And now, I will beat him to a bloody pulp.

[LaraMN]

My husband let our landlady know today that we're planning on moving in a month.
He invited her over TOMORROW to look over the house and see what needs fixing, before we leave.
MY HOUSE IS TORN APART, RIGHT NOW!!!11!

I've been "going through" things, and you know what a place looks like when you start digging through all the rooms, but have yet to dispose of, organize, or pack up items.

I'm going to beat my head against the wall. I do not have time to get this place presentable. That would require a trip to Goodwill, the dump, and the recycling center. He thinks it's no big deal.

[Goblinmonger]

1. Just remember

we guys are fucking stupid. We mean to do well. We really do. We're just that dumb.

[LaraMN]

2. I told him that I am now freaking out.

He told me to "stop freaking out."
I told him that unless we have some sort of sedative in the house of which I am unaware, I will be unable to stop freaking out.
He told me to "just stop freaking out."

Right.

[matcom]

4. just stop freaking out

:rofl:

seriously. she isn't there to white glove the place. she is there to check for holes in walls, stains, etc...

she probably fully EXPECTS the place to be a mess. that is what HAPPENS when you move!

[LaraMN]

5. STOP being RATIONAL, you shithead!

I am tempted to post a picture of my den in its present state.
THEN you will understand....

[Goblinmonger]

7. I'm with Matcom on this one

It kinda seems like the "I have to clean up because the maid is coming and she can't see the house like this" mentality.

[matcom]

10. BINGO!

women are irrational :hide:

:D

[Goblinmonger]

17. I'd make a very funny comment

with the "D" word in it but it might not sit well with the mods given their previous discussion with me re: my old sig line.

[LaraMN]

13. That's it. I'm taking a picture of my den...

Just wait...

[LaraMN]

20. SEE!

This is just a corner of the den. There are ten other rooms and a horrendous mess in the basement.

[Goblinmonger]

21. I stand corrected

That room says "I am the worst person ever" :rofl:

Just to let you know, my wife would cut my balls off if I let in a firefighter while there was a fire if our house looked like that.

[LaraMN]

22. Today was "tear apart the den" day,

so admittedly, the other rooms don't look that bad, but they ALL need to picked up and organized, and the downstairs has boxes all over that I'm only half done filling. Of course, the kids are creating their usual amount of mess, and I can't stay on top that because of the "going through" stuff I'm trying to get done.

I'm going to cry.

[Little Wing]

23. I'm sorry to hear about your meth addiction. Don't worry, I'm trained,

the landlord won't be able to tell as easily as I can from a photo.

[matcom]

30. BBWWWAAAAHHHAAAAA

Meth: it's a helluva drug :spray:

[LaraMN]

32. I will have you know

I have very nice skin.
I do not have meth-head complexion.
I don't even twitch that much.

[matcom]

37. you kidding me?

THIS finally explains the trips, bumps, scrapes, boob-coffee stains, falls, etc..etc..etc... :rofl:

you must be fucked up 24/7!

:rofl:

[matcom]

8. ...

:rofl:

show my post to your hubby and post here what he said

[LaraMN]

I talked to him at work. He's probably at the bar now.

I'm telling him everyone smart thinks he's a horrible person.

[Goblinmonger]

19. Circular logic much? n/t

[ceile]

3. They just don't think sometimes, do they?

:eyes:

[LaraMN]

9. No. And to top it off,

he "has to" go to the bar with his boss, after work. Take heart, however, because "probably won't be TOO late."

He is on toilet duty.
Am I being crazy?

[ceile]

14. Of course! The bar!

Man, sounds your's and mine were separated at birth.

[northzax]

6. just remember

your landlady will judge you for all eternity based on the condition of your house tomorrow while you are packing to move. if it isn't perfect, you are a terrible person and a worse mother. remember that.

[LaraMN]

11. Exactly.

:rofl:
In all seriousness, she's my Mom's friend, and she rented to us because she wanted someone who would take good care of the place. As such, I feel a particular obligation for it to look decent.

[matcom]

12. she probably smokes around her children

:hide:

[northzax]

16. that kind of mess?

she probably makes her children smoke too. I mean we're talking about people who sell their attractive children to middle eastern sheiks.

[Midlodemocrat]

15. Exactly. That landlady's opinion is worth more than God's.

And I would like to know where that precious JackMN is during all this.




:hide:

[LaraMN]

18. He is watching Baby Einstein.

Oh criminy. I just checked and he was staring at the menu screen. For how long, I don't know...

[Midlodemocrat]

24. So not only are you a terrible housekeeper, but you are neglecting

JackMN.

I think we need to stage an intervention. First stop, we cut off HusbandMN's ......head.


:hide:

[LaraMN]

25. *snort!*

He's got a cute head, though. I might want to keep it.
He did swallow his (legitimate) disgust toward his former employer today, in order to get them to take care of a few things (that they already should have anyway,) so I guess I have to give him some props for that.

I'm just totally swamped, right now. I have a ton of homework I have to get to, as well. I wonder if I can draw thumbnail sketches for my design class, while drunk?

[Little Wing]

26. I don't know, you'd better spend the next 45 minutes

debating whether to use pencil or charcoal :P

[1gobluedem]

40. I wrote an A+ paper once while drunk

Go for it.

[Oeditpus Rex]

27. Will there be video

of said beating?









Me likey the tough chicks.

[LaraMN]

29. Realistically, I don't think it would go down that way,

since he outweighs me by over a hundred pounds.
I think such an attempt on my part would result in me being picked up, brought outside, and locked out of the house.
:rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

33. k

Will there be video of you pounding on the door, then? Or sitting forlornly in the snow?

:evilgrin:

[LaraMN]

35. Bwahaha!

I have way too much dignity to do that.
(I also know how to crawl in through the porch window.)

[Oeditpus Rex]

39. Oooo!

There's gotta be video of that.

:evilgrin:

[Lars39]

28. Let's reframe this....

This requires *him* to make the trips to Goodwill, the dump, and the recycling center.
To get his co-operation, you might want to point out that there is a deposit riding on the presentability of the place.

[LaraMN]

31. He's going to. Tomorrow morning. I know that. I just need to calm down.

I've already got the den mostly under control. I can do this. I can do this. It's not that bad...
:crazy:

[matcom]

34. yeah. well, you need to post another updated pic so WE can be the judge

:P

[LaraMN]

36. Seriously?

You'll just pick me apart and shatter my wafer-thin ego.

[matcom]

38. MOI?

i am both shocked and appalled that you would make such an insinuation regarding my character














































:rofl:
