Well, that’s one way to clean the closet

You know how I was bitching about having to clean my closet? Problem solved!
Here is one home organization tip you won’t find in Redbook: Simply have your home developer install an air conditioner with a drain smaller than an anthill entrance above your closet, wait four years for it to clog up, making it leak all over your closet carpet for days without your knowledge (because you were too busy avoiding the closet and the task of cleaning it. . . duh), so you are forced to fork over a thousand bucks to a carpet restoration company to rip up the carpet, along with your baseboards, and — this is where the Martha Stewart-esque organization system comes into play — dump the contents of your closet on your bed and floor to make room for the massive, heat-generating dehumidifier that must run for days to prevent mold and mildew, causing the temperature in your bedroom to spike to 100 degrees and rendering the clothes in your closet moot, anyway, because the only way to survive the Death Valley-like conditions is to go completely and utterly naked. (Or so my husband insists.)
Woo-hoo! Closet: CLEANED.

The Laughing Stork Home Edition: The House of Louis Vuitton

Why, I had no idea Louis Vuitton had launched a home collection! And they rolled it out in Mexico, no less. Interesting choice. Given the less-than-sanitary-looking neighborhood, I hope it comes with a dust bag.
