Never Go Up Against A Bigger Guy Without A Weapon

So hubs is really good at pumping the neighbors for information and he managed to find out that apparently one neighbor stopped another neighbor from confronting yet another neighbor. Something like "Dude, do you have a weapon? Because otherwise you don't stand a chance." So true.

She showed up at neighbor's house Saturday, dropped off some branches. I think that's a signal for meet me at the Holiday Inn on Cedar.

Oh and now everyone's garages are kept closed. Could be the cold weather. Could be something else.

I Know I Am Uncool

Yeah, I'm crafty. I'm pretty sure that makes me uncool. But I never pretended otherwise.

My latest creation:



Someday I'll get better at taking pics of my craftiness.

A Man and His Garage

"I don't love you any more. I hit it with the neighbor guy and the whole neighborhood knows. I am moving out. But hey, let's watch TV in the garage together."


There's this weird phenomenon in this area where people set up "dens" in their garages. Old couch, a rug and a TV, usually the big one of the house. The garage is an extension of the house, cars belong in the driveway and we have sheds for all our other crap.

We are one of the few who actually park our cars in the garage. Religiously. I don't want to have to scrape snow or schlepp two kids out to the car in the rain. That's what garages are for. Or so I thought.

Quote of the Day

"Only a retard would go to that much effort just to cuddle!"


(In response to my previous position on the salami-hiding.)


They still all play cards together. Guy has no self-respect. He can't be long for this neighborhood either, I suspect.

The Plot Thickens...

Sooooo...... guess who's splitting up... moving out... hitting the road.

And just a few weeks ago one borrowed the other's mower. I don't think there's been any "hide the salami" (as my hubbie so delicately puts it) but he disagrees.

I'm sure lips will losen up more once evacuation is complete. More dirt then. =)

That's Some Talent!

Heard on the radio on the way to work yesterday:

"I like to smoke my own meat."

Yeah, I'm infantile enough that I laughed but it was a good start to the day.

Death By Amy

Whoever mentioned Amy Winehouse yesterday needs to die. Her crap permeated my already disturbing dreams last night.
