I drink wine sometimes.

Well that was fun…

Fun!

I work in an old brick warehouse, built in the 1800s. If it’s windy outside, we can feel it through the mortar. Our earthquake drill consists of my boss yelling “GETOUTGETOUTGETOUT” and then running down scary metal stairs.

I need a beer now.

And in lieu of a real post…

I will be going to Rollercon from Thursday through Sunday.
The weekend after I get back, I will attempt to make chocolate bread.

I’m skating. A lot. And getting better. New date for tryouts is in about three weeks. I’m planning on making sub-pool. Rar!

(I also have a plan b… you know… staying in fresh meat. But I really don’t wanna.)

There's a good thing at the end at least

Things I said to the plumbers before I left work yesterday:
“Under the cabinets are clear, do you need me to get anything else out of your way before I leave? No? Okay then.”
“Please be careful of the ant traps I bought yesterday and laid down near where you might be working.”
“The cats shouldn’t be a problem but they might try to do a runner if you leave the door open.”

Things the plumbers did while I was at work yesterday:
Take everything out of my bathroom and dump it on the floor in front of the litter box in the closet. Including my toothbrush.
Abscond with or misplace my face soap. (What the hell, plumbers?)
Knock giant holes in my walls.
Throw away half of the ant traps.
Spill the other half.
Move furniture.
Not put anything they moved back.
Didn’t clean up.

As a bonus they didn’t lose the cats.
