I have a cardboard magazine box for New Yorkers, and when it is full, the older half are ruthlessly taken to the reading room at work.
'Why We Fight'
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Plus we collect old New Yorkers like hoarders.
I'm imagining you have bon bon in a cage in your living room.
I keep everything in the mailbox until my mail person leaves me a note that he will stop delivering mail. Then I chuck it all in the garbage after fishing out my threads magazine and any personal mail.
I'm so shaky right now. Still have a fever (although it's gone down to 100.2), and am still running to the bathroom every 60-90 minutes, and I've only had a few sips of water so far today. Not interested in actual food.
Oh, man, Kathy. Poor you! Do you have anything like Gatorade around? Or broth?
I solved my problem of collecting things on my dining table by moving it to the guest room and making it my craft table. Still gets piled, but not with paperwork.
I'm imagining you have bon bon in a cage in your living room.
Oh, thank heaven, someone else went there too.
Poor Kathy, I hope you are at home, or are you still at work?
I'm imagining you have bon bon in a cage in your living room.
heh. But no, I think I'm a good decade older than she. We've got Jerry Stiller out in the garage somewhere.
I ended up not going into work at all, thank God. Just running from my bedroom or living room to the bathroom is a long enough trip, the way I'm feeling.
I think I do have some broth, or maybe some Campbells' chicken soup I can heat up a little later. I'm just not in the mood right now.
DJ, I am boggled that you have to use your marriage license as proof of identity. Did you have to show proof of ID when you applied for the license? We didn't (in MA) -- just had to swear that we were not related to each other. I think we probably did have to put down our SSNs, but at no point did we have to produce any form of ID. Which also seems weird, right? We could have said we were anyone! Or used someone else's SSN.
For those of you that recycle junk mail right away -- what do you do about envelopes with the plastic windows? I always thought those couldn't be recycled. Sometimes I go through and tear out the plastic windows and toss them separately, but... usually I am too lazy. Can I really just recycle the whole thing without tearing out the plastic?
