You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Son of a bitch. We called Amvets and asked them if they would take all of these fucking moving supplies, paper and boxes. They said yes. I hauled it all out to the curb this morning at 7AM. The delivery driver said no.

SOMEONE TAKE THESE THINGS AWAY.

Because books.

Thank you for the Brendon Urie, Amy! I just have a big grin on my face (even though I worry about Spencer :( )

Me, too!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

SOMEONE TAKE THESE THINGS AWAY.

The craigslist free section/freecycle won't do it for you?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There is a woman on this episode of Family Feud

Steve Harvey is fantastic as the host.

I have done 2 of my 5 tasks (with a bonus one, so I feel like that counts for 3): washed dishes, cleaned out t-shirt drawer and re-folded/organized them the UFYH way, and (bonus chore) cleaned out my underwear/nightie drawer.

I listened to 2 episodes of WTNV (Poetry Week and A Memory of Europe) while I went through my dresser drawers, so I'm slowly catching up.

Still to do: dust, walk Kato (but good lord, it's 44 degrees here), sort through piles of crap on table from hell.

Dana,

I used Taskrabbit to get someone to haul away some crap for me.

We've tried Craigslist. I can look at Freecycle.

What I need is magic.

Yeah, my husband is inherently opposed to paying someone.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Or a local friend who's planning to move. What a hassle.

I have: filed for unemployment (again, waited too long so I won't get anything for October), walked the dogs, showered, compiled & distributed the family holiday shopping assignments, and started a low-key argument among my siblings about where to do Christmas.

I don't want to engage in that conversation, I just want someone to tell me where we're going.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

All of my stuff was going to the country dump. So I figure I should pay someone for their time and gas.
