This is the thread where you revel in doing some stupid little thing you've been putting off forever and now it's finally done.

I defrosted my refrigerator last night.

Am I the only person in the year 2003 who actually has a refrigerator that NEEDS to be defrosted? It's so archaic and I resent it but was tired of that huge block of ice hanging uselessly atop my food, and tired of not being able to keep things frozen. So now it's done.

I just now cleaned out the front two pockets of my backpack, rediscovering some "gourmet gumballs." Not sure that counts.

I would be able to answer this thread correctly had my roommate come home so we could clean the kitchen together BUT NOOOOO.

That's absolutely the kind of thing I had in mind.

x-post: No fingers in there I hope?

jewelly (jewelly), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:19 (twenty-one years ago)

No fingers! Gumballs of flavors I can't remember: one of them looks like cherry coke. Another is probably pink champagne. I'm eating one that's got to be cappuccino.

No fingers, though. Only balls.

*cough*

luna (luna.c), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:24 (twenty-one years ago)

And to think I hitched my ILE wagon to you, Tep. What a fool I was.

jewelly (jewelly), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey, come on, that was deliberate!

Aimee's coughing gave me prostate examination flashbacks.

Tep (ktepi), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:27 (twenty-one years ago)

You just can't stop sabatoging our love, can you? It could have been so sweet.

jewelly (jewelly), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Glad I could help.

luna (luna.c), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:32 (twenty-one years ago)

The second time I've been rejected for talking about the flavor of my balls. God, fourth grade sucked.

Tep (ktepi), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:32 (twenty-one years ago)

My youthful innocence!

Finishing my research report. Blimmin' 'Is there a market for mainstreem black American films in the UK' WHAT WAS I THNIKING

I cleaned my fridge for the first time since I moved in Feb.
I avoided it because it was too disgusting.
And I moved it to the other wall; my brain feels different when I look at the kitchen now.

I finally cut down those weeds that had grown into trees in my yard; I shoulda taken them out when they was babies. Longest. Day. Evah.

(ps 'poke plants' have berries what really hawdkorr stain your clothes, fyi)

nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 04:49 (twenty-one years ago)

My kitchen sink is shiny, and I threw out some moldy spaghetti sauce and yogurt.

tokyo rosemary (rosemary), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 04:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Also: finally filled out that paperwork for L-dawg's school.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 04:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Nothing but nothing. I'm a waste.

i'll come back to this thread when i finish those two songs i've been putting off for a few months

electric sound of jim (electricsound), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 04:57 (twenty-one years ago)

..and I'll come back when I finally go to get the ECG to see wether I have some heart problem I'm feeling twinges of again, or confirm once and for all I'm actually a whining hyponchondriac. Blergh kill me.

Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 05:00 (twenty-one years ago)

hstencil the ultimate revenge would have been to clean it yourself. when he sees it and apologizes you respond with a brisk and cheerful "no problem! i used my tongue, though"

Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 05:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I finally got around to moving that 500lb rock from the alley to the flower garden. There's a few square feet less I have to worry about maintaining.

jesus god! did you have a crane?

Orbit (Orbit), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 05:55 (twenty-one years ago)

Nope just a couple of pieces of plywood to protect the patio, a couple of 2X4's and a long shovel. It's amazing what you can do with leverage.

The mystery of the pyramids - solved!

Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 06:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I wish I hadn';t started reading this thread. My freezer needs defrosting too :( Or I could just take all the stuff out and scrape it a bit like I did last time.

Back to the topic - I made an appt for a man to come and look at the shower. Woo.

Finally synthesized that cure for cancer.

oops (Oops), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 07:11 (twenty-one years ago)

needs more ice cream

electric sound of jim (electricsound), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 07:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I gave it all she's got, captain! Christ, I just can't do anything right by you, can I/

oops (Oops), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 07:30 (twenty-one years ago)

The last time I made an appointment for a man to come look at my shower, I ended up a material witness in the Heidi Fleiss trial. Tread carefully, my friend.
