Lucky Day



This is one of those times where you have to make the finger sign for "three" with both hands, and place them on either side of your open mouth to spell "WOW". Wow. I ran across this on "my lucky day" (obvious). In case the photo isn't clear enough, it's a pimped out mobile home outfitted to resemble the space shuttle. THE SPACE SHUTTLE. Mobile home. Have you EVER thought those two should ever be uttered in the same sentence? Neither has anyone else besides This Guy.
To round out the luckiest day ever, I just about shat my pantalones when, next door, I peeped this:
and I'm not joking. I thought to myself, "where there goes the neighborhood". Then I thought, man, these people are really proud since they TITLED their residence. But I got home and googled "The Orange Show" and discovered it's a folk art museum(?) of sorts. I guess I'm the last to know, and obviously lacking in my Houston culture knowledge.
I wish it wasn't a well patronized destination. I was much more enjoying the thought of imagining what kind of eccentric person could live in a place like that.
And have Mr. Space-Super-Fan as a neighbor.

THIS is "tidy"

It's like when you see a great mountatintop view, and even if you have a panoramic camera, you can never capture what it really feels like to actually be there...such is the case with this lady's house. It's not possible for you to accurately imagine JUST HOW MUCH CRAP was in every. single. inch. of this house. When I told Miss McCountryClutter that I would be needing interior photos, she replied, "oh good, i'm glad I cleaned up." And she was serious.
