Water+electricity=death!

I watch TV. I know these things.

Just like air bubble+IV=death.

Oh, right. Never mind.

Yeah, it won't explodiate you probably, but it sounds like a leak, for sure. Remember when I had the upstairs neighbor (also a renter) who did his own plumbing? Good times.

These fuckers at the new apartment are a really PITA. I had to go to two different offices to sign the lease and pick up the keys, and I wasn't supposed to be able to get the keys until 1! But they were there. But seriously: lease signing between 10 and 2 in location, key pickup between 1 and 4 in a different one? That's fucked up. But they did give me a gift back with some Mrs. Meyer's cleaning solution and hand soap as well as toilet paper and a mug, so that's nice?

Also I will not mention that when the lease-signing lady was flipping through the umpteenth document, it said something about no pets. My broker assured me the cat was fine, and the lady pointed out many things in the various documents, but not that, so I'm going to believe it's fine.

Deep breaths.

Luckily, my 1pm got cancelled.

I know it's a leak, because it was leaking. And I told the maintenance guy and the building manager this, but all they've witnessed is the clicking, so they're not doing anything.

I'm not sure why we need to wait until more water is pouring from the ceiling, but it's not actually my ceiling, so I'll let it go.

Amy, I love that picture of the penguins. Can't you just hear the swelling music?

Can't you just hear the swelling music?

Exactly. And the hair! Or whatever. Like it's blowing in the wind! Penguins are awesome.

This is pretty much my stance now, even though I'm secretly terrified the house is going to go up in an electrical fire. But ... not my house, so as long as we're not in it ... ?

I know it's a leak, because it was leaking.

Oh right.

I'm not sure why we need to wait until more water is pouring from the ceiling, but it's not actually my ceiling, so I'll let it go.

Yeah, that will be a huge PITA when your ceiling falls down.

Penguins are awesome.

And sometimes badass, it would seem.

Happy birthday, Shir!

Water+electricity=bad. That is my stance.

With my aligners (Invisalign, for those not keeping up with the details of my life), I've gotten really good about flossing, because the thought of putting them back in after a meal without brushing and flossing grosses me out.

Steph, I apologize, I haven't mailed that book yet. Have barely left the house in the last week. If you really want a Waterpik, I have one my sis gave me a year ago and I never even opened; I could stick it in the box for you? Somebody might as well use it; I ain't.

I've been having an inordinate amount of stress about this whole cracked-tooth-needs-to-be-pulled-and-replaced-by-a-cyborg-implant situation.

FYI, looks like Tom's tooth is coming out. It is also annoying because he just had a root canal and crown on that tooth which was super spendy a couple years ago (before moving down here, but not that long before). I think his theory is currently, "shoulda pulled that tooth out from the start." (before spending thousands of dollars on it.)

Okay, guys--tell me that everyone here agrees it's "has another think coming", right? I'm fragile, and I can't deal with the heartbreak.

I'm not as emotionally attached to "coming down the pike", but still...it should be that too.

Okay, I have some information gathering I don't know where to start with. Must just dive in blind.
