what do the following items have in common?

• sunscreen
• vision board
• coat hangers
• electric mixer
• bruce pearl bobble head
• diorama of john craig’s fort
• bug spray
• race car
• basket of lavender

they all live in the above-pictured laundry room of andrea and evoke the following questions:

1. where is the laundry in this supposed laundry room?
2. did your vision board include the firing of bruce pearl?
3. do you make your own lavender-scented bugspray and sunscreen using your upright mixer? if not, you should (in all of your spare time).

happy weekend, folks! make many messes. take pictures of them. then leave them behind and have fun. the reality project is depending on you.

perhaps the funniest thing about this recent submission to the reality project  is that it came with no accompanying explanation:

 i will now offer you the only plausible rationalization for natalie’s edgy little menagerie :

an oafish teenager, trapped in a middle-aged man’s body, was robbing a florida grocery store in search of the perfect tv dinner. witnesses say he was wearing a tan shirt bearing the image of a muskrat and holding a brown plaid umbrella, while peering at the contents of the store freezer through a paper towel roll scope. the suspect proceeded to a nearby beach-side condo to charge his phone, drink a beer, change into a green shirt, deodorize, and microwave his lunch. when the unsuspecting renters returned to the condo to reapply sunscreen and suction out their 8-month-old’s nostrils, they came face-to-face with the bandit. they put a pot of water on to boil and were discussing the best way to season thief stew when the suspect fled the scene.

typical case of arrested development.
