Since I haven't had to drive anywhere today, I haven't been able to test it much, but I do know that when you start a drive, he says "Are you prepared?"
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

4 shots of how my day started (not shits as I emailed my parents) and then how it went, annotated in the individual descriptions [link]
Will keep adding to the album.
Buying appropriate anchors in the morning. Applying bourbon now.
Bonus Before shot of sidewalks. Though I don't know if I'll get an After before the week is out due to the weather. [link]

Oh, and there probably was wallpaper under umpteen layers of paint. I think under the bilious blue turquoise paint. There was plaster-paper-thick plaster, several coats of paint, paper, blue. 83 years, shit happens.
Have I ever told you guys I found out this was a halfway house at one point? 80s , I think. Need to quiz that neighbor more.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Thanks, guys. I like this doctor, and I'm already feeling better overall, so I have good hopes.
sarameg, think of it as an adventure...?
Lots of people paint over wallpaper. I don't know why, it's awful. It's just easier, I guess.
I will try Waze, just for Ichabod.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I once had to sit through an hour-long session on how to use the new photocopier.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I feel like I remember seeing ads for paint you could use over wallpaper, once upon a time.

Every home improvement/repair in my house is an adventure. I've accepted that. Comes with the years and changing standards, good and bad. (Good=better wiring and plumbing. Flat roofs, yeahno. Bad=lost arts like plastering which last 80 years, but are now spendy to restore. And this house is freaking solid, even with as much neglect as it has seen.)
And once I realized the plaster had to go, popping the rest off was fun! I'm a picker, I like peeling and scraping. (Yes, I was the kid who played with Elmer's and rubber cement to peel it off...)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I once had to sit through an hour-long session on how to use the new photocopier.
We had to have an all-staff meeting to discuss where to place the new photocopier. This took 45 minutes. I am not making this up.

I totally did that!
