Daniel: Where's the laundry?
Eli: Huh?
Daniel: Don't get smart with me. Just tell me where it is. Let's get this over with.
Eli: Oh. Did you want to do my laundry?
Daniel: Eli. At least have the courtesy of not gently manipulating me into doing it. Just tell me where it is so I can get started.
A closet door was then opened. A nation's worth of dirty clothes came pouring out of it, filling the apartment. Daniel should really think twice next time he decides to stop doing my laundry for six months.
And now, your Pictures and Distractions.
With Kyle and Emily, participating in our weekly Survivor party without Brandt who took his Disney prince hair and went to Ireland for work. |
A friend took us to a speakeasy in Salt Lake City that has been preserved since the prohibition era and is apparently still kept a secret to some degree. |
Two of my adorable nieces wearing the same dress. I think it's still ok at this age. |
A mostly failed attempt at a selfie with the nieces. |

~It Just Gets Stranger
I think I speak on behalf of all of the Strangers when I say that we're a little offended that you didn't invite us to your Survivor party. Please don't let that happen again.
ReplyDeleteDaniel is so selfish. Did he expect you to do the laundry?!
ReplyDeleteQuestion.....Did you have enough clothes to not run out of clean ones for 6 months or did you wear dirty ones or just keep buying more? I routinely buy new socks just so I don't have to mate the huge basket of socks I already have even though they are clean......
ReplyDeleteOh and can I borrow Daniel to come mate my socks, they are clean he wouldn't have to wash anything...........
DeleteCan he come fold my laundry? It gets washed and dried, and then ends up in piles on the couch waiting to be folded. Mocking me every time I enter the room!
DeleteCash Cats is extremely disturbing.
ReplyDeleteJedi Cats wasn't that funny to me. Then flashes of it started playing in my mind about an hour later. Now I can't stop laughing.
ReplyDeleteYour hair looks fantastic in those pictures, Eli. What is your secret?
