New Bookshelf

"Some Assembly Required" my ass!

Two and a half hours later, I'm covered with sweat, my back is killing me and my right nut is trying to escape into my body. After all that I figured out that I have to go through all this again because it only holds about a third of all the fucking books I have around here.

The great thing is all the money I saved. It cost $50 unassembled and $100 fully assembled. As I charge my clients $200 an hour for my services, I figure this bastard cost me around $550. That's not even counting having to go out and buy a new screwdriver because either my father, my housekeeper or CrazyCatLady has hidden mine. All this plus, any medical bills for back and scrotal pain that will be required after putting together two more of these mothers.

  1. Are these the ones for home or office? Because if it is for the office, Bran and I noticed that we need a bookcase too...

  2. Check with the painting supplies. The screwdriver may have been used to open paint cans or remove faceplates.
    Also, as of this Friday, I will no longer be "gainfully" employed, and I will finish the painting job!
