Once again busy with a big client update
Happy Birthday Mom
Today is Mom’s birthday she is a grand woman in her late 50’s and she means the world to me. As you get older and have your own kids, you begin to realize how much your parents mean to you, and would do just about anything in their means for you, even at the age of 35 like myself. Thanks for all you done, and I love you.
Let me tell you about my day
I believe I told you about my newest client, a 50 year old stroke victim, who was screwed over by the people she was living with and basically dropped on our doorstep. Well Malach managed to get her a apartment in one of the local elderly/disability housing complex on rather quick notice. Today, me and a co-worker moved her. Not something we normally do, but because of our Christmas program, everyone else in way busy, and we had the morning free.
So, this woman has nothing. Fortunately one of our residential programs was closing an apartment, and offered us any of the furniture from that apartment for my client. Nice. We checked it out, and decided on a couch, some living room tables, a dinette, and a bed.
So we went in early this morning, got the van, and headed out to the site to pick up the furniture. Now, this residential program is located in a New Bedford tenament. If you have never been to New Bedford, let me describe the typical three family. Most of them sprung up in the early to mid 1900’s. They are the majority of housing in the city, and packed in tight with one another. Here are a few pics of what a typical part of New Bedford looks like.
Needless to say, space is at a premium in these babies, and the stairways tend to be narrow, steep, spiral like, so moving large pieces of furniture down and up to third floors pretty much sucks.
So my co-worker and I get everything out pretty easily, and save the couch for last. Now the couch, looks to be in great condition. So, we try and pick it up. WOW. This it the heaviest freakin’ couch I have ever lifted that is not a sofa bed. Also looking more closely, this couch in a pre 1970’s jobber that has been upholstered, so needless to say, very solidly put together. So, we hump the thing out the back to the back stair, which was slightly wider than the front. It takes some twisting and turning, some heaving and shoving, and about 20 minutes and a number of scraped walls later, we get the thing down to the 1st floor.
Ecstatic, we try to get it out the back door, around the corner of enclosed back entrance, and down the back steps, and the thing won’t go out the enclosed back entrance. No matter what we do, or how we turn it, there is just not enough give in the couch to bend out the door. The legs are molded to the couch, so they won’t come off, and I basically need 4 more inches. The guy with me is also not as strong as Malach so he is struggling. We take off the back door and the back screen door, still no luck.
Ok, so luckily all our clients take up the three floors of the building, and the one, whose door we are now blocking with the couch, Malach has worked pretty extensively with. So, I knock on her door and call her name. She answers after a few minutes, in her sleeping garments. Now this girl is a former member of the Latin Kings, and looks like every gang chick you have ever seen on any documentary, she’s cool though.
Immediatley the smell of pot comes from the apartment, a real no no, but I was stuck and we weren’t going to address this at this moment.
Malach: “Hey ______, how’s it going, you see, were stuck (she starts to laugh), and we were wondering if we could cut through your apartment with this couch and go out the front door.”
______: “Sure Malach, Hey Candy, get you clothes on!” She yells.
Candy? Her girlfriend (wink, wink) there too? I have never met Candy, just heard all about her. So, we pick up the beast of a couch, cut completely across her apartment to the front, say hi to Candy, and squeak the couch out the front door.
Later on, I delivered 8 bicycles to various clients around the city, part of our Christmas program.
Fun DAY! Just not for my co-worker. Little tired though.
The Celtics
Good game with the Pistons, and stupid foul by Tony Allen, and they lose it. It will be interesting to see their next meeting. It was fun, like an old school Celtics Piston Matchup.
Tuna anyone?
It is nice to see the Tuna working the old switcheroo again.
RIP Ryan Gracie
Weird Death. I sure hope this ain’t another version of the Von Erich Curse.
What will you tell your kids about Jaime Lynn Spears?
Well Malach will tell his: “That’s what happens when Southern Trailer Trash get famous”
And you know what else?
I rest my case.
Damn
It just ain’t a good year to be Santa Claus I guess?
I suppose . .
The past few weeks haven’t been good with cops and their guns either.
Again . .
People get money to study stuff like this? And how does this help the world? And ever more, why is this FRONT PAGE NEWS on MSNBC.com?
Ohh Vlady
So what was it? The shirtless photos? The Cold War mentality? The pouting lips?
Malach’s Shane MacGowan Video of the Day
I am Malach and a woman’s got me drinking
People who have December b-days rock!
Happy B-Day to your mom.
That is one of my favorite Shane videos and Johnny Depp hardly looks like himself in that one.
Great video and song!
I was an anthropology major in college. During a winter (one month long) semester, I took a seminar on non-human primates (monkeys). Did you know that monkeys masturbate? A LOT?? It seems like every day we were watching film of yet another species of monkey wanking off. I decided I would stick to observing the human type of primate from then on…
Happy Birthday to your mom! And that’s a great Holiday story about the couch, with a happy ending.
So the Fish are gonna be run by the Tuna? That’ll make Pats/Miami games extra interesting.
The only thing you needed to make it an old school Pistons-Cetics matchup would be Robert Parish taking a minute away from beating his wife to come to the game.
When you were carrying the couch up the stairs, did you try yelling “PIVOT!!!” like Ross on Friends?
It worked for him.
Kudos on the charity stuff, my friend. You’re a better man than I.
(not a tough stretch)
And thanks in advance for posting pics of your pothead gangbanger lesbian chicks.
Happy Birthday to your mom.
as I said before free sex is just about time and a second of stupidity to turn people’s life around.
Well lol highway i-35 is what Isaiah meant?
well no matter what, I am glad they are walking over it with a purpose of spreading the word, who wants to listen come the ones who don’t don’t…
uhmmmm In the world is taught that doing something good to your brother makes you a good man, but in God’s gospel Charity without faith doesn’t count or the other way around.
Because this is what happens when charity is not acompanied by faith…. a night club owner say he is being good because he gives food to the poor… but hello??? what is he doing F-ing the minds of men and women encouraging them to do what God dislike… what he builts with his hands he destroy it with his feet.
Calling good evil and evil good hhhju.
thanks for the comments about my mom’s b-day! yeah it’s fun to do silly shit to old people! hahah happy birthday to your mom as well!
i’m sorry about your gparents, but that is cool that you had similiar experiences. (reflection is a funny thing, i say cool, but i’m sure when we were kids, we didn’t think it was soo cool!)
that couch story reminds me of an episode of “friends” but yeah, it sounds really cool helping people out like that. makes me wish we had just a bit of extra money to do somehting like a coat give-a-way or something..
Happy Birthday Mom, and I know now where to refer my clients
Happy B-Day to Malach’s Mom!!
I’m going to second the request for gang-banger lesbo porn!
Do you remember a show called “Chimp T.V.”? I wish they’d bring that back, only the dirty edition.
I applaud your charity, Malach. You do what we all wish we were capable of doing for others!
Happy Birthday MMom! Well done on the move. How’d Candy look?
Happy Birthday O’ Great Spawner of Malach!
Loved the story of your furniture moving. I hate moving myself, but I love hearing about other people doing it. I’m evil that way.
