DOMESTIC GODDESSES HALP

Apr 23, 2010 09:16

So, in the grand tradition of men whereever, TIG has washed a tissue into his favorite woollen jumper. The result has been predictably tragic. I have confiscated the offending garment for consultation with The Oracle (aka J-gal, who is flying in for the weekend tomorrow morning YAYS ELEVENTY SQUARED). But I would be remiss in my Martha ( Read more... )

Wait, Dragons is back in Ireland? I didn't realize!

Flip a coin and pick a day, dude. Flip a coin and pick a day.

*facepalm*

Ah, yeah. *pats your shoulder*

The best bet on his jumper? Sticky tape. Just pat it down with masking tape, rewash it, then let it air dry to prevent too much fuzzing.

The best bet on TIG in general? Have fun, don't worry about tomorrow, and remember that when it's good, it's really good. :-)

Happy Show Day! (Sadly, my mother called ten minutes in, so I missed it. Now I have to wait for Boy to get home from work tomorrow. *sigh*)

I like your icon's solution, too. I can't really implement it for obvious reasons, but I like it.

TIG and I are a couple of fucking tools and I am managing my expectations accordingly. So far neither of us have killed the other, despite several close calls.

We'll putter along in this fractured habit and see what happens, I guess.

Thanks for the tip on the sweater. I'll give it a shot.

Honey, there are things we can get drunk off of besides that. Hee! Remember, in the last year, I have had one glass of shitty beer garden beer and one glass of wine. I'm not exactly supporting my alcohol industry either. *g*

And yep, just enjoy what you can. It may turn out to be a fairly destructive relationship, but that doesn't mean there isn't beauty in it, too. All I care about is that you're happy. Are you happy today?

You iz watching teh boys again? Maybe? Peeking through fingers over your eyes?

Didja happen to catch #100? I know Show has been disppointing to you these days, and I respect that, but I was curious about this ep. and what you thought of it.

pdragon76 April 24 2010, 00:38:53 UTC

I did. I didn't hate it. Parts of it really interested me. Parts of it still made me cringe.

Dean was awfully pretty. I do remember that much. :D

blackcat333_99 April 24 2010, 02:50:46 UTC

Dean's HAIR. OMG, the longer length he's been allowed to grow it out to. It makes me want to Do Things. /TMI

Also, that hint of a smile. Followed by The Wink.

Yeah, there are moments that are just breathtaking. Darn you, Jensen Ackles!

Damn it.... my cunning plan was that I would point you to all the other comments of your domestically enhance flisties and THEY would have the answer... my cunning plan had nothing about ME actually solving the linty problem... I plead 3 years of sleep deprivation...
Ok... here's all I've got. Packing tape. Use the sticky side and gently pat the sweater/jumper - yes you will get lint too, but at least you'll get the other shit too... It's worth a shot, right?

pdragon76 April 24 2010, 00:45:04 UTC

Packing tape has helped but not resolved.

But thank you for the tip! I think we're kind of flogging a dead horse here. *points to sweater sadly*

Sticky tape (or duct tape), or one of those brushes that gets animal hair out of furniture (it will grip the pills). But you're never going to be able to restore the original texture of the thread :-(

pdragon76 April 24 2010, 00:46:39 UTC

I'ma give the animal hair brushes a shot this weekend. :D Thank you! But yes, I think you're right about the texture. *grimaces*
