I BELIEVE THERE'S A FINE LINE BETWEEN HOARDER AND PREPPER
DUST AND COBWEBS MAY BE THAT LINE

TOADY'S LIFESKILL- BEING NICE TO CRAZY EVANGELICAL PROTESTANT LADY AT DAD'S FUNERAL. ALMOST GOT INTO A BIG DEBATE ABOUT CHURCH HISTORY AND THEOLOGY CUZ SHE OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT. I MANAGED TO HOLD BACK, THOUGH. [MENTION=38380]Suzanimal[/MENTION] WOULD'VE BEEN PROUD OF HOW CLASSY I WAS.

VERY CLASSY, HB34.
IT'S NOT COOL TO GET INTO A POLITICAL DEBATE WITH A WOMAN AT HER FATHER'S FUNERAL.

IT'S NOT HER FATHER. IT WAS MY FATHER. SHE'S JUST A WIFE OF A FRIEND OF DAD'S.

LIFE SKILL
CLEANING OUT THE GARAGE.
OUR GARAGE HAS BECOME A DUMPING GROUND WHERE NOTHING GETS PUT AWAY SO I TOLD MR ANIMAL WE HAD TO GET IT CLEANED UP. THAT MAN HAD THE NERVE TO TELL ME IT WAS MY MESS.
I ADMIT THE BIG PILE WAS MINE BUT THAT WAS DONATION AND WHEN HE TOLD ME TO GO CLEAN UP MY "SHIT" AND THEN HE WOULD CLEAN UP HIS IMAGINE HOW SURPRISED HE WAS WHEN I CAME BACK 5 MINUTES LATER AND TOLD HIM I WAS DONE. I JUST HAD TO LOAD IT IN THE VAN. ANYWAY, I HELPED HIM PUT AWAY HIS "SHIT" EVEN THOUGH HE WAS RUDE TO ME. THE WHOLE TIME WE WERE WORKING, I REMINDED HIM OF WHAT A GOOD PERSON I AM. I WAS JUST TEASING HIM, BTW. HE WAS HAVING FUN REMINDING ME OF ALL THE MEAN SHIT I DO. IT MOSTLY GOT DONE. WE STILL HAVE A FEW THINGS TO DEAL WITH. I HAVE SOME STUFF THAT'S TOO NICE FOR DONATION SO I'M GOING TO TRY TO GIVE IT AWAY - A NICE WAGON, AN ELLIPTICAL (I USE THE ONE AT THE GYM), SOME NICE CERAMIC CANISTERS, CASSEROLE DISHES:o, EXTRA CAMPING GEAR (IF NO ONE WANTS THAT, I'LL GIVE IT TO THE BOY SCOUT TROOP).

SOUNDS LIKE A BETTER PATH TO A CLEAN GARAGE THAN MY "THROW IT IN THE GARAGE BUT DON'T BLOCK THE DOGGY DOOR" RULE.:o

FRIDAY NIGHT GOING DOWN THE SHITTER
MY USUAL ROUTINE IS TO GET A GLASS OF VINO AND RELAX TO THE SOOTHING SOUND OF JEFF DEIST INTERVIEWING SOMEONE. IT'S USUALLY POSTED AROUND 5:30PM BUT IT'S 6:28 AND HE'S STILL NOT UP. LAST WEEK WAS AN OLD HOPPE TALK AND THIS WEEK, IT'S LOOKING LIKE I'M NOT GETTING ANY.

AS A GENERAL RULE, ELIPTICALS AND CARDIO MACHINES ARE A WASTE OF MONEY. MOST MACHINES ARE, TOO. UNLESS THEY'RE REALLY SPECIAL, IT'S WAY EASIER TO JUST GET A CLUB MEMBERSHIP SOMEWHERE AND LET THEM MAINTAIN THE EQUIPMENT. FOR HOME USE, KEEP IT SIMPLE WITH FREE WEIGHTS, A BENCH, AND A SQUAT RACK, IMHO.

I DIDN'T CARE FOR GOING TO THE GYM SO I LIKED HAVING THE ELLIPTICAL. I ONLY EVER USED IT WHEN THE WEATHER DIDN'T PERMIT GETTING OUTSIDE. SINCE THE MEATHEADS HAVE ACCEPTED ME AS ONE OF THEIR OWN, I DON'T MIND THE GYM SO MUCH.

I'M TAKING THE BOYS TO THE GROCERY STORE TONIGHT TO SHOP FOR THEIR FOOD NEXT WEEK. MR ANIMAL AND I ARE GOING TO NASHVILLE FOR THREE DAYS AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FEND FOR THEMSELVES. I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS. I'VE NEVER LEFT THEM FOR MORE THAN ONE NIGHT BUT I GUESS IT'S TIME THEY TOOK SOME RESPONSIBILITY. I'VE MADE UP A LIST OF CHORES THEY HAVE TO GET DONE BEFORE WE GET BACK SO THAT OUGHT TO KEEP 'EM BUSY AND MOSTLY OUT OF TROUBLE.
I ALSO HAVE TO STOP BY THE TATTOO PARLOR (THEY HAVE MY FAVORITE DUMPSTER:o I LOVE A GOOD DUMPSTER.). MR ANIMAL CALLED TO TELL ME THEY HAD A CABINET OUT THERE. HE'S NOT INTO DUMPSTER DIVING BUT HE FINDS IT AMUSING THAT I GET SO EXCITED OVER THEM. HE KNOWS THAT'S MY FAVORITE DUMPSTER, TOO. SUMMER BEFORE LAST I FOUND A NICE PATIO CHAIR OUT THERE. IT NEEDED A NEW CUSHION BUT I FOUND ONE TO FIT IT AT ALDI'S FOR 6.00 SO THAT CHAIR ONLY COST ME 6.00. IT'S A METAL SWIVEL CHAIR WITH ARMS - THOSE THINGS ARE NEVER LESS THAN 50.00. THEY ALSO THROW AWAY A LOT OF WOOD. I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF WOOD PROJECTS THEY'RE DOING IN THERE BUT I'VE GRABBED 1/2 SHEETS OF PLYWOOD FROM THEM. BTW, I ASK PERMISSION. I WOULD NEVER DUMPSTER DIVE WITHOUT IT. THEY'VE EVEN COME OUT AND HELPED ME LOAD STUFF WHEN THEY'RE NOT BUSY. NICE GUYS.
