Continuing the discussion of friends and favors.

I feel like a dick for not helping by bestest friend move a few years back. I just really hate moving people because of helping a single individual move no less than seven times (that I can think of). Sucks, but one person can ruin it for everyone.

I agree helping a person move like once in 5 years is fine. However, if they keep moving that just gets obnoxious.

I don't mind helping people move. But there are times I wish I were elsewhere. One guy hadn't even started packing yet. We did not finish that day and I did not return the next day.

Don't mind helping someone move, but I really really hate helping someone clean, especially if it's a major yuck fest. Once helped a friend clean his grandmothers house and it hadn't been really cleaned in years....eeeeew

Helloooo!
I haven't posted here in a long while, how is everyone?

On moving...I'm not exactly the greatest friend, but if someone really needs help and they ask me, I'll usually help them out. However, if it's something that they can very easily do themselves, I'll probably tell them to deal with it.

Maybe because it was just the one time and she was my bestest friend, but I had no problem helping her move. It got a little stressful sometimes but for the most part it was alright.

Cleaning, same thing. If its the bff, we'll have fun no matter what. We even joke that we could be put in some turkish prision cell and we'd still have a good time.

Heh, Nooo I'm not. But I'm a weirdo about my "helping a friend" For example, I'd rather help someone move than give rides. I HATE giving people rides. If I don't have to do the driving around, I'll help you do whatever you want!

I'm with you about giving people rides. I hate driving unless no one else is in the car with me. Others tend to complain about stuff like my driving skills, or my music or whatever...

ponder: why are babies so gross?

A friend just had a kid and blogged about the funtastic delivery room experience. He said when they weighed the kids he peed all over the scale. Which made me wonder if a kid pees while he's still in the womb. Sure enough they do. They swim around in their own pee and drink their own pee in there. GROSS! So, when you hold that baby for the first time you're really holding a kid that has been marinated in pee for months.

Dear nature,

You're broken. Fix it!

Sincerely, Zeek
