Dunno what the drama is, le nubian, but good luck. Sounds like it's something involving discretion and outcomes and general SUCKFEST.
Garage door guy came. He is fixing door.
OK, question: the lowest panel of the door is dented by the roommate's car running into it. She said she'd pay to fix. Guy is currently fixing the actual functioning of the door (a spring busted loose and some screws were bent). That should be fairly cheap ($100 or so). He's going to get an estimate for replacing the bent panel. It's not a HUGE dent, but it is a clearly visible one, and I don't want to someday be selling the house all "Oh, we need you to fix that so it's pretty for buyers!" and she's long gone. But at the same time, I know if *I* were paying for all this, I'd probably say "eh, not that big a dent, NBD". What to do? (I'm sure it will also depend on how much the estimate is)
See what the estimate is, and then decide. If it's less than $200, have her pay for the whole thing. If it's more, maybe you can split it somehow.
I swear to god, I still feel like choking someone.
Anyway:
here's a pic of Hillary looking PIMP.

Seattle peeps, in case you don't know about this place: Cafe Munir
Sunday nights they do a $15 prix-fixe dinner, and Whiskey Night is on Tuesdays.
Today I discovered that if people are being less than helpful about a project, they'll suddenly start responding with options if you tell them about your crazeballiest potential project solution.

Please tell me you suggested "attacking it with hummus."

The metaphorical equivalent of attacking it with hummus while wearing a clown suit at a coulrophobia convention, oh yeah.
Timelies all!
Apparently Nova was under the bed when I closed the bedroom door and turned out the light.(Gary was away yesterday on business.) How do I know this? By getting woken up at 5:30 by a cat grooming me. Sleepy now...
::sigh::
We have a business user that keeps asking us to make exception. Well, everyone likes to feel special, right? But she's asking that, for the people for this office, can you show
this
information, instead of
that?
Uh, no? Because "that" is what's in the database, and if we hardcode "this" into the program, we're violating the premise of the entire thing. If you want to actually change the data, please feel free, but if you don't want the ramifications of that, we can't actually help you, and this time we don't have any creative ideas to help you make an end run around the automation.
She's really nice, but she has no sense of consistency.
