Happy Birthday Deena!

Matt-- that bite sounds bad. Maybe you should call your Dr?

Ok- so I miised the garbage man (today) with most of my sofa and entertainment center that need to be removed. Should I try to arrange putting it out to the curb now, wait until next week's trash, or put in in our trash area? This presupposes I am going to have some one of moving this stuff, because I totally cannot do it myself. This is the part that sucks about being single and hermit like.

I am thinking of asking this kid at work to see if he has a friend and they could do it. I could pay them, but I do not know the going rate for sofa removal. They could definately also have some of my books, which this guy has been wanting, and I am in the mood for clearning out.

But does anyone know how much to pay for sofa removal?

Tom, bed bugs.

Happy Birthday, Deena!

Why does it have to be Monday?

I don't like Mondays.

Sophia, if it's just getting the sofa out of the house, I'd pay people you know like ten bucks each. It's only going to take a couple of minutes, right?

I was thinking 20 each because the my house is not near campus and it will be a bitch to remove because I am on the second floor, and there is a staircase turn as well as some real maneuvering to get it out my front door and out to the porch. Where there are more stairs. So maybe $15 each? THen I have to gear myself up to ask and figure out when the best time to do it would be. I have already thrown out the cushions, which is where the worst of the pee was.

Is there a window you can toss it out?

Don't put it out on the curb now, Sophia, unless you think it will get taken away. Some cities will ding you for leaving trash on the curb for too long.

If it's a student, I would ask him to do it in turn for 1st pick over you books and hey, some beer.

ION, I just found cat poo on the floor of the basement, AGAIN! This time it was about a foot away from a clean and empty litter box. I am not a happy camper.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) -- Last month was Illinois' coldest July since 1924.

Preliminary data gathered by researchers at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign shows the average temperature last month was 70.4 degrees. That's 5.3 degrees below normal.

Climatologist Jim Angel says the previous record, set 85 years ago, was 71.5 degrees.

Angel says most parts of the state haven't had any days with temperatures in the 90s. Usually there are at least five days that hot.

Weird.
