What will I turn to?
We are already starting the cleaning out process in preparation for the move. Part of me is enjoying it. But then there is the other part.
Arp has this tendency to look around the room and zero in on piles of my crap that he thinks should go. Today’s target was my collection of Martha Stewart Living magazines.
Here is my response, verbatum:
“Arp, when we are living on the Carribean Coast of Costa Rica, far from everything that I know, what exactly do you think I will turn to so that I don’t go crazy?! (Long silence) Martha Stewart!”
Arp told me that I should go and post that on our blog right now, and that if I was willing to proclaim that to the world, he would stop bugging me about it.
There you go, Arp.
(I’m now thinking about which of Arp’s annoying collections I should target next…)

Dammit. As a professional pest (ask my mom & dad), I like having something that I know easily irritates someone. Alas, I told Trish I’d stop bugging her about her needlessly large collection of Martha Stewart magazines that I doubt will make it to Costa Rica.
