And on top of everything else, I messed up the manicure I gave myself just last night

This morning I got my grocery shopping done early and was home by 10am. I started cooking immediately, and just wrapped up about half an hour ago. I took one fifteen minute break around 3:00 because ooof. That is a lot of cooking. But I've got three different meals for breakfasts and lunches next week so I won't be eating the same things twice a day, again.

Our water heater died, and nobody in the entire town of Lawrence carries Energy Star water heaters. This is fucking ridiculous. And annoying. I'm uncertain how/if I'm going to be able to shower here until we get one. And of course the neighbors with whom I was close enough to ask to use theirs until we got a new one moved two months ago.

Blah.

I should probably do something like eat an actual meal since all I've had today is a handful of jerky and little nibbles to taste test the stuff I was cooking. Lack of food probably isn't helping my outlook. And porn. Maybe some porn, too.

Un-fucking-believable.
Hm. Call Michael Almon at Paradigm Design. 840-0313 and ask him.
He installs tankless water heaters and specializes in green installations and remodeling. I know the tankless are hella pricey to install, but maybe he would have suggestions.
My exboss Amy Girard had him install hers.

I mentioned to him on FB to check with you on it :)

I can only offer my most recent FB / tumblr[1] updates as porn. *cough*

I didn't eat shit all day (five cups of coffee and a baked potato) until after I picked up those weights, and then committed grocery shopping while thirsty - a gallon of grapefruit juice, hot salsa, limeade, and an italian sub.... so I know those feels, bro.

this morning was cat stuff (food, litter, etc), pasta fixings (see my most recent post), and greek yogurt because it was on sale @ $1ea.

Great stuff over there! I'm not familiar with your Tumblr stylesheet and can't figure out how to like or reblog your posts, though... suggestions?

The theme I use is called "Redux," and I just set all the colors to various bits of greyscale. i honestly haven't paid it much mind - i uploaded my profile and header graphics, set colors, picked fonts, and then completely forgot about it, because i always read in the dashboard view anyways. (i actually have a second one that i forgot about until just now. i should use it more, because it's where my *really* asocial urges get expressed. heh.)

I think that the follow icon should float in the upper right. as far reblogging/liking posts, i think that should be available as a mouseover, or, if you click an individual post, should be in the upper right corner in the hovery bits.

Yup, I'm following you now! Just can't figure out how to click any of the posts (if I click an image, for example, it just takes me to the original source, and hovering gets me neither the heart or spiral-reblog icon).

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2013-08-05 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Instead of clicking the image, click the words that say "Reblogged X minutes ago" or "Posted X minutes ago." That'll take you to the actual entry and from there, the Like, Reblog, and Follow icons are in the upper right corner.

THX!

by this time I hope you have resolved it.

On a weekend? Pffft. The best we can hope for is Monday.

holy smokies! That is a LOT of cooking. I hope you had wine while doing it.

Sorry about the water heater. Stop showering altogether and when people at work complain about the funk, tell them to pay you more and then you'll shower. :)

Actually, wine isn't agreeing with me all that well, anymore. I tend to get a slightly upset tum. So I save the wine for special occasions, now. *sigh*

This comment makes me so sad.

sorry about the hot water heater. :( Hope the food and porn helped. :)

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2013-08-05 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
The food helped. Shockingly, I never got around to the porn!

[identity profile] jimmy-hollaman.livejournal.com 2013-08-05 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
but, but... there is always more time for porn. Lol :)
Glad the food helped.
