once in a lifetime opportunity. don't miss out!

are you excited about this post? don't answer yet.... wait for it... ok, answer.... NOW!

i am offering you (and no, i don't care who you are or if we've ever met or talked or commented on each other's blogs) the opportunity to help me move this weekend. saturday to be exact. around 11:30 am AST. this is something that doesn't come around very often. "the chance to move doesn't come around very often?" you ask? of course not. i know better than that. i am, as you know, highly intelligent (thought don't know exactly where i fall in t's hierarchy of smartness). what i'm talking about is the chance for YOU to have ME owe you a favor. that's the once in a lifetime opportunity. and all it takes is a few hours of potentially back-breaking work and hundreds of trips up four flights of stairs. but, in the words of the great (but fictional) vito corleone, i know how to repay a favor, and that's something everyone should experience at some point in their life.... of course, that will only happen if you help me move because i'm pretty sure i mentioned earlier that this is quite possibly your one and only chance to have me owe you a favor.

i don't know why, but i'm feeling a sense of kinship with miss kendra... it must be the moving thing. though i get the impression she also knows how to repay a favor. but it's just a hunch.

Oh, I love it when I'm feeling Miss Kendra's kinship! It's so nice and smells like cookies.

Wait. That's not what you meant, is it.

Well, anyhoo, I hereby volunteer to help you move if you provide a means of transporting me to Monkeytown back to Fredtown on Saturday and pay me in homemade ice cream.

Oh, and you are definitely smarter than the backdoor to my house. Definitely. Probably. But maybe.

that's one of the nicest things you've ever said to me. maybe not... but as far as i can remember it is.

and i'm not sure how to respond to your conditional offer to help me move. i appreciate the willingness, but resent the conditions. i'll just say thank you but am unfortunately unable to meet your transportation request. if only i owned a private jet... or a matter transporter. yeah... a matter transporter. that has so many other great uses.
