Top Ten Things to Change in My Home

In response to my aunt's blog about top ten things to Prest-O Change about her home which mostly included getting new things and upgrading to practical conveniences, I would like to post my impractical conveniences which I have probably because I am still at an age where I can pretend that anything is possible and have not quite hit reality.

1. A self cleaning Home--this includes dusting itself, doing any dirty laundry, folding it, putting it away, vacuuming, refinishing the wood floors, scrubbing the walls and floors. Some people call this a maid but personnally I don't want an actual person seeing how messy things can get.
2. A Monet for my dining room.
3. An electric fire place on the wall that separates the kitchen and living room.
4. I would like to turn our carriage shed into a guest house.
5. I would like to impose a house law that the only video games allowed are those provided on Wii sports and Wii fit.
6. I would also like to impose a house law that the only music allowed would be country and classical music. Classic rock allowed before 8:00 p.m. and of course holiday music allowed when appropriate.
7. The kitchen, guest bedroom, dining room, and living room all need painted tranquil, relaxing hues.
8. A complete renovation of the upstairs bathroom including new flooring, a new claw-footed tub, and a new sink
9. Seal the basement to have it refinished and undestroyed by flooding.
10. Get an energy efficient furnace and perhaps install some skylights.


P.S. Presidential debates were completely won (once again) by Team Obama.

Quick Funny Story

We had early voting on my college campus. I did not participate because I have already requested an absentee ballot from my own county, but the Campus Democrats did not think that was a good enough reason to hold off on casting my ballot on that day. I believe it was Campus Democrat approach number 853 that sent me over the edge and I threatened "if one more of you tries to get me hug the guy in the donkey suit or tries to persuade me to vote early I am going to march in there and vote a straight Republican ticket." Apparently word got around because that was the last time I was approached all day. Of course, I could never vote democrat for the a certain representative anyway because the guy looks exactly like a child molester from the '70's and he happens to be one of many idiots.
