Why, oh WHY do you People Let me DO THIS???

Ok, my livingroom is a shambles. You might ask why. Well, the tv stand that I built? The one shelf was not even..... that is to say it was crooked! If you cocked your head to the right, it looked fine. But only left-handed people cock their head to the right. (I think its some sort of quirk.)

Well, I cocked my head once too often, to the left. So now the TV, boom box, and the Comcast "we can give you oh so much better, and charge you an arm and a leg, and sorry you have an old tv " Box are sitting in the middle of the livingroom floor. My stand that I was oh so proud of, is laying on its side. I have all the proper tools out to dismantle it, and put it back together. I'll do that tomorrow. I sweated getting all the stuff apart!

I remember when I wasn't so particular. I'm thinking it wasn't that long ago. But back then, I didn't HAVE to be. My ex bought everything of the finest quality. If it wasn't right, he tossed it and bought again. (Doesn't he sound like a Saint???) Nobody would ever outdo him in purchases. Of course, when the credit card bill came in, he'd lecture me on watching my spending. ( I, myself, NEVER used his credit card, but that is a totally different story!)

Today, I have my T-Square, my yardstick, and my pen at the ready. I used some old wallpaper that I have a habit of saving........... and lookit that, it came in handy! I'm using the straight side as a guide. So far, I have noted that I am about 3 inches off on the top........ no wonder people have to tilt their heads!)

I think I have done quite enough domestic shit today. I'll let you know how straight it is after I take all the screws out, re-align it, and rescrew it. I'm hoping I finish it sometime this year. (see previous "project" blog.)

And, a quick note: I am hating my job immensely! Sometimes, when you think about doing something..... like moving back home, you notice all the little things....... or big things, in my case. So, I am working on my resume like a demented person......... uh, wait. I AM demented. Ok, I am working on my resume. I will lie some, in order to get the job I want. And, I need all of you for references. Pretend I did something fantastic for you!!

Enough for the night. I think I'm tired.
