My Lame Sunday

AmoroAgain · March 2010

I've seriously spent the last 3 hours shaving my sweater (a real sweater, not the um, down south kind!). That's pathetic.

Haha! I'm dying right now. Why 3 hours?? I've never... shaved a sweater before ... but I imagine it's slightly fun.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

Because I'm planning on wearing it on the plane Tuesday, and I can be slightly perfectionist with this kind of thing.

shannonalise · March 2010

That's awesome.

jajph1974 · March 2010

I would rather spend three hours shaving a sweater than go to the grocery store on a Sunday, which is where I just came from.

Grocery shopping makes me hate people.

Nebb · March 2010

I would be a bit frightened if it took you 3hrs to shave down there.

crfische · March 2010

Dude, Amoro. Sweet new profile pic.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

Admittedly Nebb, I let it get a little out of control:

HA.

WildRumpus · March 2010

3 hours? Good lord.

So far today we've gone to breakfast and Petsmart to pick up some things for Ox. Now I'm delaying cleaning.

sarah0725 · March 2010

Ha, don't think I have ever shave a sweater.

I just went running with FI. That's always a way to make me feel supergreat about my level of fitness. :P

AmoroAgain · March 2010

Aww... I'm glad you're with him though Sarah!

missy68 · March 2010

After being all ready to enjoy a 3 day vacation prior to the weekend, I spent the first day in bed with a migraine and second day getting a DHE infusion, which I was all excited was going to last a few weeks at minimum (breaking my daily migraine cycle). Saturday, Max was the star of obedience class - we'd been expecting him to be sent to remedial school - and voila. A migraine starts.

So I'm spending today in the quiet and relative dark, hoping it was a one-time occurrence. J's riding all day. Hoo-frigging-ray.

Have a safe flight, Amoro.

Can someone explain sweater shaving to me?

I didn't know this sort of practice existed.

<div>My sweater shaving experience involved a little tiny buzzing machine that pulled all the little lint balls off that form on a sweater when it's been washed.</div>

crfische · March 2010

Huh. You don't say...

AmoroAgain · March 2010

Yup yup, Rach has it right!

You don't have balled up sweaters Fischey?

crfische · March 2010

Well, gosh darn it, I must. But my guess is that when they get bally I just stop wearing them. I didn't know you could de-ball them.

Heehee...de-ball. Sweater neutering.

Nebb · March 2010

I had no idea thats what you meant, but ive used those before, but not since I was a little kid so I forgot they even existed. I wouldnt even know where to buy one now. Here I was de-balling my sweaters by hand when I could have a machine do it for me.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

The shaver is much more satisfying. This is the one I have:

But you can get some really heavy duty ones.

crfische · March 2010

Oh my gosh, it really IS like....a SWEATER shaver?

I thought you were razoring it or something.

This is like an alternate world to me.

sarabellam · March 2010

The pic (first one, not sweater shaver) is awesome. Great imagery there.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

Yeah! It picks up all the little lint balls and pills and crap that pulls up on your clothes.

Nebb · March 2010

I love the sound they make, that was always my favourite part. I need to find one of these, immediately, because I have a closet full of sweaters I could shave.

crfische · March 2010

I must invest in one of these inventions.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

It's addicting Nebb. Just like shredding.

Nebb · March 2010

I love shredding! I have a whole bag of paper waiting to be shredded but I havnt had time. I find it odd how mundane tasks like this can be so amusing somehow.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

I used to LOVE to shred at my old job. No one understood it. We had to shred papers once a year. Oooooh so fun. I used to make a game of not stopping the shred sound, so I'd have paper ready before the shredder stopped. heh.

crfische · March 2010

I like stuff like that because you can actually SEE your progress. You once had a pile, and now the pile is gone.

Satisfying.

AmoroAgain · March 2010

Extremely! Like popping a zit.

crfische · March 2010

HAHA!!! My mom used to LOVE to pop Noah's zits. EW.
