Question About My Lawn
The lawn guys are currently in the back yard, driving through the wet grass dragging something that looks like a long, wide wheel covered in huge spikes. It’s leaving holes in the ground and pulling out spikes of dirt that look like piles of poop lying around. What are they doing? I’m so curious. But not curious enough to go out and ask them.
World’s Longest Fingernails
What in the hell is wrong with people? How does she wipe her ass?
Cage Fighting? What?
This upcoming storyline from The OC is so ridiculous that I thought it was a joke. This can either launch The OC into brilliance a la Kimberly Shaw’s Melrose Place, or bury the show for good. My money’s on the latter. [via]

Stupid Early Delivery Guy
So our sofas were to be delivered today between noon and 3:00pm. The geekboy arranged to work at home this afternoon so he can be here to help move the old sofas into the garage and inspect the new ones for any damage. Well, the delivery guy just called and said they’re running way early and are 15 minutes from our house, so they’re coming now. PANIC! I just locked LL in our bedroom, moved some things out of the pit, and cleared room around the front door (we have a table in our entryway that makes it narrow). But I can’t move these sofas on my own! I only have $40 in my wallet, so I’m hoping that I can play the weak female card and offer them each $20 to move our old stuff into the garage. If they won’t, I’ll just have them deliver the new stuff into the garage. Oh shit, they’re here.
EDITED TO ADD PHOTOS:
Here is the pit before. Here it is now. The ottoman will be replaced soon enough with a new one that isn’t all ratty (hence the blanket). It will be the same color as the red pillows, I think. I just noticed that the couches are taller than the older ones, and our speaker stands are no longer high enough and our surround sound will now broadcast into the back of the couch. Sigh. More money to spend, because you know it will drive me crazy.
Screech Sex Tape
A few months ago when Dustin Diamond tried to shake us all down to pay for his house, I suggested he just make a sex tape like everybody else. Apparently he heard me, and Jesus wept. In related news, BWE has put together a hilarious list of other Screech-related sex acts.
Happy Birthday, Geekboy
Today is the geekboy’s birthday! Hooray! Yesterday was Yeti’s birthday as well. Happy birthday, guys!
Tonight the birthday boy will get his favorite homemade dinner of linguine and clams, followed up with chocolate cake. Mmmm. I’m drooling just thinking about it. Hopefully it will all turn out delicious. Today is also exciting for another reason – our new couches are set to be delivered this afternoon. Can’t wait. Last night I had a nightmare that Long Legs escaped while the guys were bringing in the new couches. I’ll be locking him up today.
