Always Anti-fascist!

That makes me sad. He used to be kind of a nummy treat. Now looking at his photo is risking a contact high. (And not really cause he got older...I have a lot of boomer oost. But the puffy...yikes.)

So, not puffy and alcoholic?

Well, I wasn't standing right next to him, but from about 20 feet away, he didn't look puffy and hungover at all. Cute and sheepishly wearing a Santa hat, yes.

I mean, unless that wasn't Vince, and I hallucinated the extras and the camera, and the other six dudes in Santa Claus outfits.

Did you spend three hours talking about sexual harrassment with HR?

What is even happening?

Actually, scratch that. Let's start with whoever made my current vacuum. There doesn't seem to be a way to remove the plastic ends, so that you get a straight tube and, say, unclog the tube with a broomstick. Suggestions?

I hate my vacuum too, megan. It's 12 years old and not that good, but will not die. It's a Hoover Legacy (upright) and it mocks me.

People here (possibly Cass and/or ita) had some miracle vacuum they loved.

What's a good vacuum? At this stage, I think I'd rather not have an upright, because it makes doing the stairs difficult, and for the now, the stairs are still carpeted. But I wouldn't eschew an upright if it was a great vacuum.

This was my hell last Tuesday.

I am also in desperate need of a new vacuum. My vacuum is a vintage 1970 Sears Kenmore. It is older than me. It kinda works, but I am dying for something that really works. And preferably isn't $400.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

What's a good vacuum?

I love my Eureka Boss. It's like the poor woman's Dyson, and comes with a lot of extenders/brushes/thingamajigs.

Oh, good. Because I didn't get any coffee this morning, and I wondered if I was still dreaming.

Did you spend three hours talking about sexual harrassment with HR?

No. I have several giant packets with insurance and benefits information. It took almost three hours for us to walk through the corporate presentation. AUGH.

juliana, the people who owned this house before left their Eureka Boss here (well, the lady died, and her kids left it). I used it upstairs, but then always forgot the name of it, to buy new bags. I don't have all the attachments, but it's pretty good, huh? Maybe I'll just get new bags and give it another go. It's very lightweight.

Dyson! I think maybe Dyson was the miracle vac Buffistas were loving on.
