If you wait long enough, it comes back into fashion.

A few years ago I was headed to bed and went to go put the stick into the track. As I stand back up my head ramed into the little dangling rod you use to open and close them. As I do the dance of pain, cursing and hold my head in pain I discover the blood running down the side of my head, fuck. I rip the rod off the track go to throw it. I have a moment of clarity realizing I’m about the throw it at my TV. Still mad I throw it at the floor. I then watch in stunned horror as it bounced and did a little twirl into my TV. Said fuck it and went to bed. The next day I ordered new blinds for my back door ( they dont have a rod but string) and went to Costco for a new TV.

So I might have fucked up last week:

I have been contemplating buying a new couch for my house. It being Thanksgiving, I figured this was the best time so I could save some money. So I hopped in my car and went and bought a new couch.

I also decided this would be a good time to rearrange my living room the way I wanted it to be (for the new couch). This meant halving two builtins to accommodate my very large TV stand. My thought process was that I could remove half the builtins without having to remove them completely; I was wrong. Boy, was I wrong.

Not only am I going to have to build all new builtins, but also:

1. Left an inch gap between the ceiling drywall and the wall
2. I must’ve cracked the ceiling drywall removing a builtin, so I need to patch the ceiling (its a popcorn ceiling)
3. The carpet under the builtins is not the same carpet as my living room
4. The builtins were painted after they were installed — including the wall behind the builtins (i.e. there was no backing to the builtins)
5. The window on that wall is not centered in the room (in fact, I don’t think anything in that house — window, fireplace — are centered)

So yeah, I can’t help but wonder how many years it’ll be before I fix my living room.

~All because of a fucking couch. 🤦‍♂️~

Oh what the FUCK‽ So you’re the weirdo who broke into my house and took that picture‽

I had no sink in my bathroom for 7 years. Every day I would use the shower to wash my hands or brush my teeth and then think “one of these days I should figure out who to call to install this sink”.

I gave up on the apartment before it happened. I wonder if these days it would have been different with me being medicated.

I have ADHD. I have those awful looking and beat up vertical blinds. I haven’t replaced them because I am busy, lazy as fuck, and don’t give a shit about how crap they look, not because of my ADHD. Not picking up a strip after it falls because I get squirreled away? That’s all on my goofy brain.

I have been called out.

And for thar reason (and I like fire), I have no blinds. :)

I miss vertical blinds. Our cats destroyed all our horizontal blinds, so we just keep the curtains closed for privacy.
