Susan, I'm very sorry about the work crap. I agree with JZ--ask your co-workers to tell your boss next time they're happy with you.
Sorry to be all meme, but I know you're all dying for a plumbing update.
According to ND, the plumber came, said something about there being no outside access to the pipes or some such, collected $55 from landlady's dad (who was there to meet him since we were all working), and left. Last ND checked, we still had no working bathtub or toilet, and landlady's dad was still working on it.
ARGH!!! ONE BATHROOM, PEOPLE! ND suggested that I pee before I come home. This arrangement is really not going to work for me.
The thing is, as ND said to me earlier, technically she should be paying for a hotel. We can't be sans bathroom. But she's so good about everything normally, and this is clearly something she's actively been trying to fix from the moment we texted her last night. I don't know. We'll find out later tonight, I guess.
ugh Kristin that sucks. Swift resolution~ma (or swanky hotel~ma whichever you prefer) to you!
If it weren't for the fact that this place only has one bathroom it wouldn't be such a big deal.
I'd like to help, Susan, but I'm taking my mom out for her birthday tonight and I don't know if I could get to it before you go to work. You can send it to me and I'll try.
Plumbing~ma, Kristin and Noise. Hope y'all have some high bushes in the yard.
Susan, I'm available, for whatever my feedback might be worth, seeing as my line of work is not at all office-y. If you don't get any better offers, I'm willing.
Roto-Rooter has been called. Hopefully I will hear back from their dispatcher soon.
Well, Squeaky Fromme wasn't a successful assassin. And my husband, who once went out to the Manson ranch on offical Forest Service business, said The Family was generally quite friendly and polite.
edit: Fine, make me look strange.
tommyrot, I briefly nicknamed one of mine Miss Squeaky the Vampire Kitty when I first got her, as she was only active in the middle of the night (hiding otherwise) and she's also a squeaker.
But I got no help in full on naming, as I left them with the names they'd already been given. (Sam and Max as a play on some anime thing.) WindSparrow's Sammie posts always make me grin for I also have a Sammie girl.
I have gotten some of the billing spreadsheeted out. Need to do just a little bit more, and then I can go home. Theoretically there are fewer distractions here at my office than at home, but I've been here all day and haven't accomplished much. I have Buffy S6 disc 6 in my laptop, so I'm listening to the soundtrack on the French version while I work.
Good Luck with the RotoRootering, ND & KT.
