House That Might Be Worth Considering

Pros:
The backyard backs up to OLQH parking lot. That means plenty of room to rollerblade, ride bikes, etc. OLQH = Our Lady Queen of Heaven. Some of you know that Tom is a pretty good Catholic. I’m only an okayish one. Both of us disagree with a lot of traditional Catholic schtuff, but we do [...]
Those home improvement shows

You know what’s irritating about those home improvement shows (other than, oh, everything)? The thousand-dollar table saws. You are not designing anything “on a dime” if you have multiple thousand-dollar table saws.

So, my new gyno and I were having that awkward small-talk that you have when he’s doing his work and you’re staring at the ceiling while wearing the paper gown and sheet. This is always worse when your gyno is approximately your age and attractive, which this guy was. It’s always easier if they’re an [...]

I have a friend who is househunting for the first time, and we’re currently househunting. We’ve bought and sold two houses prior to this, so I have my househunting criteria down to a few mental lists. These lists will probably be pretty boring to read.

Tom and I fight about stupid, stupid things, and we do it over and over again. We both have bad memories and so each fight is like a brand new one: even though we know we’ve had it before, we can’t remember any of the details so we have to have the fight again.

Posted by: tiffanypinkdog on: January 3, 2009
The handle of my hairbrush glows in the dark. I know this because I see its ghostly glow in the bathroom whenever I go in there in the middle of the night. Why does it glow? It’s not a hairbrush marketed to kids, and even if it was, this feature wasn’t mentioned on the package [...]
