Noah and I are dancing with Jack Black on the TV this morning. Granted, I'm dressed and he's in his underpants and a tshirt. I have zero desire to start my day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I rode my bike to work today - it was 32F out. I froze my hands, and I otherwise managed to avoid getting all sweaty. But the 3 1/2 mile ride got me all tired out, which is weird as I rode 20 miles on Saturday without a problem.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm being all schedule-y productive this morning. We bought a new couch yesterday, but before the couch can be delivered, we need the Salvation Army to come pick up the current couch.

I only have Fridays off. I also VERY MUCH need to get my car in for an oil change and almost certainly new rear brake pads and a drive belt.

(This is like one of those logic puzzles; you put the couch in the car and leave the fox with the old couch...)

We scheduled the new couch to be delivered on the 18th, because of all the other stuff that has to happen on Fridays between now and then.

We don't want to be couchless for more than a week, but we DO want to be couchless for several days so that we can work on that part of the hardwood floor. So I'm going to try to schedule the Salvation Army pickup for the 11th. That gives us a week between old couch leaving and new couch arriving.

And the aforementioned car maintenance is scheduled for THIS Friday, the 4th.

I need a secretary.

In my limited experience, couches never arrive on their delivery date. I don't know how it works on the departing side, though.

Well, gotta start somewhere; without any delivery date at all (even if it gets blown off), the couch will NEVER arrive.

Ok, I read this as babies.

Is this your first couch? If so, they tend to come late. But if this is your second or third, be prepared for it to come early.

Now I'm picturing this locker room talk: "Dude, did you use protection? You don't want to end up with an unwanted couch...."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That's a gorgeous couch, Steph, now I have couch envy. Will the fabric stand up to cats?

sumi, maybe your cat is just hiding in the house? I lost Leo under the sofa once.
