bed skirts are evil

i 'installed' two bed skirts today and i have advice for anyone who might want to perform this task in the future:

1) don't take a shower first
2) hire a professional or locate a burly man
3) don't let the mattress get the upper hand; show it who is boss

i may have recently gained 10 lbs of girth from extreme tex-mex consumption, but that doesn't by any means indicate that i have more strength. when i got up this morning, i didn't think i'd be the loser in a mattress-wrestling contest today.

i know all this is very fascinating, but i'm home-bound today waiting on our new wine refrigerator to be delivered. mr. sanders is VERY excited about our new appliance. and just like in the states, the 'jashanmal' store where we purchased the fridge gave me a time window for delivery -- 8am to 5pm. very informative.

so, i'm hanging out -- still trying to fix my iphone. i've given up on the attempt to unlock it and have restored it to its factory settings. now i'll start the jailbreak and unlock all over again. i've been f&cking with this damn phone for over 7 hours now. and you people thought i was an i.t. geek. i am; i'm just not a programmer. here are some of the instructions as discovered on google for unlocking the iphone:

1) ssh into iphone with winscp
2) use terminal with wget

ooooohhhhh, ok. if only they'd said "wget" in the first place. i totally get it now. truly, i'm not sure what language these uber-geeks are speaking.

american gladiators is on tv here. hard to believe. there's porn on in the gym too.

i watched 127 hours on my frankfurt flight. dude drank his own urine and cut his arm off. entertainment on airplanes has come a long way. there was a commercial for a gatorade-like product called "pocari sweat". its supposed to replenish fluids you lose on the airplane. who doesn't want to drink a beverage with the word 'sweat' in the title. sounds tasty; bring it.

the heat has arrived here in a.d. early march and its already in the 80's. it feels like its 180. please make it stop.

the maid just asked me if i was russian; what tipped her off - my eastern european accent?

wine cooler has arrived; gotta run to pick up something to stock it with.

love and rebellious bed linens,

tricia
