This post is from from my other blog here We evicted the old sofa today (and added some scratches to our bamboo floor, sadly. It opted not to go gently into that good night). It was an 8-foot-long sleeper, and it weighed a ton. Two moves ago, as our moving guys struggled to maneuver the thing up a set of apartment stairs, my well-used old sofa--the cradle of my infancy (and my childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, come to think of it) was disrespectfully referred to as a "motherfucker." We managed to heave the old thing out the front door without a single curse, but that's probably because all our breath was being used to grunt. The Final Egress of the SofaWe somehow wrangled the beast into Matt's trailer. He'll be taking it to his folks' property at Dale. Two's going down, but ain't but one's coming back. I believe it will be a gory scene of dismemberment and immolation. We're gonna take a little ride...The new hotness is supposed to arrive this Tuesday. Farewell old sofa. |
