you can't base an entire business in a niche that's easily filled by the competition.

This is why the pre-owned toilet seat business is king, King We man.

And we do not buy competitors, because of possible antitrust suits man; we merely crush them and buy their remaining assets for pennies, whee man.

After another record-breaking week of obliterating sales quotas for POTSs, we blew back to the casa, speed we man.

Arrived in time to mow lawn, mow we man.

Grass shorter than last week, technically easier man.

However, job nearly killed us, barely made us stronger man.

 

Space aliens flying by would laugh at us, here's why man:

"Hee HEEEEE!  Those Earthlings grow grass just so they can CUT it, ha HAAAAA man!"

what a day.

My uterus keeps trying to murder me, and I love my cup but when I let it too long,

it's like a murder scene. 

My dinner arrived two hours late and I didn't accept it since I already had dinner. 

the driver said he had some issues. I was getting hangry. 

But Ben and Jerry, my two favorite men are here to save the day.

Hubs snored enough to wake the dead.  Between him and the dog I was up at 5 instead of sleeping in.  

We're going to watch a movie today with my friend and her two kiddos.  

My body wants to gain weight, I am hungry always... so annoying.  Already up 4lbs.  I'm going to have to be nore careful about what I eat now especially since my shoulder hates me right now.  Chest and shoulder days are limited.

I was up before 7. Water the plants, sprayed the yard, got a haircut.

Then came the calls....

The car dealer is relentless I tell ya. I left instructions for them not to call me, so naturally, they call me.

I'm like, dude, relax, you're the only dealer of this brand I contacted. I won't shop you under the rug.

I know everyone has the same car for the same price....

Next, my neighbor to the back, his brother calls me.

I got concerned for a second that something had happened to him.

He's OK, but getting Alzheimer.

House is on the market.

Now I'd buy it, but I wanna LEAVE NYC, not stick around some more...

May be one of my cousins will take it.

The weather forecast changes minute to minute.

First the high was a gorgeous 87, now it's 92.

Then it was sunny, now it's T-storms....

This is why I don't like American car dealerships. I wish their paycheck wasn't dependent on how many cars they sell. So much nicer here. You can walk around and look at cars without being harassed. You're in the dealership for about 10-15 minutes before someone asks if you need any help, if you don't they leave you alone. And you also don't have to have a guy in the backseat telling you where to go if you want to take the car for a test spin. They just hand you the keys, tell you to have fun and you can drive pretty much wherever you want as long as the car is back before they close.
