Hey, what else you gonna do with a 5-day weekend? Ya know how you save the box for any new appliances or electronics, in case you have to send it back for warranty service? Okay, we had 17 years worth of that shit up there. I'm probably not gonna get my Betamax serviced in the near future. And why, for the love of C'Thulu, was I saving the monitor for my Amiga 2000 when I threw the computer out years ago? And that cheap video switcher I bought in 1985 so I could edit VHS between two decks? Yeah, that's as worth keeping as an 8-track. And THAT's where my collection of baseball caps with sci fi logos ended up! With a mouse nest in it. Only half done so far, but I cleared a lot of room up there. To throw more crap into. Tomorrow I send Mary up there to go thru the piles of HER shit and see what we can sacrifice to the Great Green Truck.
I call bullshit. You aint gonna do it and neither am I. Oh I want to, but Im sure something will come up that will prevent the two of us from accomplishing what we want.
I figgered I'd better do it. The electrician trashed the place up there when he was tracing wires last weekend, and he's gonna have to do it again when we get him back for the rewiring he recommended. A little at a time, with frequent breaks, and frequently giving up to have a soda and watch a DVD. And I pulled a muscle, so I have to stop for a while.
The last time I had that problem, I (...excuse me, my wife) arranged a "yard sale". Both she and my sister made sure I wasn't home, to stop them from selling off broken and dead stuff that I could never part with by myself!
I have to call a penalty on this one. We all know too much about your private life, Volpone. :gayfight:
After breaking up all those old electronic equipment boxes that were up there, we have four trash bags full of styrofoam packing blocks to throw out! I hope it's not windy that day.
Yeah, some day I'm gonna have to get an evilbay account I guess. I just hate the thought of having to deal with other human beings.
