I'm so effing bored. There's a dangerous possibility something will get painted
or ripped out, or disassembled.

Right now I am seriously contemplating getting a spray bottle of water, a drop cloth, and a scraper, and removing the popcorn texture from my bedroom ceiling.
I need a project or I am going to cut my own hair or do something equally inadvisable.

:banghead:

Not while you're having feelings, you might regret that. But reading this SO makes me wanna paint something!
I'm supposed to be cutting glass right now but I'd rather rip up the brown shag :puke: off the living room floor.

4. Bwahaha!
When I was pregnant the first time around, I had a weird-out and decided to cut my hair with purse-scissors, in the car, while my then-boyfriend was driving us to visit family. It didn't turn out very well.

5. One's at summer school, one is sleeping,
and the other has the ads from the paper and is creating a massive list of back-to-school items that she "needs". :eyes:

8. I told her that she already has a lot of clothes that still fit
and she explained to me that "I'm kind of getting tired of wearing all of them."

I told her I'm not supplying her an entirely new wardrobe. She has FAR more clothes than I do, as it is.

11. Hey, she could always be employed by her mother.
I didn't get an allowance as a child. My mother place dollar amounts on chores. If I wanted to be lazy and only dust the dining room table, then I got a dollar. If I wanted to work really hard and clean most of the house, I could make $40-50. Even under the age of ten, this taught me really quick the value of a dollar.

6. Bwahaha!
My husband is getting a large tattoo on one of his calves, and I reminded him that he's going to have to shave his leg before he gets it. I told him he should probably shave the other leg as well, for the sake of uniformity. He disagreed. I secretly hope the hair on the shaved leg grows back different-looking so that I can make fun of him.

13. come to Texas and joint project my wallpaper and painting with me.
I never DO my projects because I hate doing them alone. My mom used to do all my projects with me and we always had a blast doing them. I remember collapsing in the middle of the kitchen when we were putting down press-on linoleum tiles together over some silly remark one of us made. We often did that, and my sisters too.

Mom's dead and sisters and daughter are too far away.
