What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

Our wings are not tired.

I was impressed that Scully and Mulder didn't destroy the packages under the tree. The curly ribbons were super irresistible.

I didn't take a lot of pictures yesterday, just a couple of my sons, but my SIL took a number and I posted them all. I know my other SIL took a bunch so I'll see if she posts them. It was very nice. The only political discussion was of the "I can't believe anyone thinks this PoS belongs in the White House" variety, so that was okay. The only contrary person to that notion wasn't in the room at the time. We all know better than to discuss anything with her.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

New plumber guy seems a lot more reliable than the first, but my hot water may have to stay off for a week because of scheduling. There is leaking inside the tank, but because the systems are on different pressures, it's forcing the extra pressure back into the furnace, hence the emergency discharge.

I'm somewhat relieved that the problem is a real problem, not bullshit, but the replacement should come in to well-under $6K (It'd be about $2500 for a free-standing new system, by comparison, new-plumber said.)

I'm sorry if I'm being boring here, but it's good to be able to share thoughts about this.

Happy happy birthdays, Theo and Jesse!

That payment plan plumber gets the stink eye from me, too. Maybe a low-key spa day for hot water? Or a gym or pool with a day pass situation?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday to Theo and Rayne as well!

$15 for a 30-minute soak at this place! [link] Which I always mean to go to, but never actually do....

-t, there's a YMCA about two blocks away, so that'd be our choice.

I really wanted to be able to turn the hot water back on for a couple hours a day, but that will make the furnace go gushy-gushy in a big way.

Happy birthday, Jesse, Theo, and Rayne!

I am working today and so far it has been very slow, which is good because this cold is kicking my ass.

I'd forgotten about Inman Oasis, which is actually kinda work-adjacent for me.

It seems like such a nice low-key treat in the winter.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Theo, Jesse and Rayne!

We are at Gary's dad and stepmom's place.(My brother and sister-in-law are at my parents' place, so we're here.) Last night we did the traditional Chinese buffet with the whole family.(The two youngest neiblings came down, though the oldest decided to stay in New York)

Over half the department is out today and more aren't coming in until later. It's spooky quiet.
