I’ve had a big ole knot in my back since last week due to the piece of crap mattress we have. Do NOT, NOT, NOT buy anything from the Original Mattress Factory! They totally suck. This mattress is 1 year 4 months old and it’s broken down on one side and the “good” side gives us both back and neck pain. I just wrote them a scathing email for what good it will do. I think we’re going to buy a new frame and see if that helps, so I can add another $150 to the expense that this mattress has cost. Bastards! [edit 8/9/05: the frame cost $35 and I’ve retracted my warning about OMF. 2nd update 6/09: Eh, Original Mattress Factory stuff still sucks. We got the bottom of the line Serta and it’s tons better. -A]
I got bitched at for baiting the trolls… Yes, this site is public, but so’s your phone number and you wouldn’t want me calling and hanging up all day, would you? Same thing. Just because my site is public doesn’t mean that you should spend your spare time harassing me. Is that not simple common courtesy?
::sigh:: Apparently not.
In other news, I’ve had to raise our bird feeders another 1.5 feet to keep Bernie from eating all the finches. Now they are so tall that I have to take them apart to get to the feeders. I’ve also got a couple of female ruby throated hummingbirds buzzing around.
We’re getting ready for our jaunt to Richmond, VA this weekend. It’s gonna be GREAT! I can tell you that I’m SO ready for a short weekend getaway. [update: Richmond didn’t happen. -A] I’m so sick of people right now I could puke. The list of people who are on my last nerve is probably longer than my arm, with the aforementioned ones at the top of the list. Grrr. I need a break!
I hope everyone has a great time at Crescent City Con! We are sorry to miss the festivities, but DragonCon is far more important to us!
My Corpse Bride costume adventure has begun. I’ve located several wedding dresses, but unfortunately my fat ass has not been able to wear an 8 for quite some time. There seems to be a large number of sized 6 and 8 wedding dresses at the thrift stores! I did buy a veil and some extra netting today and my quest for a dress continues. I’ll also need a light blue long wig if anyone has one I can borrow. :-)
Well, off to work on a client’s site. Boooooring work. Bleh.
why oh WHY could you have not made this post a month ago. I just got my OMF mattress to the tune of 800 bucks a few weeks ago. It’s like brick…
sigh.
OH! Sorry! But, listen, I am sending you an email about what’s happened since that post. I hope you get over here to read the post I’m about to make concerning the mattress… It’s good news!
