This weekend's most exciting destination was Target.
1. Today's LJ garage sale item is...
Hertfordshire's favorite daughter, Posh. Mint in the box. Ready to tour without Ginger in 98!
Someone on this list needs her. Comment here or email me at DLelandWhite@aol.com and let's make a deal. And by deal I mean any offer is going to be a good one since all the greedy ebayers want 30 bucks for her and no one's biting.
2. I ate a butter burger yesterday for the first time. We saw them on TV once on this special about freaky hamburgers and have been talking about making them for almost two years. You take ground beef and cook up a burger. Then you put a slab of butter on top and let it melt into the meat. That's the only condiment you need. And I plan to now eat one annually. As in once a year. Because I think two of them in a year would make me die. I felt actual fear while taking my first bite and followed my one burger with an enormous heaping plate of salad with lemon juice for dressing.
3. After like seven or however many years of ownership, our Swiffer has disintegrated. Pad falling off, stick breaking down, grippy parts that hold the Swiffer cloths losing their grippiness. This angers me. I wanted to grow old with my Swiffer and believed I would. So I went to Target (on a Sunday morning at 10--which is a bad move and will remember now to go only right at 8 when they open--and got the new Method "Swiffer"-like thing instead. It's all eco and comes in a mulchboard box and uses cloths made of corn fiber and this other cloth that you wash when it's dirty and is way sturdier than the Swiffer ever was. So eff-u Swiffer because I'm green now.
4. Oh yeah, I forgot to say this in my Texas entries but one of my mom's ambulance guys recognized me. Not one of the EMTs who brought her to the ER. This was a guy who was her transporter back from the hospital to the nursing home when they released her. He goes, "Are you famous? I know you from somewhere." I assured him that I was not famous and then we figured out that he'd read my reviews on Movies.com. So that was weird but nice.
5. Perhaps you missed this, what with it being Labor Day and all, but my "Project Runway" recap was posted over the weekend on Advocate.com. You didn't want to do any actual work this morning anyway, so go read it even if you don't watch the show:
