And the sump pump was decidedly *not* installed at the lowest point of the floor.

Oh, Nora, ugh.

I just realized my post is supposed to say Stephen is withOUT an ouce of Bad Boy, but I'm too lazy to edit.

I don't even want to go home at ALL. Like ever again.

The asshats upstairs are the ones who are supposed to take care of the front, shared porch when it snows. I think they get a deal on their rent for doing it. So far today, they haven't, so now TCG is doing it before it turns to ice so that we can all get our mail.

Oh, Nora. I am so sorry, love.

DEENA! No more broken toes or general hurting of yourself.

My brain is tired, too. I'm fairly certain I once had a working familiarity with The Aeneid, and/or The Iliad, from my Latin classes, but it's all Greek to me, now. (Buh dah dah.)

Oh, Nora. Uck and no. I'm so sorry.

Also, despite my ideal Type, Stephen is big and fairly brawny, but the idea of him in a fistfight makes me laugh and laugh and laugh. He's a nice guy, through and through, with an ounce of the Bad Boy anywhere.

I always get a kick out of how much Scott identifies with Logan on VM. He very much roots for him. I'd always figured I'd been swayed by Jason Dohring's charms, but I don't think that's Scott's deal. He has great sympathy for the bad boy. He had his days, I guess, but I generally don't think of him as such, because he's very much (I mean this in a complimentary way) a grown up.

Deduct it from your rent or something, sj. The last 2 places I lived I negotiated that deal because it is completely the home owner's responsibility (and liability) to get that done. I deducted $25 for every snow situation.

What's funny to me is that I would have always said my type tended to dark

I wouldn't say I have a "type" because I find all sorts of men attractive but I do loooove the dark hair/light eyes combo. Which, I think, makes me a total narcisist. ah well.

My married friends up the street want to do an anti-v'day thing today, which I was secretely hoping they would want to do (mostly because I've been stuck alone in the house for 2 days). so yay! But in an added...thing...they have a supposedly hot, single male friend in town. Which means, I guess, I should shower before going out (they claim he is indeed shower worthy). I have no idea what I'll wear!

But Tom is at home, Nora!

sj, that sucks. I say deduct it, too, and tell the landlord why.

Thanks, Nora. It is once again that tricky situation of their landlord is not ours, but I am going to call my landlord and clarify with him that the the people upstairs are supposed to do it.

But Tom is at home, Nora!

That is the ONLY thing that is keeping me even just thinking about going home.
