OH GOOD LORD!
I thought it was super funny! I’m a 65 year old woman with a Very warped sense of humor! No need to apologize around me! I’m more likely to start and/or finish it... I like to think of it as maintaining my inner juvenile.

My “yucky” was intended in fun...

FYI. I'm a 61 year old woman with a pathetically juvenile sense of humor. Didn't mean to be creepy.

DONT WORRY!! so is SHE!
its all love here and sometimes we forget that we are not actually all close friends who get each other and we don't live in a world of no tone, affect or facial expressions
I'll vouch for the fact that "yucky" is hilarious
and WW is right in your wheelhouse for humor

Right? The exquisite part is we’re making this happen... heck, it’s almost like a no contest no rules project without parameters! That’s my kinda game!
Ahem... mine hasn’t died yet.

I had a few that blasted too, but in no way does it detract from the fireworks!
An aside...tomorrow a freight truck is going to show up at my house and leave a 138 lb package in my driveway. This is podangis's doing. I didn't have room for her in my wardian case, so I decided I'd build an orchidarium to hold her and some friends. So, me being me....ordered a GINORMOUS vivarium and tomorrow it arrives. I think that podangis flowered today to thank me in advance for her new house.
How do you get a 138 lb pallet out of your driveway and into your house? Especially when the contents are a glass box?

Every gardener in the world needs a 500 pound / 230kg hand truck:

On the assumption that "some assembly is required" open the box, move the individual parts one at a time. (My solution to IKEA furniture, greenhouse, etc.) If it comes completely assembled, the hand truck and a strong friend.

Unfortunately this comes all in one piece except for its lightweight lid. I think I'm going to have to wing it until it arrives tomorrow and see if the driver is willing and able to help a bit. If not, then I'll be making a plan B.

Once I get the pallet open, the vivarium only weighs 100 lbs.

My husband will be the strong friend. Although he's not feeling particularly friendly about this.
