I'd like to know where you got this artwork! I'm looking for something like this for my master suite. Thanks!

Since I usually exercise pretty close to bed time, I usually have a chocolate milk and maybe a bowl of cereal if I'm STARVED. But usually, I'm good until morning, when I want to eat ALL OF THE THINGS.

@chucka I thought the same thing! We have a (thankfully, un-vinyl-sided) Victorian rowhouse in the Burgh, and this looks like many around our neighborhood.

I thought I was the only one who detected the beginning of a loop in white noise machines! o_O

A fan works much better (we have one with a "white noise" setting on it)... plus a fan is better for me when my body temperature spikes in the middle of the night.

So, where does the city of Pittsburgh fit into your restructuring of these Daily Scavengers? (please don't say Midwest). :)

Laughing with @Arkay. My one cat comes RUNNING any time I have a cinnamon variety of cereal. It's so weird because I thought cats couldn't detect sweet. I mean, HE WILL FIGHT ME for the bowl.

The elevator in our apartment building has shaken the 10th floor (on which I live) almost as bad as an earthquake. Scared the poop out of me.

Also, the outlet in the bathroom is in the middle of the mirror -- not dead center, thankfully, but annoying, nonetheless. Also, you can't plug anything into the top receptacle; it will fall right out.

Use movers for all the heavy lifting (and driving).

Save the friends for an unpacking party. Complete with beer and pizza. ;)
