I did get all crafty about it and bought wood-grain contact paper to cover the boxes.
See that's something that I wouldn't think of. I'd just throw a tablecloth over 'em and be done with it. I'm realllly lazy.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

to make room for the cat hair.
Cat hair is like sand in a jar of rocks, it always finds a way to fit so you coulda kept the boxes!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Regrettably, most of the boy tiaras the boy Buffistas got looked kinda like more-elaborate fast food or Christmas cracker crowns. If we do another tiara exchange, we should get all the boys something more like this.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Good point, Dawn, but my way I get to get MORE boxes.

In the gothy craft book Paint It Black, the author endorses just that thing. A black tablecloth, yes, or black fabric, but still. It works just fine.

OK, to me this just sounds like somebody wanted to get their hands on the copper.
One of the best known buildings downtown is undergoing an extensive make-over and it only has about six more months to go. The trick for construction crews was to replace the exterior of the Zions Bank Tower while hundreds of people continue working inside.
We are talking about the old Kennecott Copper building on South Temple and Main Street, the most prominent intersection downtown. The old copper cladding is being removed and recycled and replaced with newer granite and limestone.
That 600,000 pounds of copper, which made the building really stand out downtown. Now it's going to blend in with everything else, but, hey, it's "newer!" It's one thing to steal the copper pipes and wires from an empty house, but stripping high rises?

When I first moved in...well, I had a microwave, stereo, lamp and trash can. And a bunch of milkcrates. Got a loveseat and bed within a week though!
The milkcrates now live in the closet. Two of them are still filled with files from my college education. I just haven't bothered to toss them. After 8 years.
I wonder how boring the gig is to the extras in Alias who just have to walk back and forth looking interested in paperwork in the blurry background in office scenes.
