Why Its Taken Me Over Four Months to Build My Bed:
(1) I decided to do my dresser first. Can sleep on floor, can't keep clothes there. But since I finished the dresser I do keep clothes there...on the floor. And I sleep there. I fear gravity. Minus 1.5 months.
(2) Big fight with parents. Refuse to go over to house, even to work on bed. Minus 1 month.
(3) Crabfest. Lots of prep, food, cleanup. No time for sleep, less time for bed. Minus 3 weeks.
(4) Death Cold for Sniffles. Fear mono. Maybe typhoid. Maybe halatosis. Sitting up becomes Olympic sport. Minus 2 weeks.
(5) Fall Sweeps. I had to watch Lost Gilmore Girls study Grey's Anatomy. No TiVo at DDH. (You judge me for this, but remember, this is why I haven't finished building my bed. You build a bed too, then come judge me. Sinner.) Minus 2 weeks.
(6) This part is unexcusable. I was lazy for this week. I was probably eating whatever was already made and moving as little as possible. I'll call it my "Act like an elephant seal" week.
So that's my excuse, Professor. I worked on it today and can now build the two sides, which is huge. My goal is to refurbish my dresser, build my bed, move two times and write a short novel in a year. So far the only things left are to finish the bed and the book. It could happen.
I no longer have internet at the DDH (it's coming again soon I promise) so I have to travel to write this so I apologize for the lapses in posts. I'm not lazy...well yes, yes in fact I am.
My nephew was born today. My sister and brother-in-law clearly hate the child, for they named him Lucious Orrin. I shall always call him Luke. Luke is cute; he's 8lbs, 6 oz. Mom and baby are fine. In fact, she called me 45 minutes later to find out what I was doing for Thanksgiving and didn't even dwell on the fact that she'd just been in labor for seven hours. Like ya do.
Off to Syracuse this weekend for a Taps Week Reunion--first official one in way too long. Dylan is trying to figure out a way that Armagheddon could happen this weekend. It's a long story.
Tomorrow I'm scouting a new cave with Dave and Shelby. I'm pumped.
That's it from over here. And I went to the National Zoo last week. I love that zoo.

I was like, I have referenced Armagheddon before and Dylan totally getting lucky if it happens! (July 4, 2005 - yes, I actually went back and checked) And I ponder the irony...in what ways is the most peaceful, respectful, moral man I know, Dylan, thinking to destroy the universe in hopes of getting some lovin' from 3 girls? (yes, it's a long story) Sounds like a good list/blog post after Taps Reunion this weekend!
