We just tend to live very much like, well...college students. I mean, we clean more, but generally we're always mid some project/reorganizing/something at the place is a mess and company comes round and we do a whirlwind cleaning, shoving things where they fit, etc. I know that's normal.
Still feels unfit for public viewing.
Reorganizing is the worst with two people sometimes. Especially when you prioritize your crap (which most of it is) differently. We purged a lot when we moved, and it still didn't seem like enough. We started shoving ***in the attic when we moved.
Getting rid of stuff does make you feel a lot better.
Is your wife the keeper of all the heirloom familial crap too? That sucks when parents start dumping all that on you. LOL!
EDIT: I think I'm going to be cremated, and they'll have to stick my urn in a coffin lined with china and crystal. *** me! So many generations of ***!

No. There's not a lot of that to begin with, but she's the middle child and the oldest lives down in NC near their mother AND has provided grandchildren. AND is married to the Methodist minister I've referenced. So...she gets to deal with that rubbish.
We do have too much stuff though. We live in a townhouse and while it's pretty spacious for what it is, we definitely need to purge some time soon.
well some good news to start the day! thanks, now beat it. your time here was too long anyway, & really you're just doing the right thing at this point.
to get the legendary stuff from there, do the queen's bounties that the robot gives you, then send me a message to come beat the mission you get afterwards. easy, peasy, japanese-y.
I was looking to go see that new dracula movie tomorrow and I come to find out it doesn't even come out for another two weeks... where's that god damn time machine when you need it?!?
I'm going to borrow Mag's raspberry beret and whine like a frenchman for a couple minutes... bear with me...or ignore the mountain of griping in the spoiler
In the glorious world of evil corporate business you learn to deal with a great many obstacles and perplexing intangibilities....
Have you seen the carpeted fields?... vast cubicle farms sprawled out across endless concrete and steel landscapes where workers toil their meaningless lives away surrounded by pictures of cats hanging from clotheslines with the captions reading "hang in there baby"
You can tell when you reach the different sections as they are separated by their trade's cliches "engineers do it with precision"... and so on and on and on and.... you get the gist....
far below on the factory floor an alarm bell sounds, one of the diabolical machines in sector three has failed to achieve maximum evil... phones ring and emails fly and minions fret. what is the terrible meaning of the alarm and who will suffer the consequences?....
Eventually they call me, the last evil machine repairman to survive the purges of the evil middlemen from middle earth. Once we were great throngs of well styled geeks, but our numbers were culled in the great wars of the nineties. Perhaps you are too young to recall and we don't have time to go into it now, so I'll skip to the end, where I stood alone a top a smoking pile of ruin, smoldering bodies too numerous for counting
and then eventually I brushed off the ashes and got back to work...
your problem is a very simple one, your machine is so old the men who made it are all dead, the company they built from their sweat and blood was sold into receivership after a nasty divorce, their lives were all ruined by drink and everyone they ever met all died with their balls on fire from colon cancer... the equipment was all sold to the chinese for scrap and all that remains is a scorched patch of concrete where a proud factory once stood.. here and there tiny weeds are poking up through the cracks as mother earth begins to reclaim the lands...
you need to buy a new machine.
years pass as solutions are debated, brochures and samples are requested and a never ending parade of salesmen pound against their shoreline hawking their wares.
when do they need the machine? a year ago
when will they buy it? a year from now
when will they want it delivered? a year before they needed it...
will anyone remember what it's for when it arrives?
no...
and SO we finally get to yesterday when I deliver the new machine they ordered after years of debate and quotes and samples and brochures and budgets and proposals and requirements and threats and crying and swearing and tears and emails and phone calls and faxes and text messages and coffee and doughnuts and misery and mechanical drawings and flow charts and schematics ...
and here is your new machine!!! <fanfare>
and then someone emerges from the foggy pits of IT dungeons and demands I sell it to them all over again.... and they demand it do things they never asked for and it have options they never considered and they cry and *** and whine and call their supervisors...
and then the supervisor comes down and I tell them all the same things, this machine was ordered to replace one that is broken, it works exactly the same way as the other one used to. It doesn't have wireless network connectivity or a psychic link to the group mind on the cloud because you DIDN'T ORDER IT THAT WAY you don't need it and it's not ever going to have it unless you spend sixty bucks on a converter and NO we aren't going to start the process all over again!
this is the machine you requested on a purchase order written in stone that took me two years to climb up the cursed mountain to retrieve. So *** you, go set up the PC like we told you two weeks ago and get the hell out of my face!
I call upon the dark powers to rise from the depths of hell and pull you back.... BACK TO THE PITS WITH YOU FOWL CREATURE!!!
BE GONE!!!
and eventually they run out of stupid things to say, get hungry for lunch and wander away
and then I can install the machine and test it out and run into problems and work sixteen hours and then drive home half asleep through construction traffic...
my hands are swollen and I feel like killing something...

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
