I am really wayyyy more excited than I should be about my new vaccum I just ordered. I mean, I am Christmas when I was ten kinda excited. This is suppose to kick dirt's ass - fleas, spiders, and whatever else comes in it's path. For the past year we've been using a tiny shop vac. that does a crappy job on rugs, it works better for sucking up big things... ANYWAY... this new dyson is a purple and turquoise wonder. I can't wait!
