Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

I really wish I could turn up the original selling price. I'm seeing others in the $4-6K range. Think about that. I know my grandparents built their place in the late 30s for $7K.

I love history. I'd love to find an archive that has the ad for this street's style of homes from '31. Print it, frame it and hang it.

Inspector told me they are re-roofing the upper roof as we speak. Still confused as to where the water came from. Bah. But they extended a gutter and did some other shit. And the water heater and boiler were serviced.

That's a nifty ad, sarameg. I love the descriptions.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that was great.

ION, a GM ad just told me, "It's time to rally." Seriously, GM? Maybe give it a week.

msbelle and lisah, I think that pipe/lid thing in the back "yard" may have been the remains of an underground trash receptacle. Mind boggles. History me wants to put it in a pot and plant stuff in it. What? It is interesting!

eta: the door in the drawing? Is the door the house has.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love this ring and this artwork.

oooooh. That's cute! But no. She doesn't use an apron.

Sigh.

I'm striking out on etsy too.

“Not dead yet!”

You can give her the knuckle ring ita linked to.

I mean... I'd consider it for my mom.
