Come on over, I'll make lunch!

Be very wary if, on a work day, someone calls you up and says "Come on over, I'll make us lunch!" I have just learned that there are many hidden meanings in such a innocent cover.

Rach-o, The Bean and I were just gonna hang around yesterday, when KatoChanel calls and wants to see if we want to come over and have lunch. Sure! And like, it was mentioned that like maybe, if there's time, she could sort of use our help to move a couch. No big deal though. BUT, (and its a big but) we walk in, and all the furniture has been moved from the living room. It's made clear that not only does the couch need moved, it needs moved downstairs, AND the new couch is being delivered at 4:30. Awesome.

I suppose that here i should mention 2 very important things:
1. The house is built like a dollhouse, as in, the people who built it must have been "little people,"
2. That to get the couch (36in wide) downstairs it has to be taken through the kitchen, down the hall, out the back door, down the stairs, and in through the downstairs door, which happens to be 33 1/2 in with THE DOOR TAKEN OFF THE HINGES.

Riiiight. You do the math. All I can say, is that The Neighbor, Katochanel & Rach-o did a (literally) Bang-up job, and I spent the rest of the afternoon spackling the walls.

And for future reference, ALWAYS MEASURE before you order new furniture, because I don't even want to get into the trouble the movers were in trying to get the new couch in the house. We took 2 doors off the hinges as well as had a decent amount of spackling to do in the hall, BUT THANK THE SWEET BABY JESUS the new Avocado paint job did not get scratched or I think the man of that household may have (rightfully so) had a heartattack in our very presence.

I think that when all was said and done and we were headed home only 1 hour past Ellie's bedtime, that we helped to avert disaster and the possibility of divorce paperwork being filed. LMAO. Oh, 'cause I forgot to mention that we also built an IKEA bookshelf in about a 6x6x6 1/2 foot space. CAN YOU FEEL ME NOW?

If Katochanel did not know it before, she knows it now: WE FREAKING LOVE YOU AND ALL YOU DO FOR US.

Today, there really is no Other News.
