would you believe…?
saw this (now vintage) ad
from my younger days
and wondered
how many of you still owe columbia house the $1.00?
i keep waiting for someone to come to the door
looking to take back my records or cassettes.
or the dollar that i never sent in.

“both my parents worked, so i was home alone a lot, and i would listen to their records.
they belonged to the columbia house record club, so they had records!”

goofing off.
this is someone else (who is not me)
goofing off to celebrate one holiday,
while actively ignoring the clutter of the other holiday.
—
how incredibly lucky
that right after i realized it is
‘clutter awareness week’
i found out it is also
‘international goof off week’
so i decided to go all in on the goof off celebration.
i’ve never been one to shy away from honoring a holiday
but i can only spread myself so thin.
happy holidays to those of you who celebrate one or both.

the pitch.
brilliant pitch on our local townie site:
FREE SNOW SHOVELING CLASS: This Thursday Feb 3rd, I will be holding a FREE snow shoveling class at my place. Come and join the class and learn about the proper ways to shovel!
Reviewed techniques will include the scoop and throw method, the down and push method (AKA the plow technique) as well as the upside down scraping technique.
Don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity to enhance your snow lifting techniques without throwing your back out! I will provide the driveway to ensure your training is conducted in the most life-like situation. I only ask that you bring your own shovel.
PM me for additional details and times. Spots are limited and handled on a first come first served basis. Hurry, don’t delay!
as always, i loved the responses and they did not disappoint:
Is this for credit or just a certificate program???
Is this one of those Huckleberry Finn/ Tom Sawyer type classes where you have us shovel for you??
Now That’s What I Call marketing baby! Makes me want to get a shovel and throw on the parka and Boots!
Yes my place as well for the master class!
After can we repaint the fence?
You stole my idea!!!!
Now, why didn’t I think of that!!
Best AAT snow post EVER!

insider exclusive – behind the scenes backstory of ididnthavemyglasson.wordpress.com:
before each and every time i post a blog
i am subjected to the scrutiny of my photo editorial board
who can be
exacting and my most challenging critics
or
supportive and my most passionate champions
often made to defend my choices
i am never sure how it will go.
