Skymall never fails me.

Dog. Poop. Vacuum.

Wait, wait…before you puke – think it over.  It’s approximately the size of a leaf blower (that’s what she said) and it can take down three lbs of the stinky stuff in a single bag-load (wait…that’s what she said, AGAIN.)

I’ve done the math.  It’s roughly 8 lbs of combined vacuum and feces.  If you can handle that, then you can clean up after Fido literally without having to get within feet of the excrement.

Please…discuss.

In other news – it apparently hailed only on my house today.

Here’s me thinking I’m being all clever and subversive ~

And then @KathyLB was all:

And a bunch of other people confirmed that no…in fact…it was not hailing ANYWHERE ELSE IN LA.

You guys – Scott was a mile away at his Grandfather’s house, and he didn’t even see so much as a drop of rain let alone hail.   I was totally freaked out.

And then @jensch1288 tweeted aloud(ish?) the truth that was chilling me to my very core.

I mean…there was that ONE aluminum can I tossed in the garbage last week.

But anyway – I bet you guys all thought I was crazy.  But I’M NOT CRAZY SO I VIDEOTAPED IT.  SEE?  HAIL.  TODAY.  ONLY ON MY HOUSE.

(Ugh those dogs are such assholes barking at the hail while Dee was napping.)

It is going to take a record amount of xanax to put me to sleep after that one.

Oh, and have you seen THIS?
