How many boxes did it take to move your stuff?
about twenty crates. I don't have much. It's mostly books.

Why wouldn’t you just sleep on your mattress ?
I'm too old to be sleeping on a mattress on the floor. It's about having class.

Spent 7 hours doing yard work. From gathering leaves to the first mow to yet another flea treatment. I’m sore from head to toe and I’m absolutely exhausted.

a guy on my flight from newark to myrtle beach was asked to leave the plane because he vaped in the bathroom. while we were still boarding. with his wife and kids on the plane. he had on an eagles shirt so that explains a little.

he apologized and said it wouldnt happen again. gate agent said that is good to hear. so go ahead and grab your stuff. he apologized again and the agent said this isnt a conversation this is what is happening. his wife then chimed in and was told the same thing. she was given the option to leave the plane with her kids too but stayed on the flight

easter dinner is going to be awkward

Pans are like toilet paper, you don't go cheap on them. Also Doug is rich.
