there will be no more pain.
Betsy, so nice to see your font around again!
sarameg - your neighbors made my day. It would be better if someone brought me good food - but that's just a good thing.
I might even make a good dinner for me. I was thinking boreing.
There is no way in hell I can chose a favorite restaurant. that's insane. There are two back in Ct- neither of which has anything close out here. I have one chinese, 1 pho , one french , one vietnamese/american breakfast to dinner place, one italian and one mediterain( i give up - it looks wrong no matter what I do ) in my town. and I love to cook ....
No more pain for Tom. I still think it's ridiculous he had to suffer as long as he did.
If only I knew how to light the pilot
Not actually hard, and some water heaters have helpful instructions on them, or at least settings called "pilot." The trick is that you need to have a clicky stick fire thing.
t /called plumber twice before I realized the problem was that I just wasn't getting the flame back far enough
It's a monster boiler for 40+ units with locks I don't have keys to. So I can't do it. Alas. I'd be kind of freaked out to do it ,even if I had access. Not sure why it went out. Don't feel like going BOOM.
I do know how to relight my furnace pilot, though! It still scares me, in any case.
So I went to my favorite restaurant tonight, and there's a flaw in the plan. Our fave waiter comps us drinks, right? So tonight we had a new waiter and our guy caught up with us just as we were paying the bill...and I'd had two margs and a little bit of Bob's. We caught up, he noticed we brought in some people last time we were here and wanted to thank us for bringing in business...now I'm three drinks and more into the hole.
ETA: Also, everyone who likes Arrested Development should give It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia a try; I just watched the first ten minutes of tonight's new one and am entranced. It's not for everyone but worth at least a look. It airs again in like, uh, eight minutes.
Hey ita, I'm writing something on astronauts vs. cavemen. I'm using Ellen Ripley as an example of astronaut/logic/ingenuity beating the thing operating on lizardbrain.
I have questions about skill vs brute force, and I think you're the woman to answer! Where you at? Head go 'splodey?
you loves a marg.
Makes me think of summer, you know? I feel guilty for being the cliche that likes America's favorite drink, but it's good stuff.
Back to my misanthropic sitcom. Also, CONGRATS MSBELLE!
I was at the hardware store, and they have pokey fire-stick things, only the metal stick bit where the fire comes out? is bendy. Bendy fire-stick!
Bendy fire-stick!
I saw those! I. Was. In. Awe.
