Teppy, insent.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
My husband wants me to haul everything back inside. Hell, no. Not by myself.

Oh, also? The refrigerator repairman is coming at some point between 1 and 5. I shoulda stood in bed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh hell no. I'd put a "Curb alert" out anywhere that is free to list, and hope for the best. You can bring it back in later, if need be.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
IME, the people of Freecycle will take anything and everything, quickly.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm officially calling it. Dana gets a do-over on today.

I posted to Freecycle, so fingers crossed.

I say stick a sign on it that says "Free Packing Material" and hope for a scavenger.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My husband wants me to haul everything back inside. Hell, no. Not by myself.
Can you put all that stuff out for the trash? While I make serious efforts to recycle/reuse, at some point, getting the shit out of the house is worth more to my peace of mind and quality of life.
