Thanks, buddy!

Dog and Llama is the bestest! I need to clean too. But so far it ain't happening.

That's why I declared an entire day for it--I'm gonna get distracted. For instance I'll take a freaking half an hour to post this update. :D :P

That llama is about a mile from my house--Benny and I didn't know that and Benny was not pleased. He tried to drag me away but I made him pose for a pic. Because I'm an asshole. ahahahahahahha!

Imma need some "after" pics, ya know. How else would we know that you actually did what you said you'd do? Are you cleaning yet?

Yes I AM cleaning. GAWD. ;D And yes I will post after pics. I will be held accountable. Blah blah Oprah bullshit, etc.

Wow - glad my name isn't Rosa!
Good Luck.

And that's Benny thinking 'my what a big dog...but I can take him!'

I'm right there with you.

Thank goodness it's only a 'Rosa clean the office' day. I don't clean my office, LOL.

I WISH I'd taken a before pic of the coffee stain on my carpet. (Knocked over two full cups of coffee and a full protein shake--all with my office chair on three different occasions. That's takes TALENT, friends.) Anyway, I ran the steamer over it with just plain water and it already looks better. It's still a good thing I"m not renting though. :/

I clean my office the same way I clean everything: wait til it gets so bad you can't even function and you're pulling hair out.

Whoever made that meme needs to work on their ellipses. They have issues and it's annoying the fuck out of me.

I need to do that to my house so bad and I've been procrastinating so so successfully. Good luck!

are you making any progress at all?

Hah, I love that, bad ellipses and all! A friend gave me a cute little plaque years ago. It said "housework makes you ugly". I see no reason to take chances. It could happen, I don't need help, LOL!

Good luck!! - My dull pedantic I starting to shake. Need help?

Now I feel embarrassed in comparison.

Tidiness is for people who are too lazy to look for things :D .

*relieved sigh*
Now if you excuse me, I gotz to go thank my mamacita for naming me Marcie ;)

YES, MOM, JEEEEEEZ. lol (you're way too young to be my mommy.)

However I did stop to go to Goodwill with my dad. He needs a chest of drawers. He didn't find anything but I found a table where the leaves come up so you can make it a big table or a small table. Perfect for my office! That Ikea table I have in here is too big for the space.

That was a close one! For me too, I was supposed to be Danielle.

Dude, don't be. I am a seriously messy person. SERIOUSLY.

YES! I'll give you a place to stay, help your site see and cook you Italian food! And brownies!

I'll meet you at the airport. We'll go straight to Powell's. It's a bookstore the size of a city block!

I'm in. I'll even bake chocolate chip cookies to fortify us for the trip.

YAY! We'll need it. I have to admit, I feel like a wuss saying this, but sometimes I get overwhelmed in there. SO MANY BOOKS. But they have a coffee shop too...caffeine is important.

Yes, very important.

Your books are all straight all ready, I see a bright future ahead of you :D

My BFF always comments on how I'm a slob but I get pissed off when I see books out of order. It's true. :D

You may think so but you might be wrong... ;)

So? Success or no?

When I'm forced to tidy it's never okay to just put a book on a shelf, the books have to be arranged, given attention, occasionally browsed. The rest of the room, less important ;)

That is my trap. I get so very easily sidetracked by more interesting things.

Oh, Sandra, when are you going to learn I'M NEVER WRONG?! You're 6 years older than me. You get to be the bossy big sister who think they're the boss of me. BUT YOU'RE NOT. ;D

Rosa, really wrote: "You're 6 years older than me. "

No fucking way. Really?

Jennifer☠Pher☠ wrote: "So? Success or no?"

Yes and no. I got started, got distracted buying a different table for my office (that black on from Ikea is too big for the space) and then I was still working at it in the afternoon but slooooooowly.

So International Rosa Clean & Rearrange Your Freakin' Office Day is now a 2 day event! Woo hoo! But only for Rosas who didn't finish yesterday. Those who did can bask in their smugness. The bitches.

I'm really good at separating MY books from books I sell. Yes, occasionally I'm like ooooh what's this? So I just buy it from myself.

I know, I sound like a teenager don't I? I feel like I'm somewhere between 15 & 25. But I'm gonna be FUCKING FORTY this year.

Don't worry it will never change. Half the time I feel like I'm the same age as my niece and nephews who are teenagers. And I'm older than you.

I'm catching up. In less than a week I get to be officially not old.

It's you're birthday sooooooooooooooooon! Yay!

Okay, I've got my 80s music mix on. TIME TO ORGANIZE AND PICK SHIT UP OFF THE FLOOR. NO I DO NOT MEANT LITERAL SHIT.

Rosa ... Just a minor detail; What city is it? LoL!!
Lucky you with such a bookstore (Our Swedish is pretty lean on exciting reading, if you do not want crime)

NO FUCKING WAY!!!! Then again, I don't feel my age either. I got stuck at 29 many years ago. Except for my knees. Those feel my age.

Know what you mean, dude. I just took the dog for his second long walk of the day (HE STILL WON'T FUCKING SHIT) and I'm done. That's it.

I suspected... I need to move. I have to visit that beautiful waterfall (remember?) over there with you too. :))))
