I bought this lovely little T-shirt at fussy.org this week. It arrived in the mail Thursday, and I wore it to Bed Bath & Beyond today on a day off to run errands and lounge around reading and browsing the Internet (I looked here and here). I agree with the message printed on the shirt, but I would probably change it slightly to "writing honestly is the best revenge."
I ended up spending more than $200 at BB&B on everything from a mattress pad, a cutting board and a rubber spatula (it's sex night!) to a lint brush, a power strip (impulse purchase), a shower curtain and a vacuum cleaner - a glittery puke-green little Eureka that is bagless and weighs just 12 pounds. It also has this funky round handle and all the attachments I could ever want.
In the 16 months I have lived in this apartment, I haven't owned a vacuum cleaner and have been sweeping the low-pile carpeting with a broom. I vacuumed the second I got home - using the wand attachment to suction the baseboards and the little nook where the floor meets the wall - and ended up with a cannister full of dirt and hair after just 10 minutes. It was nasty. So, so nasty.
The funkiest little vacuum in all the land

Tools! That's the thing. It's all about the tools. You have to have the right ones.
LOVE the shirt!
I wore that shirt last night. I find that people are really drawn to reading it, and I am forever having to pull the strap of my purse aside so they can stare at my boobs.
I know what you mean. Someone else loved this shirt this morning, and I may have just snagged me a new man!
Go shirt!
I like the vacuum cleaner. It looks like it's got the typewriter cornered.
Sadly, the vacuum cleaner could kick the typewriter's ass any day of the week. Why do I keep an old typewriter on the floor of my kitchen? I don't know. It just seems like the place for it.
Work the shirt, sister!
