UnderToad:

Youa gonna geta biggga box in the next week or whatevah.

It's not anything you can use but I want you to know right here, right now: it is NOT a bomb, okay? Or a toy car. But the box is the size of - well, it's huge. But only b/c I was too lazy and hot and tired and my fucking knees are killing me that I got such a big box for such a small thing. But it will be YOUR thing and I HOPE HOPE HOPE it makes you laugh at your home the way I laugh at mine.

But remembah- bigga box but no-a dangerous, K?

ah, very poor timing on my part. I apologize. It's a small thing, it will make you laugh and you WILL come to treasure it, you hear me? YOU WILL!

or you can chuck it. Either way.

PS: if the farm house doesn't work out you can probably LIVE in the box (j/k)

Trilby · 12-07-2012, 06:48 AM

after thinking it over, Tony, I haven't sent it yet and iffen you don't want it-no problem. I can keep it. let me know after a bit how you're feeling on 'stuff' as George Carlin says.

Hope all goes smoothly!

I'm gonna go look at an apartment 5 minutes away from my work today. 3 hours in the car each day is becoming intollerably annoying (8.5 years now). Money saved on gas, tolls and demo should all but pay my rent.

Trilby · 12-07-2012, 10:47 AM

I have re-thought my position, Toad.

I'll just send the equivalent of the gift in what you can use:

$

It was just a framed Brian Froud print anyway (of a rock door opening into a hobbit hut) No biggie. I can keep it.

word.

My sister figures she spends 500/month on gas. And we don't have tolls.

Jim, if that works out, it will be a huge improvement to your quality of life. You won't know what to do with all your free time.

Let's see. 3 hours, times 5 days a week, times 50 weeks a year, times 8.5 years. That's 6,375 hours.

What's the saying? You need to spend 10,000 hours doing something to become an expert at it? Dude. Don't give up now!

I would love to not have the commute, but I won't live in this armpit that smells like a fat rendering plant.

Undertoad · 12-07-2012, 11:48 AM

DanaC · 12-07-2012, 11:51 AM

Well done that Toad!

Way to go!
