Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

So something is either on the kitchen roof and hiding whenever I race up with a flashlight or something is IN the ceiling. Which is not impossible- there is an old stove fan vent on the outside wall. The cats are on high alert, and I've heard the scritching too.

But there's not access from that space to anywhere beyond the kitchen ceiling and walls, so I'm just amused. And curious. Squirrel? Rat? Bird?

Also, think I've finally figured out which damned tangle wire coming into the house is the actual functional phone line. And am a little appalled at the wiring, but it does lead me to believe I can put in a jack in a more sensible location easily.

Anyone know what to google to fencesell copper? I've got at least 20ft of copper tubing and given thieves have knocked over city light poles for the copper wiring...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Scrap metal recycling?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

McCaugnahey (or however you spell it) just said not watching tv made him the actor he is, in front of a ton of tv actors? Classy.

Because books.

Also loving Sarah Paulson's dress.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

12 Years a Slave won Best Motion Picture, of course.

Duh! OK, googling, I don't know if it'd be worth the hassle for a few bucks. However, I've got enough iron dead pipes that maybe if I stash it up, it'd pay for the experience alone. (In order to remove the pipe in places, I'm gonna need a better saw, which I can probably borrow.)

This craziness is brought to you by I'd rather be shopping for new shelving media centers, coffee tables, a tv and bar console, but if I'm replacing my sewer line soon, at least I can feel accomplished and making progress for free, goddamnit.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Ugh, had to clean out the grease trap at work which had spewed all over the laundry room . Then had a battle of wills over the sound curfew with one of the drunk brides. Not how I wanted to spend my night.

You might be able to get more for them as pipes than as bulk copper. I don't know where you'd do that, though.

In me news, I didn't manage to clear any segment of my To Do List like I hoped, but stuff that is overdue and dated within the last month is down to one screen, which is a decent improvement.

Coding and Sleeping

I'm thinking about a burrito for dinner.

I know this was posted two days ago. But good call!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hee.

I have meetings all afternoon, so should be Getting Stuff Done now, but I don't wanna! I did take care of a couple of personal things (retirement roll-over paperwork, inquire about vacation payout), but sadly, I don't think my boss will count those as accomplishments for the day.
