SON OF A BITCH!!! I was cleaning the bathroom, and put the metal soap/lotion holder on top of the toilet tank. some fucking genius decided to make the top curved, which I always forget. The holder slides off, hits the tub and falls. by some miracle, neither of the glass bottles break, but the metal hit the tub and CHIPPED THE FUCKING TUB ENAMEL. How the fuck does that happen? Is that faulty enamel or just dumb luck?
Right. Sir. Honey.

I was all, "hey! How's RL doing?"
afaik, she's doing okay! Still jailbait, still smarter than the average bear, and back to being a lesbian.

Ooh, that sucks, Vortex.
Also, I vote lemon bars. Mmm, lemon bars.
Also, I don't think RL is jailbait anymore....
Erin, for paint, if you're an indoor smoker, I'd def consider washing the walls first. And cleaning the baseboards (dunno how much you clean, but I'm always surprised when I go to paint how much dust there is on the baseboards...goes to show how I clean...). And I had v. good luck with teh Behr paint from Home Depot. But AVOID THE GLIDDEN!! Bad stuff.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
It would freak me out to see a pet I was sitting sleeping like that. The one thing I hate about pet sitting is that nagging fear in the back of my mind that I will kill my friend's pet. I just finished watching Slings & Arrows season 1 with my dad and I was thinking how cool it would have been to see the lizard stomping through Holly's model of New New Burbage. Every lizard should get to destroy a city. Season 2 is at my brother's house and I just got season 3 back from my sister. How cool is it that practically my whole family is watching Slings & Arrows?

Erin it doesn't sound like you're thinking of using primer but just in case I recommend against an oil-based one. The fumes are awful!

Primer? Do I need it? I'm painting over white walls that are in pretty good shape.

I don't think you do but I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to household projects.

when it comes to paints, I really have no clue. However, when I went to help a friend paint her new apartment, she chastised me for going too slow. It seems latex paint cures, and if you roll over it too slow, and let it dry it will show slightly different hues or grains or some such. You don't want to go fast (drips, missed spots, uneven thickness, etc), but you want to make sure that you have a nice orderly approach so that you always are overlapping a slightly wet paint zone. I think I was doing high up first, then low down, and she was complaining that could ... *COULD* leave a weird, uneven color shift in the middle of the wall.
That is all I know on painting.
Erin, what is the name of that cleaner? "Lysol Super Power Nuclear Fission Cleaner" doesn't seem to be on the Lysol website. Is it a bowl cleaner only? I'm interested, as the current apartment has limey water, and both sinks, the tub and the bowl could use some attention before leaving. I'm all for the least effort products. Indecently, CLR does not work on this stuff. I'm sure it's not Lime, per se. What ever it is, it's a pain in the ass to clean.

Okay, that friend? Not going to be getting lots of second-time helpers with her apartment painting, I'm thinking.

she was a scenic artist. Ya. I know. What can I say, she was fun to hang with and very cute.
