So by now you know of just some of the crap that has completed our lives here at the Matthews house over the past month and a bit. I have covered the reality and the move so here is the next chapter in the saga.

Not that there was any way to avoid it, but I am sure you have noticed my lack of postings here on the Catharsis the past couple of weeks.

One of the funnest parts about having a ton of people help you move is that several people get to see what you have accumulated. Luckily I don’t have a porn collection for anyone to find. You should have seen some of the looks that I got when I was taking my guns out to the car. Not to mention how uncomfortable one of the good church going guys was when he found the pistol under my mattress.
Among the fun things that people wondered over were the buffalo. Wait, not the buffalo. That is just a picture suggested by Zemanta with no discernible link to my article. Actually the thing people wondered about were my Kettlebells.
