    Yeah, our winters aren't like that. The air is a bit damp, of course, owing to our town being right next to the ocean, but it's nowhere near humid enough to need a dehumidifier.
    I hate winters over here. Not just because of the cold, but also because of the dry air. I hate getting zapped at the supermarket when I try to grab a can off the shelf.

    LMAO . . . that's what happens when you spray something on you so bad that it makes the girls want to fling POO at you to improve the odor.
    Yeah, my son uses that crap, and he can't seem to understand the concept of using "just a little." When he gets up, gets a shower, and goes somewhere he leaves an invisible, smelly trail of the stuff starting from his bathroom, going down the steps, and ending at the front door or garage, depending how he left the house.

      We have microfiber plush sheets. I spend so much time zapping my poor cat ... she now flinches when we go to pet her

        I hate to say it but this scenario will probably repeat itself next year. She'll buy another dehumidifer this fall, then next winter/early spring she'll come in bitching that it doesn't work.
        Yeah, you're probably right.

        If she does, hopefully somebody will finally be able to get it through her thick skull that she's buying it for the wrong damn season. I don't hold out much hope of her going elsewhere, though. I'm not that lucky.

          Hmmmm, I wonder if someone had told her to take a long, steamy shower (or at least run the shower) and then use the thing in the closed bathroom, if she would be convinced it works - when there is humidity in the air, at least?

          I'm guessing she wouldn't believe it.

            Look on the bright side . . . he won't be able to tell you, "I was home the whole time!" when in fact, he snuck in/out when he shouldn't have.

            The nose knows.

              I'd like to return these Nikes. They didn't turn me into a world class athlete.

                Seshat's self-help guide:
                1. Would you rather be right, or get the result you want?
                2. If you're consistently getting results you don't want, change what you do.
                3. Deal with the situation you have now, however it occurred.
                4. Accept the consequences of your decisions.

                  I don't drink Red Bull, but a lot of my friends do, and I have yet to see any of them get wings.

                    I have one of those fuzzy microfiber blankets, and just straightening it during winter makes all these pretty little zaps. Oddly enough, the cats won't go near it, no matter what time of year it is.
