Born Under a Bad Seam
So. I would suggest that one not seam up sweaters when watching the Comedy Central line up. Apparently Laughter is very bad for sweaters on the verge.
That's my foot, contemplating kicking Rib 'N Lace's ass.
Also I must ask. Why am I abandoning socks right at the heel flap? It used to be my favorite part. Little heel flaps, I am sorry I have been neglecting you. Maybe I will get my knitting mojo back soon and we can get down to business.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness
Notice the astonishingly clean carpet? Dumb luck The fates smiled upon me. We had a fabulous, yet sadly duplicate wedding gift taking up space. So I suggested (as it would absorb nearly half the cost of the Dyson) that we exchange for the worlds coolest vacuum (Did I just utter that a cleaning implement was cool?). I also threw in cleaning the toilet myself to up the ante.
But really, I think it was the thought of topless vacuuming that did him in.
The Dyson Story
Husband: I thought you said you'd do topless vacuuming if we got the Dyson?
Me: I did. You left to go to work while I was vacuuming, Remember?
***Contemplative Silence***
Husband: You did not!
Ok Firstly this is a masculine looking machine. It is essentially a turbine on wheels. Dudes like that.
My Dude liked it so much he took the vacuum away from me and vacuumed an entire room.
We were thrilled yet disgusted with the gunk sucked up into the wonder vacuum. Secondly if you are a spinner of pet hair, this vacuum is for you. I swear on a stack of knitting books that it picked up at least 2 pounds of dog hair. The down side being the hair is covered in dirt. I ask you where in the hell did the dirt come from?
In other news, I went out for a grueling half mile run with some lab mates. They not only didn't laugh at my walking (running outside is HARD) but they agreed to go for runs regularly. The best part was when I challenged them to run up a long flight of stairs and petered out halfway through. Rock on!
