Hmm. I think I'll go with the summary. The house is being a money pit, things which should be simple are being a pain in the ass, and I had forgotten how *much* dry pleurisy sucks. It's October. I should be writing madly. Instead I'm going to go soak in a tub and maybe go straight on to bed.

ETA: Okay. Whining less now.  Thanks,
springwoof , your timing was perfect.
