As lucyruthe and I are combining our stuff into one comfortingly crass household, we're discovering duplicates. These things that we don't need are up for the first taker who is willing to come get 'em. So far we have:

** An electric kettle, works quite well.
** A brand-new dishrack Traded for art!** Two brown table lamps, reminiscent of the 70s. One needs

what is an electric kettle?

[combustafarian]

It's a plastic pitcher with a heating element in it that plugs in to boil water. Mine is a cordless one - it sits on a base that plugs in, you flip a little switch on the pitcher, and it boils the water inside. It then switches off as soon as it boils; there's a safety cutoff to stop it from boiling dry.

They're convenient as hell if you drink tea or hot chocolate or that fake international coffee crap. I got addicted to them when I lived in Scotland and got one as soon as I moved home. lucyruthe is the only other person here I know who has one, and hers is nicer. It's obviously true love.

I would love a funkay chrome dishrack. I'll trade you art for it?

[combustafarian]

Hell yes! Will you be in Uptown anytime soon?

[manna_panna]

I could stop by sometime the week after xmas. Or if you need to get rid of it right away, I can bus out there some time this week.

[manna_panna]

The week after xmas will be fine - just let me know a day or so in advance.

You know, most people get rid of their useless crap via Ebay. Just a suggestion.

[ursathebear]

Yeah, but that smacks of effort during a time when i've got too much stress and other stuff to do. So anything that is more effort than hauling it down to the trashcan is out of the question.

The electric kettle sounds intriging, and I would like it, I just don't know when I'd be able to get it...If its still available let me know and I'll get back to you :P

[combustafarian]

It's yours. We can figure out a pickup when you have time.
