Getting creative.

I've checked everywhere, and the only place I've found to order a clothes line is online.

Evidently, that's offensive to the men in my family, who say, "We'll just build it ourselves."  

Well, I don't want to build it myself.  I don't want to buy the wood, and the hardware, and the nails, and the concrete.  I don't want to hammer stuff and dig holes.

So I decided that the hideous, monstrous, disgustingly heinous structure that is our garage could be made even more hideous by stringing a clothesline there.

Ghetto style.

Bryan and I went to the hardware store, and spent a whopping $5 on the supplies.  And then we gussied the garage up, and voila!  I didn't have to order anything online (which makes my wallet happy) and we did it ourselves (which makes everyone with a penis happy) and I can hang the clothes to dry, instead of drying them in the dryer (which makes me happy).

Everyone's happy -- except maybe the neighbors.  But they can suck it.

Your local hardware store doesn't sell them?

That's awesome! What's even cooler is Charlie's butt got in the shot!

Hey, what happened to all your flicker pics?

Nope -- we checked everywhere, not just locally. Pretty weird that no one seems to carry them anywhere, especially in summer!

I got mine at IKEA. Well, actually I got an IKEA wire curtain hanger on eBay. It was like five bucks.
