I Hope Chester Can Breathe in There

I don’t even know a “Chester Drawer” and have no idea why I have his clothes and two pairs of his boots.

    My old hair dresser showed me her boxes after she moved. A friend of hers had helped her pack and it wasn’t until she noticed some strange looks from the movers that she went over and looked at the contents line on the boxes:

    “S-ex Lube” and various other appropriate things I don’t want to type so you don’t get some seedy hits on your site. She was slightly mortified.

    I hope the move went/is going smoothly!

    You know…it must be a southern thing because it wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized it was a CHEST of DRAWERS and not chester drawers. HAHA That is too funny. :-)

    Let me esplain…

    Chester is a Southerner and people in the South are notorious for the double first name,as you know.

    Chester Drawers is short for Chest of Drawers.

    I’m not kidding when I say I grew up thinking it was Chester, until I realized people were only saying Chest Of in an odd, speedy way.

    Wait, if you have all of his clothes…is he running around naked somewhere?

    Good luck with the move, and to make sure you come back soon, I’ve tagged you for a rockstar meme. I know you can’t resist playing with Photoshop.

    Hmmm…seems that last comment disappeared. What I said was:

    If you have all of Chester’s clothing, does that mean he’s running around naked somewhere?

    Have a safe move, and we’ll see you back soon. I’ve tagged you for a meme at my blog, because I know you love playing with Photoshop.

    My sister somehow had the, umm, good fortune to end up in Alabama. Lots of Chester Drawers around her part of the state, too. Must be a popular name down there. Some hero of The War of Northern Aggression, maybe?

    Bryan wrote all sorts of crazy shit on the boxes the lkast time we moved.

    A box looked like this:

    Books
    Movies
    Solid Gold Bars
    My Grandfather’s Ashes
    Socks

    … the professional movers we hired were not amused. ;)

    That’s so funny.

    When my parents moved from CA back to the deep south last year, all of their boxes got labeled in Spanish. Not helpful. But funny.

    We had boxes marked, “stuff”. And they weren’t even numbered. At least you know what Chester put in your boxes.

    Aw the insanity of moving. We’d gotten so nutty when we last moved that our boxes said stuff like “more frickin toys” and the box that we’d packed our computer in we’d gotten creative with the spelling
    Hubby’s version : cumputer
    Mine: comepewter….

    Anyhoo , good luck and try not to go too crazy!

    Ha ha!

    I love it! I always used to think that people were talking about someone’s chest, as in breasts when using that term. I remember feeling embarassed if someone ever said “chest” of drawers.

    Also, it reminded me of the time we helped my husband’s grandparents move. We will always remember the HUGE box labeled “Joe’s NUTS”
