice box, but it can be played by one person, and I won the first time, so I'm keeping it!
Oddly you need a paper and pen to keep score, and that wasn't included. So they made a really fancy wooden box for a game that could be played with a cheap plastic thing and 2 dice, but they didn't spend the money on a pencil and pad of paper.

Game....numbers 1 to 9 are on a swivel in the box. You roll the 2 dice and put down the numbers you rolled, or any numbers that add up to them.
If you get all the #'s down before you roll a # you can't use, you win.

Plus this stuff
a wine bag

a Napoleon dynamite nano ipod skin

A monster puppet

An odd job from the james bond adventure goldfinger all plastic assembly kit for ages 8+ ...I have no clue what the hell it is, it will go right into the charity bag.

A space 1999 action figure Maya...she is ugly, I hope the human race doesn't depend on her to reproduce. Then again, I'm looking at the guy pictures...they can't be too fussy.
The human race is going to be ugly if these guys are all that are left
It does say space 1999 was the most spectacular space series ever.

A package of specialty papers for scrap booking

5 super magnets
Mary Engelbreit design, two # 8.....two # 9..... one letter U
well I guess if I turned them upside down, I have a 6 too.

2 lunch woot paper bags

2 pieces of tissue paper to protect it in the mail. No TX air. The box was smashed in one corner.


Don't think I got anything huge and broken in this box.



So, in the world of crap, it was a good box!

Just settling on one specific design... if I'm ever able to figure something out, so much thought will have been put into it, that I'm not afraid of regretting it later. I'm just not sure that I'll ever get to that point.

Very minimal worries about the pain.

I have similar issues with regretting it later. That and I worry about stretching. I can't think of any part of my body that I haven't already deformed to some extent. Still thinking of getting a small something next year to mark our ten year anniversary though. Orc and I have always wanted to do a relationship tattoo. Maybe something in Elvish.

hmmm. . . but Orc has had to cut his hair and generally tattoos are still frowned upon by many employers, so more likely something that can be covered or is very discrete. Although, your ears never stop growing, could this might lead to some form of distortion?

Anyone have any experience with ear tattooing?

Both my cats know their own name, and ignore me if I use the other cats name. :/ I think people who dislike cats have never been around a cat that was given a happy house. All my cats have always had tons of personality, very interactive and social.

When I was in Toronto we saw a Gothish looking woman (maybe early thirties) with tiger striped ears. No other visible tatoos.

edit: they might have been zebra stipes...kinda hard to tell.

That is what son is doing.
I told him to clean out his room and //gasp he is actually doing it.
Of course, most of his stuff is in the basement, but I'll take what I can get!

This house is not big enough to be dead storage for two adult kids.

Of course, he has been home for a year and he just started a few weeks ago!


Now he is getting self righteous when he sees the box of crap from woot, "that is what we are trying to get rid of"

I think son and I would get along. My room hasn't been "clean" to my parents' standards for the year I've been at home either. Lately I've been working on getting some things packed, and they've been thrilled that it's finally looking better lol.

Heh - my Woot crap will probably make the cut. most of it anyway. But I am getting rid of a lot of other stuff.

The apt is 2 bedroom, but not very big. I need to get rid of all kinds of stuff that I don't use anymore, or just needs to be thrown away. I'm a pack rat.

I'm actually having the trash co bring me a small garbage container next week. Next weekend will be "throw it in the dumpster" weekend!

um... I've been in this house for 10 years. At times I've thought that I wouldn't want to be in an apt again. But I rent, and want to try apt's again before deciding if I want to buy. And I TRULY hate yardwork.

I pretty much hate this house, it's old and needs a ton of work.

Honestly - for now it's just a means to get me out of this house. I'll stay in this apt for a year and then decide from there. I have actually been thinking about moving back to the city, but am staying b/c of niece.

You can hire out the yard work and get a inground sprinkler system. But it is a extra cost. Sort of like a tax.
Will only go up. It does make the house easier.

Everyone should do that at least once a year.

We haven't totally cleaned out the garage since our neighbors moved in.
Their son was going into kindergarten. He is a senior next year.
It think it is time!

Basement and attic...it has been even longer.

Yeah. And if I owned the house, and wasn't in a house built in the 50's that basically needs everything replaced, I might feel differently.

But I don't want to own a house, so I'm trying this for a year. *shrug* maybe I'll feel differently at the end of the lease.

Well, daughter freaked out when she graduated because she didn't have a job. By july she had one and moved.

She hasn't been back, except for the hospital stuff.
So, with college, she has been gone for 8 years.

Her room was like she lives here. Closet and draws full.

She has been trying every time she comes home. Draws are good now, a good chunk of closet is cleared. She is only home for a few days a year. She needs a week of work to be done. At 3 hours a visit, I'm guessing she will be done in 10 years.

Son has to clear stuff out.
If he does this degree, it is 5 years. He won't be back.

The rooms will always be theirs, but it would be nice if they didnt have to live out of a suitcase, because there is no room for their stuff when they visit!

Most of the houses here were built in the 50s.
Even if you renovate, it needs work ever 10 years or so.

Time goes fast, so our brand new kitchen, with all the new electrical and plumbing, that we did ourselves...is almost 30 years old.
Now hubby has no desire to do the work himself.
At least we still really like one of the bathrooms we did.

Oh well, time for bed.
Good luck with your decluttering!
