Might Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Tags : None So I have an old dresser in my bedroom. It used to belong to the ex and was recently told that it doesn't belong in a single man's bedroom. I don't want to buy a new dresser, so I plan on redoing this one. I'm going to distress it and paint it black. Hammer, sander, any other ideas what I can use to beat the crap out of this thing. I want to put some character into it and get out some aggression. Should be fun.

Don't let those memories prevent you from living a full life. You are single. Hear you roar. (with apologies to Helen Reddy) Google™ is your friend

I'm not worried about the memories so much any more. I need to update my style and without a job at this point, buying new furniture, even from Salvation Army is pushing it. It will be a fun project. But I have a promising interview on Friday.

Posts: 290 (01/28/09 11:51 AM) Chick? Check. Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	Can you: just sandpaper it to make it look more masculine? Change the knobs? Post a pic of it? and was recently told that it doesn't belong in a single man's bedroom. Someone was in your bedroom, and they commented on the dresser?

Then replace the knobs with dildos. I'm from Milwaukee and I ought to know, it's Blatz, Blatz, Blatz, wherever you go!

Might Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I think I'm going to do it to the night stand, tv stand and other dresser to make them all match. But I need more paint. Maybe next week.

But you have to admit she was right, that dresser did not belong. I mean, look at that pink thing on it! Look at it. It had to be changed. It's one of those things you just get used to seeing for 10+ years and don't realize it until someone else points it out.
