Times have changed. The saleswoman didn't even bat an eyelash that three adult males were shopping for a king size mattress together. The other couple in the store were clearly lesbians and the same thing. I was thinking that maybe the mattress industry has always had the secret in side scoop into people lives and so nothing is new. It is kind of hard to pretend you aren't sleeping together when you are testing out a bed together.



We ended up going with some king size, visco memory form get up for ~$2000 with everything including tax, damn tax is expensive. It is called the Sealy Posturepedic TrueForm Visco 9"

I wish I had something to do with the Visco 9" in the title, but I don't - lol.

It seems like it has the potential to make sleeping nicer or worse. I really can't tell. Luckily, t gives us a 90 day return policy for trade in if we hate it. I think we will like it. They deliver it tomorrow and it better change my life considering it costs as much as a car I would have bought 5 years ago.

I don't understand how this can possibly be real but I saw it on omg blog and then decied it was worth posting here. freerice.com gives free rice to the United Nations feed the hungry campaign or something liek that if you win the word games on the site. I guess the advertisers donate grains of rice based on the number of correct vocabulry questions you answer.



I also foudn this video on omg blog - I guess it isn't just limited to that one beauty queen, it hit Kelly Pickler too

I love the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens They are warm. I have decided to become a member so that I have a reason to keep returning to the warmth.

I took a bunch of pictures of the plants. I really love my Nokia s7c camera. It is so compact and takes such nice pictures.

Tis little pink flower was so hello kitty.


This orange puff was so cute.


Inside this large plants was this tiny microcosm with a mini flower in it.


This pine is so nervous looking.


So was this plant.


I kicked (e:flacidness)'s butt in checkers.


This cactus looked so mean.


This leaf is so giant


The banana plant was flowering.




These cacti look like penises.


The main chamber in the front room is so high and makes a giant echo chamber.


Buffalo State was having an exhibit today with student ceramics. This one was labeled Two Faced Bitch.

I hate the new indian territory in the middle of the city. Does anyone else think that is ridiculous?


They made the Casino look so awesome, lol. I hate them. I would say I hope it burns down but considering it looks 100% ribbed steel I doubt anything would happen.



We went to go eat at the city grill on Franklin but it was closed for a private party ;(

On the way back to the car I noticed these doors to the YMCA were covered in a disgusting amount of pigeon shit. I guess they never use them.







This one is for (e:hodown). It is a spot focaccia.


Can anything be more buffalo than a corned beef foccia. They have them at spot. Sounds like it should be served at McGuidos over by HSBC arena. That place, however, closed down.

We finally bit the bullet and decided to install a reverse osmosis water system in our house for drinking water in the kitchen. It involved a couple hours of plumbing but the water tastes really good and it comes out way faster than the hook to the tap system we had before.

This is what happens to pipes that make me angry. I guess I do have an anger management issue. This led to us buying a new normal faucet as well. I like the new one way better than the old one anyways.


Here is the tank that goes under the sink.


Here is the filtration unit before

and after hookup


And the final happy tap with no faucets. $159 for the system, $100 for the new faucet, hour hours of plumbing later.
