Erin, you are my official Writer Of Difficult Things To Say Whilst Not Wanting To Be Hurtful Yet Make My Point Clear.

and get rid of the CD with the nudie pictures.

Oooooooooh. They're on a cd with other things. Okay. I was honestly boggled that he'd pulled out actual pictures and then went through them. Much clearer now.

Yeah, sorry. I really was full of distress about it last night, and not as clear with my explanation as I'd like. And Microsoft's Picture Viewer (I think that's what he was using; I'm so Mac-centric that I don't actually know) shows thumbnails instead of just a blank folder icon with the name of the folder, so once the CD was in, there they were.

What I also didn't share last night because I was too focused on the THROW THOSE AWAY thing was that I *also* got to see pictures of the black-and-tan coonhound as a puppy, and he was lethally cute. Oh my god.

Once when we moved there was a box that hadn't been opened since a move previous. We both agreed to leave it on the curb.

When it comes to sexy pictures of exes I think the polite thing to do would be to send them to your ex.

Would you be upset if your lover had a picture of theirself and an ex fully clothed posing with a naked porn star?

There's a very strong possibility she'll be at the visitation Monday night. So I guess we could bring the CDs to the funeral home....

I'm not sure I would want to be handed naked pictures of myself at a funeral home. Even if they're on a disc... it would depend on what kind of relationship I had with the person who was giving them to me.

Yeah, that's why I was joking. I'm not actually that much of an inappropriate tacky bitch.

Related to ADD/ADHD: Old Spice Meets ADHD. Seriously, it is fucking HILARIOUS.

Sometimes my irony detector is faulty. Sorry. And now I've misused irony. gads.

I maintain there's a time limit on how long random objects retain their discrete object-hood when resting on a horizontal surface. That limit's expiration results in the object becoming part of the horizontal surface and no longer visible as a separate object.

That is probably the truest thing I have ever read

Like that time I overlooked the porno mag on the toilet tank when I cleaned up before my dad came over.

This is where I pimp for writing cred references for freelance work....

(Only kinda joking...)

I am very guilty of objects blending with surface they are on. I know where to look for said object, but it might be several layers deep. Since my move to TX, I am a lot better. Mom is 100x worse than me. When I was at my worst.

When in purge mode, I follow the maxim "when in doubt, throw it out"! Trying to teach mom that.

My father has a system. It involves shifting of piles. If he hasn't used it in awhile, it goes to the attic. If it's been in the attic for awhile, it goes to the curb. I can't recall if the period is one year or two. Or maybe one year to the actic, two years in the attic, then to the curb. Either way, a plan.

Books I save. It took a lot of pondering to chuck the magazines. Moving helps. Is it worth $1/lb? No?chuck it.
