so much for that
New vacuum cleaner. Three comments.
1) The old one was 28 years old when it died yesterday. I've had that sucker (no pun intended) over half my life. I think I got my money's worth out of it. And I just bought another of the same brand (Eureka). I figure they deserved my loyalty.
2) The new one has some pethair-specific gadgets on it. I tried them out this afternoon on my loveseat and chair. Wonder of wonders, they actually seem to get rid of cat hair. What a concept.
3) "It's like buying a vacuum cleaner" is still my standard for things I need but really don't want to spend money on.
