Vortex, ugh. I hope you can get that fixed with minimal pain. Is the manufacturer going to replace them, or can the contractor fix it?
Most of our fixes haven't been cheap and if we're paying a couple hundred (or thousands of) dollars for something, we'd just like to have it done correctly.
The guy who fucked up our trim is really young and probably just inexperienced. I know mitre cuts are a bitch to do but the wood trim we have in this house is EXPENSIVE and that long of a piece will be a pain in the ass to replace and match the stain.
Oh doG this meeting is boring.
Dude, getting stuff done at home is a nightmare. Still working out the kinks with the bathroom. It is rage-inducing.
Funny ass story: GF and I were over at a co-worker/friend's house a few weeks back and were hanging out with him and his 3 daughters (all under 8). David mentioned to them that we used to be in a band in the course of the conversation, which caught the interest of the oldest girl. She asked lots of questions and then she and her sister played a song for us (keyboard and guitar - neither knows how to play but was adorable).
Fast forward to yesterday. Oldest girl gets invited to a Hannah Montana-themed b-day party and it's a costume party in which everyone should dress as a "rock star." Oldest daughter goes up to co-worker and says, "I'm going to be
t GF's first name
." He is puzzled, "
t GF's first name
?" "Yeah, your friend who was over here, remember." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I told him the costume would be really easy: jeans, a black turtleneck, black Sauconys, and sunglasses perched on top of head. Dying. Over. Here.
I know, right???? Still laughing.
Happy 11th to the Bil-ishams!!!
"I'm going to be ." He is puzzled, " ?" "Yeah, your friend who was over here, remember."
This is awesome. GF's a Rock Star!
Howdy, y'all. I feel substantially less crappy than I did yesterday...I'm calling it a win.
Happy anniversary, Ms. Havisham and CaBil!
Oh doG this meeting is boring.
Well at least you don't have another 7AM-2PM meeting tomorrow. Oh wait...yes you do! (The teacher gets to sleep in and the theatre guy has to get up early! Mine is an evil laugh.) (Apparently my cold is making me taunty and lovingly spiteful. Huh.)
Dude, getting stuff done at home is a nightmare.
So very true. Home renovation of any kind sucks, especially when the place is supposed to be new and shiny, like Vortex's.
Loving the image of little girl being GF as rock star at a party.
We are up to page 22. Tomorrow I get to do the second half of this meeting and then go directly to a designer run through on another show.
I hope you can get that fixed with minimal pain. Is the manufacturer going to replace them, or can the contractor fix it?
The contractor was going to jury rig some shit, but I refused. I've waited this long, it needs to be done right.
I also had them look at the towel bar in the bathroom, which keeps falling down. Turns out that they used the wrong kind of screws and also put great honking holes in the drywall. That's gotta be fixed. Also, at 1AM last night, my closet rod threatened to fall down. Because it's too long for the amount of support it has. And every closet has them, so it will eventually happen to everyone. At least, everyone with clothes. Angry letter in the midst of being written right now.
