A happy birthday shout-out.

In truth I have no idea how this photo is supposed to represent a Happy Birthday but I thought it was so bad it was good. So there you have it.

So, Happy Birthday to the best brothers a girl could ask for!

Sorry you guys are up to your eyeballs in exams and studying - it'll all pay off when you're making the big bucks and paying me to design your yuppie executive homes.

Can't quite wrap my head around this.

Hammock? Floor? Hammock-floor?

I'm not really afraid of heights and this still kinda freaks me out.

Introduction to Real Estate.

Fresh from my latest MLS search, I bring you: "How Not to Sell a House Using Photos":





Could someone please tell me what the hell a potential buyer is supposed to gain from viewing these pictures?

Magical Moose Antler Hoof Table Folk Art Antique

And the prize for best online classified ad EVER goes to:

"This is your chance to own a unique piece of Canadian aboriginal art. It has been in my family (we are Mic-Macs) for decades and is in very good shape. Reluctantly, I must now part with it and let someone else enjoy it as we have over the years. My new girlfriend (Oooh bitter woman !) does not like it and is threatening to bring my sex life to a halt until I get rid of it !

Crafted from genuine moose hooves and antlers, it will easily blend in to many styles of home decor and will certainly make a great conversation piece. The bullets used to kill the animal are strapped to the hooves. Although not scientifically proven, it has been known to bring luck and prosperity to its owner*.

Glass top is 48 X 26 in. and antlers spread 22 X 43 in.I presently have it at home in Gatineau, Quebec.

Let me know if you would like to arrange viewing of this beautiful piece of furniture. Free delivery in the Ottawa Ontario area. May also be shipped without the glass top to save on shipping.

* Level of luck and prosperity not guaranteed; your results may vary."




Thank you kijiji for your endless supply of puppy-mill dogs and choice decor.

Edited to add a wonderful comment made by a co-worker: "That is the ugliest and scariest thing I've EVER seen. I think it would work well in the playroom…." Man do I love the people I work with.

Too early for Christmas shopping?

A hand-painted saw blade is the perfect gift for all your loved ones this holiday season.

Ok, I gotta go look at something else - this is scaring the crap out of me.

It makes the baby Jesus cry.

That people could take this $649,000 "rare opportunity to own in Landsdowne Terrace - Heritage Row overlooking Government House and minutes from downtown. Two large comfortable apartments. Designated herritage in 1990. An end unit on a treelined street.":

and do this:

No sales pitch necessary

"Retro Contemporary Plush Adult Vibrating Mitt Chair."


Enough said.
It's not too late to get your bids in.

Like driving by a car accident.

I saw this yesterday on Apartment Therapy and couldn't get it out of my head. I have to fight this complusion to keep going back and looking at it. Oh the humanity.

Add this to my wedding registry.

John Deer tractor print bedsheets. Apparently it comes with a "matching custom hand quilted wall hanging". Be still my heart.

Back off bitches, there's only one available.

What 3 million will get you in my hood.

Or: "Why bigger rooms does not equal better taste."





"SUPERB LOCATION AND PRIVATE SETTING! THIS SPACIOUS HOME WAS BUILT IN 1997. IT OFFERS PRIVACY AND SERENITY BY OVERLOOKING THE U.S. AMBASSADOR'S RESIDENCE WITH ITS PARK-LIKE GROUNDS. THIS EXTENSIVE HOME HAS 7 BEDROOMS, 7 FIREPLACES, AND HARDWOOD FLOORS THROUGHOUT. PRIVATE POOL & GARDENS."

Lord, could someone also please explain to real estate agents that typing in all caps is off-putting. If this house is so great you shouldn't need to shout it from the roof tops honey. Oxymoron case-in-point: "SERENITY" translates roughly into RELAX!!!! RELAX RIGHT NOW!!! Yikes.

Speechless.

NY Times.
