Mega Maid

When my ex & I moved in together back in 1996, our first joint purchase was a vacuum cleaner from Target. If I remember right, Jason came w/ us & then we went to the movies. It was our 1st of many trips to the Ann Arbor Target on Ann Arbor Saline Rd. We even had to call for directions... funny considering how often I go there & support the child labor that goes into so many of their products. Not funny that I'm so willing to buy cheap products from South East Asia, but funny that I didn't know where it was. That vacuum has been on the fritz for a while now, but I've been using it none-the-less because I wasn't up on the idea of shelling out the $$$$ for a new one. Not that we paid much for the first one, I think it was only $39.99, but I could always think of better things to spend it on... beer, books, whiskey, strippers, etc. Well, I went to Target yesterday & bought a new one, a Dirt Devil Jaguar Feather Weight Bagless Upright. It's fucking sweet! (And it was only $59.99. I remember when our first vacuum was going through rubber belts pretty quickly & the guy at the vacuum store told me that I should get a really good one that will last, you know, spend $600.00 on a vacuum. Hell no, mother fucker! 40 bucks for 10 years; if I can get 10 years out of this one too, I think I'll be doing pretty well. After I put it together, I cleaned the purple room and my bedroom and filled the bagless filth receptacle. I didn't even do behind the chairs, TV, or dresser yet: just the main open part of the floor. I couldn't believe what a difference it makes. It even feels different when you walk on the carpet now. I'm off to vacuum upstairs and to get behind all the furniture. I'm so excited.
