Bubblegum Diaries: Marshmallow & granite

Marshmallow & granite

Hurrah! Yay! w00t!

Our new mattresses will be delivered two days after we've moved into our new house!

Vegas will have his slab of granite and I will have my lovely marshmallow, we'll finally be on a King bed (two Twin XL's pushed together) and all that's missing is a platform or frame and we're all set!

It cost a mint but a good night's sleep is priceless :-)

I'm already sick of shopping: yesterday was for tools, a shop vac, phones, house supplies and the like. We still need a sooo much stuff, I don't know where to begin!

*insert a scream of sorts*

Hope my bro will lend us his chainsaw and sledgehammer...

Tomorrow is Vegas' birthday so I need to get busy making his ice cream cake (it's what he wants!) and there is still tons of packing to do, plus laundry and other ickies. Thankfully the bday gifts are wrapped and ready to go, all that's missing is mmeeeeeeeeeee!

Yep, 10am appointment tomorrow morning chez la hairdresser.

Tired of looking like an old skunk.

Any of you Canadians have good long-distance calling plans that are NOT with Bell? I'm looking at Primus but am open to other suggestions - thanks in advance for recommendations!

Kathryn said...: Awesome. Don't know how he could possibly sleep on granite, though. Ah well, to each his or her own, right?!

Sick of shopping?! Is it possible? Speaking of vacs . . . my other half broke my dyson this weekend. We need to get another one. *sigh*

You just reminded me . . . I need to get my highlights re-done. No time. Seriously. No time.

Happy B-day to Vegas.; June 16, 2009 1:28 PM

Technodoll said...: Roshan, the important thing is to be able to sleep well... might be time to change?

Kathryn, I have a strange husband LOL! He'd rather sleep on the floor than a bed that is too soft. How about you order a new Dyson via phone while you get your hair done? See? I'm a-fish-ant!

Busy Bee, thanks! Just need a bed to put the mattresses on now...

Prin, my new house phone is with Videotron so I gots to shop... and no Sealy, no waaaay!

Just messin'. You know, 'cause I asked all over the interwebs by accident. :D; June 16, 2009 9:51 PM
Technodoll said...: I'm going to get you a Sealy for crimmas. Nerrr!; June 16, 2009 9:56 PM
Tonya said...: dammit your posts always make me hungry. I came prepared this time. I'm eating a big ol plate of pasta and pesto. So there!; June 16, 2009 11:15 PM

Its Just Me - Daring to Dream said...: Love new cushy beds - congrats!! Glad you have a new hair appointment. Hope it goes well!; June 17, 2009 12:13 AM
Kathryn said...: Yes, there's a-fish-ant for us!! The vacuum is for the sweet other half to take care of since he broke it. :o) And, the hair? Who knows when I'll get to that.; June 17, 2009 9:09 AM
Rebecca Foster said...: I agree with you about the bed, very important. I splurged on my bed at home (and I miss it terribly) because really, on a good day, a 1/3 of your life is spent in bed. Like shoes, the comfort is worth the cost. Congrats on your new bed!; June 17, 2009 9:31 AM
Curly said...: My older sister always says she could sleep in a picket fence. I believe her.; June 17, 2009 9:42 AM
Technodoll said...: Surfergirl, you beat me to it this time! LOL

Princess B, Geminis are the best! and it's my dad's bday tomorrow, talk about cool eh? Let me know when you're in town, maybe we could meet??

C, if I can get rid of this migraine he will get his wishes, haha!!

Daring, yep hair went well although it's always better after a day or two. I look... "made up" right now, LOL

Kathryn, how do you break a Dyson??

Rebecca, yep a third of our lives are more or less spent in bed... it's worth it to invest in a good night's rest!; June 17, 2009 1:35 PM
Technodoll said...: Curly, I envy your sister. a LOT. i have always had trouble sleeping and it sucks!; June 17, 2009 1:35 PM
Kathryn said...: Dyson vs. bath rug - the other half arranged this fight.

Dyson lost.; June 17, 2009 4:24 PM

Property is theft. Nobody “owns” anything. When you die, it all stays here.

The planet is fine. The people are fucked.

The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse: You cannot post “Thou shalt not steal,” “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” and “Thou shalt not lie” in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment.

The only good thing ever to come out of religion was the music.
“When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?” This title offends all three major religions, and even vegetarians!

And now, in the interest of equal time, here is a message from the National Institute of Pancakes: It reads, and I quote, “Fuck waffles.”

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

Cloud nine gets all the publicity, but cloud eight actually is cheaper, less crowded, and has a better view.

I’m always relieved when someone is delivering a eulogy and I realize I’m listening to it.

Just think, right now as you read this, some guy somewhere is gettin’ ready to hang himself.

If all our national holidays were observed on Wednesdays, we could wind up with nine-day weekends.

Most people with low self-esteem have earned it.

Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.

“No comment” is a comment.

You can’t argue with a good blowjob.

So far, this is the oldest I’ve been.

worst pickup lines

Can I buy you a drink, or do you just want the money?

I may not be the best looking guy here, but I'm the only one talking to you.

I'd like to screw your brains out, but it appears that someone beat me to it.

If you were a new hamburger at McDonald's, you would be McGorgeous.

I wish you were a Pony Carousel outside Walmart, so I could ride you all day long for a quarter.

Excuse me, do you have your phone number, I've seem to have lost mine.

I can't find my puppy, can you help me find him? I think he went into this cheap motel room.

The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

OK, so what's the speed of dark?

Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

Shin: a device for finding furniture in the dark.

Many people quit looking for work when they find a job.

Join the Army, meet interesting people, kill them.

If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?

Boycott shampoo! Demand the REAL poo!

Who is General Failure and why is he reading my hard disk?

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.

The colder the X-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it.

The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7th of your life.

A fool and his money are soon partying.

Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.

not the sharpest bulb in the closet?

A few peas short of a casserole.

An experiment in Artificial Stupidity.

An intellect rivalled only by garden tools.

As much use as a hedgehog in a condom factory.

As much use as a one-legged man at an ass-kicking contest.

As useful as a wooden frying pan.

As useful as tits on a bull.

Dumb as a stump.

He's got a mind like a steel sieve.

His cheese has slipped off his cracker.

His porch light ain't on.

If brains were dynamite, he wouldn't have enough to blow his nose.

Like a pair of children’s scissors, bright and colorful, but not too sharp.

Million dollar body and a 2 dollar engine.

Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse.
