My mom just got a new bed after selling the twin beds and mattresses my folks had SINCE THEY WERE MARRIED. 52 years. And they never liked the twin beds--my Grandmother gave them the bedroom set (which was incredibly expensive) as a wedding present and they felt obliged to keep them. New mattresses had been suggested many times, but it is impossible to get her to spend money on herself. One of my brothers finally gave her the new bed. Which, I may add, she loves.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Too many of my lj friends are talking about eating ice cream. And now I want some.
Why do ice cream places NOT deliver?

Hello!
We offer Genuine! products for mans directly from Pfizer.
Just go to: http:// www. provisionalballot.info
Prices without tax/vat. Worldwide shipping (free)!
Product aside, why would anyone want to do business with any company that has to disguise itself so much go get around filters and net-nannies?!
That said, "Genuine! products for mans" makes me laugh.

This is totally an untapped market idea! You could make millions!
Oh, no wait. They do have ice cream delivery. It's called Schwan's.
I am no help, because I have ice cream. I just went and got it for the SO, because, poor boy, he is sick. But I have no excuse for the ice cream I got for myself. (Ben & Jerry's Black & Tan). They didn't have the Stephen Colbert variety. I was v. v. disappointed.
hey didn't have the Stephen Colbert variety. I was v. v. disappointed.
I looked for some of this at the store today, but I had no luck, either. I did end up with Ben & Jerry's cookie dough cones, though. I've never had them, but they look tasty. I figured I deserved ice cream due to extreme illness.
I went in to clear under and around my bed because of tomorrow's delivery and woke up an hour and a half later.
oops.
I know we've had this discussion in here before, but I forget what the consensus was-- should I tip the nice people who bring my bed tomorrow?
If they are nice, I'd tip them. If they are jerks, don't. I tipped the guys that delivered and set up Bobby's bed. They were nice.
