I could relate to some of the incidences, especially the one about moving out. All the organizing and packing of the storage boxes, then having to unload them all back afterwards, really kills me. I have to agree that movers would definitely come in handy in times like those.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795470596829648796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-19854242120446879402012-07-10T03:19:47.404-04:002012-07-10T03:19:47.404-04:00Good luck with the move...I think it is one of tho...Good luck with the move...I think it is one of those things I hate as much as you hate ice cream! just the thought of boxes makes me want to cry!Allyhttp://www.beyondstores.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-28245416164543940372012-06-17T14:57:38.104-04:002012-06-17T14:57:38.104-04:00Excuse me Thomas Wolfe was born in 1900, not 1930....Excuse me Thomas Wolfe was born in 1900, not 1930.

Thomas Wolfe (b.1930, d. 1938) was regarded as one of the best writers of the early 20th Century. He is elegaic and poetic in his prose. Tom Wolfe(b. 1931 -)is pretty close to a hack compared to the deceased Thomas Wolfe.<br />DadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-17362873974457865092012-06-16T22:39:07.327-04:002012-06-16T22:39:07.327-04:00Hilarious post!

Their new churches paid, of course. Ours offered to as well, but my husband said, No." I have to say he is fabulous at packing a moving van, so I'll volunteer him to help you move. Seriously. He'll do it too. He loves that kind of thing. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10242043652161677900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-59793247185011526882012-06-16T12:51:07.730-04:002012-06-16T12:51:07.730-04:00Dad, I want to like Wolfe, I really do.

Not to mention it's a pain in the butt. <br />How you gonna save the company money when you go on workman's comp from a bad back, or a broken ankle, from pickin up the boxes of books your wife can't get rid of.. OOOOH! (Can you hear me Now?) End of Rant! whatever.... Yes there is much that is inimitable about you and as you journey south check out Thomas Wolfe, the writer of Asheville, NC and an expatriate to NYC, "You Can't Go Home Again." is a beautiful book. Also I think I hear some Dorothy Parker in you, check her out. Hey judging from the comments the verdict is in! Hire movers! But it's probably too late the price discount gone as the others have already moved. OK , I'm leaving now,,, I'm going to think of something else,,, like you being inimitable....DadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-66401161967613210242012-06-15T22:38:16.773-04:002012-06-15T22:38:16.773-04:00Moving sucks bananas like slurping soda through a ...Moving sucks bananas like slurping soda through a straw AFTER it's gone you bastards.<br /><br />Noah, I mean Mr. V, remember that you are spending the equivalent of your bonus on moving yourself, so really it's a wash. Yes, profit sharing and being fair to the others, yadda whatever. Sounds pretentious and hipster to me. Hire the damn movers. You can trust me on this. We just moved ten-hundred miles away BY OURSELVES and it cost as much as our bonus, and there are still boxes that haven't unpacked themselves. Maybe OB's (the brewery, not the tampons) smug pretentious hipsters get bigger bonuses. In which case I'm transferring to OB (the brewery, not the tampons) in NC. BUT I'M USING THE MOVERS! Stick that in your popcorn and pop it.<br /><br />Honored to hear inimitable is high on your list of favorites and am hoping it doesn't require the hundreds of therapy sessions feminazi did. But, nothing really worth it comes easy, right? I can recommend a therapist in Broomfield.<br /><br />As for your tampons, I say this: Diva Cup (Marie, stop laughing). Someone might still find it, but at least they won't know what the heck it is.<br /><br />I'm going to pick up my underwear off the floor.Margihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00380912871792176901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-86003945092195032542012-06-15T21:48:18.092-04:002012-06-15T21:48:18.092-04:00He just smiles and eats a banana?

Wel...You are absolutely a pre-Avengers Joss Whedon. Well done.<br />I am so with you on the movers and the popcorn and just everything.<br />My husband doesn't hire movers, he doesn't believe in even asking people to help us move. I finally put my foot down when I was 7 months pregnant. "No, I will not be lifting the couch down the stairs in the snow. Make some phone calls. I will feed them pizza." We have moved 19 times in almost 14 years. It's always the same.<br />Why, oh why? With the popcorn, hipsters? Really? I have PTSD about popcorn, really. Long story.<br />Wishing you the best of everything with this move.TangledLouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771682524596744447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6916416825093476865.post-53850900808987986322012-06-15T13:05:01.321-04:002012-06-15T13:05:01.321-04:00Holy crap, I don't even know where to start wi...Holy crap, I don't even know where to start with this one! How about I just point out the obvious, which is the line "it's gone, you bastards, or it wouldn't slurp." is now my all-time favorite saying EVER!!! I can't wait to use it! Let me just say I loved this whole freaking post; it was like a roller coaster of fun! Does that make sense? You somehow got me all giddy and wound up with this one; usually your zen-like words calm and center me. This one has me bouncy. I'm gonna read it again and do more giggling at the hipsters crunching popcorn, Mr. V saying "What nonsense are you referring to this time?", and the satellite guy defiling your bathroom. Oh, and I do feel your pain: coulda had movers, but now you're not? That one will sting for a while.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586250033479717511noreply@blogger.com
