I was subpoenaed once to testify at a shoplifting trial. After sitting in court for 5 hours it was announced the accused plead guilty and I could go. I bought groceries today, then dusted furniture. And polished my swords.
Well that's not boring. Now I'm all curious about your swords. "How many swords does sophia have? What type of swords are they? Where are they kept? How are the swords incorporated into daily life?" and so on and so forth....
Oops...everyone i hang out with has a sword...they think it's ho-hum. Sorry for being too titillating. 1 saber with horse head pommel, 34 inches long, leather wrapped handle. 1 scimitar 38 inches long, wood handle, hawk pommel. Both propped up in the spare bedroom. 2 matching brass sabers 32 inches long with leather wrapped handles and engraved blades are currently on order (1 to be sold). All weighted and balanced. Each weighs approx 2.5 - 3 pounds. No sharp edges. They have pointy ends. They are useful for improving posture. Mother threatens to use them to rotisserie chickens over the bbq. I like wearing mine on my head but now I'm practicing to be able to have one sit on my hip. :focus: I'm going to go wash my hair. Then I'm going to sit on the front porch until it dries.
Doing laundry would be more exciting if my front-loading washer had a glass door. Right now, DH and I are watching the cat nap. [Swords. Sharp shiny things! We love our swords, too]
Think of your non-windowed washer as radio. Just sit there and listen to it and imagine what's going on inside: "The shirtfront knows!" Quote from the Great Gilded Sleeve: "Cordu-roy!!!" "It's Archie-support's torn with Tuffy." "McGee! Zipper McGee! Don't open that <CRASH!!> clothes drier!" (Anyone younger than 60, nevermind all this; not only boring but unintelligible.)
A coworker had tickets to a baseball game over the weekend. He said I should watch for him on tv. I ended up listening to the game on the radio. I listened for him instead.
Well!?! Don't keep us in the dark. We're sitting here bored out of our skulls and you leave out the most pertinent information -- what brand of radio was it? Oh, and did you hear him?
I bought the stereo at the Goodwill. It's in the garage. I was working on a furniture project that is far too interesting for this thread. Volume was set to average and I did not hear him.
I walked my dog at the local middle school fields today. There weren't any kids there because it was in the evening. I brought a small tennis ball so we could play. The game goes like this: I toss the ball. She runs and gets it. I walk towards her until we meet. Then she drops the ball at my feet. I pick it up. Repeat. Soon, it was too dark and we had to go home.
My wife bought a plastic bird feeder, with a metal stand you stick in the ground. The bird feeder only requires removing a cardboard liner with colorful birds and a UPC code, even the metal hanging bracket is installed. Talk about boring - nothing to glue, screw, or snap. At least the metal 6' stand would have been a challenge, if only, within the reach of it's 3" spikes I had hit a rock, requiring a repositioning of the "optimum" spot in our yard. But alas, the soil was soft, the bird feeder was hung. It had just rained, so the lawn is wet, my wife's feet remained dry while she directed me to the optimum bird feeder planting spot, only two times. I fully expected many more. Now to find the perfect bird mix. There are no less than a dozen brands, in various sizes, for different kinds of birds. The Whooping Crane Mix is sadly lacking - why he could just walk right up to it.
I recently changed the color of the pointer on an outdoor thermometer from black to white because I couldn't see the darker color from inside the house. I watched the paint dry.
The most forward part of the dash slants downward toward the cabin (or upward toward the windshield). This presents problems if I mount my bobblehead dogs on the dash with their heads directly facing the cabin. On sudden stops, the head can project off its little pivot/balancing hole and end up just lying there in the big neck hole. When this happens, there's no more bobbing action. The other day I had to reposition one of the dogs because its head would fall off its pivot/balancing hole frequently. So far, it's working.
Would there be any better stationary ballistic motion if you stuck your dogs closer to the cabin on the smooth segments either side of the MFD? Have you considered little teeny leashes to keep their heads in place but still allow bobbling? I don't think you should attach the other end of the leashes to the rear view mirror, though. Could be construed as cruelty to bobbleheads if the sudden stops decapit--oh, it's just too sad to envision.
Actual conversation is a little too interesting... no more questions! Watching paint dry is more interesting than it's given credit for, so cut it out. I always untie my left shoe when I'm at work because that shoe always feels too tight. My feet are the same size as one another though.
