Dyson vacuum, anyone?

I first heard the praises of the Dyson vacuum sung here. Shannon is generally a reasonable (and slightly nutty and very funny) mom, and I couldn't imagine her spending $400 on a vacuum cleaner...but she did and she didn't regret it.

Well, I did it. I bought a Dyson. Your glowing feedback convinced me. And I hope you were right, because I had to sell one of the children to pay for it.

(Joke! That's a joke!)

. . .

And then I turned it on.

Oh-for-the-love-of-all-that-is-good-and-HEPA-filtered, now I get it.

Thus began my covetousness. I want a Dyson vacuum cleaner. My house is just as dirty as Shannon's, I'm sure of it! Since I don't have $400 to spend on one, someone should give me one. Q.E.D., obviously.

Well, someone is giving one away! And you should all go enter the contest here, although I hope that none of you win it (because, of course, I want to!) :)

Also, today is the LAST DAY TO ENTER (I know, I came to this party a little late). So check it out now!
