Discardian quote of the day

This was on Google this morning.  Fits with the Discardian season. 

"Every increased possession loads us with new weariness."  --John Ruskin

So true. Even my sparkly new laptop, on account of it being heavy. And hubby being too tricksy with the wireless network, so now my new computadora can't find it.

Aww. :( I just hate the new-computer-vs.-old-network blues.

so true

Hi, I followed you back from a comment you left about cradle cap.

I had to post because I love this quote! I especially feel this weariness after a visit to my in-laws. My MIL fills up the car with old stuff for my husband and new stuff for my daughter. I have a secret fear one of these days she's going to squirrel herself away in the trunk. - RainyPM at http://perfectnormal.blogspot.com/

Hi! Thanks for coming to visit, and commenting. Grandparents can be some of the worst offenders, I know, between wanting to spoil the grandkids "a little" and wanting to divest themselves of the stuff they've stored for their kids for 20 years....

Just remember, if she squirrels herself into the trunk, you've got a live-in babysitter! Parties every night for you and the hubby!
