Announcement: This morning Hec, with no prompting from me AT ALL, just up and totally reorganized and cleaned the entire living room, kitchen, and bits of the bedroom, and also went through the entire fridge and removed all its either decaying or reanimated inhabitants. And by removed, I mean not just "dumped in the kitchen trash can," but "took all the way out to the building trash can safely two floors away where the stench cannot reach us." Now he and Emmett are off wandering downtown, and I have the whole (clean! so clean!) apartment to myself for at least another hour.

Analysis: Best. Motherfucking. Husband. In. The. History. Of. Anything. EVAR.

JZ, how very, very nice! Lucky you!

Oh, JZ, do you have a sec to jump on IM? If not, no biggy...I'll just e-mail you.

I just had a lovely dinner with my friend, J. Now I'm all full and sleepy. I think I may go to bed soon.

Trapped in the Closet Under the Stairs - yes, it's a Harry Potter parody of the... brilliant? psychotic?... R. Kelly music videos.

Great, JZ, but a bit UnHecly, am I right? Not being a good husband, but throwing stuff out? Hec's trying to avoid a deadline or he's got something on his conscience.(/Pembleton)

Hec's trying to avoid a deadline or he's got something on his conscience.

More like he's looking for the remote and once he got started lifting up piles of stuff he went into spring cleaning mode by accident.

I don't get the urge often, but when I do, I tend to do a whole top to bottom clean and re-org.

Go, Hec! You get many good husband points for that.

There must be something in the air today, because I got a good amount of cleaning and reorganizing done today too. Dave was very impressed when he showed up.

Oh, yeah, while I was channelling God's detective, I read the remote story. Still makes the chain-yanking between us like 35-620 or something. Too bad I'm not Frank. He could find that remote. "What if it's the next one? Don't you know anything?"

Just talked to my little brother (who's not so little...but he'll always be my little brother). Apparently, he read an excerpt from this book: [link] in a teaching magazine he gets, and it really resonated with him. So, he purchased it for himself, my other brother and me. That's a chunk of money, so I hope it's good. It looks quite interesting, though. I'm looking forward to getting it.

I did clear a bunch of stuff off my PC, though. So I'm doing my bit for the neat meme too. I kept flyers for shit I never went to, years of letters... argh. I'm not writing...maybe *my* conscience is feeling a little smudged.

neat meme

I sold a car. Does that count? It wasn't actually in the house, but still.
