i have a ladder in my living room

yesterday was my birthday. i spent it in austin on business. and i had the opportunity to celebrate with my good friend, norm, and my bro and his girlfriend (the online bed-selling enterpreneurs). but i digress.

i'm a really good hinter. for the last few months, i have wanted a step ladder for the house. so imagine my surprise when i returned home to find that my wife and my puppy had given me a brand new step ladder, some grilling utensils, and a running shirt. bitchin'!

can't wait to break in the ladder this weekend when i put up our holiday lights.
