Noo Yeer
Not drunk yet ;) But I wanted to wish everyone a happy, safe, healthy and prosperous new year!

Well how about that, it's like, Christmas or something...
Of course, there are other holidays, but as Hallmark can tell you, they're not nearly as marketable.
But nonetheless, tis the season (or something to that effect), so I wish you all very happy holidays (whichever ones you choose to participate in), and if I don't post in the interim, a happy and safe new year (and don't even bother making resolutions. If you need a changing of the calendar year to inspire you to improve yourself, it's just not worth it).
God bless, and good will towards... reindeer?

Just to let you all know...
Just to let you know, I'm having some health issues, and another hospital stay is likely. So if you don't see me for a bit, you know why.

No, I'm not Martha Stewart, but...
I do have two little tips for compacting garbage in the bathroom. The two most "built up" garbage types (ie the ones that fill your bathroom garbage the fastest) are: Toilet paper rolls, and disposable cups.
But I have methods for dealing with these, which reduces the amount of space they take up in your garbage bin:
1] Toilet Paper rolls: Keep the first roll on the radiator cover or sink (ie out of the way, but not in a place where it can cause trouble, like on an unprotected radiator). Then when you get the next roll, crease it down the middle length wise, until it's cross section resembles a heart that has collapsed in the middle. You can then slide this roll into the previous one. When you get a third roll, take the previous grouped roll, and do the same (sliding it into the new third roll). If you crease them right, and don't have too much excess toilet paper stuck to the rolls (some cheaper TP's will still have a sheet or two glued to the roll), you can fit approximately 8 rolls of toilet paper together this way. In the garbage bin though, they will only take up the space of 1 roll of toilet paper!
2] Disposable Cups: this one is much less involved ;) Simply stack used cups (bottoms up or top up, whichever way is easier to help you remember that they're used), and stack them. When you get a group of a dozen or so, you can dump them. It's not as space efficient as the toilet paper roll trick (8 to 1), but it still takes up a lot less space in the garbage than throwing them away individually (even if you crush them). This trick however, is much more efficient with the plastic disposable cups than with say, Dixie cups (cardboard cups) which become soft when wet, and thus crumple better.
