More furniture

Our kitchen faucet exploded this weekend, and replacing all the 30-year-old parts is going to be a nightmare. Not because it's difficult, but because the piece that needs to be replaced is the water shutoff valve. Once you get past the basic shutoffs in the unit, THERE IS ONLY ONE SUPPLY SHUTOFF FOR THE ENTIRE BUILDING, so to replace the angle

I like the color! :-)

thanks :D I haaaaaaaaated the jewel blue it started with. happy accident :3

Oy, that sucks! We had to replace a valve in the basement recently, and that was a job done in 15 minutes, fortunately. (Well, we called a plumber to do it.)
But yours is very complicated indeed!

Hey, but that stand looks good! That embellishment gives it a touch of French royalty ;-D

this is a pile. fortunately the maintenance guy is handling it. and he sounds like a SMART maintenance guy, e.g., he laughs at my jokes immediately, instead of staring blankly at me for a moment while he puzzles it out (like the mnt guy at our last place)

THANKS :D <3 <3 <3

Yeah, the whole 'Condo association' bit making decisions that lead to your dues getting jacked up ....sucks. But then again, I get spared the time required for keeping up the lawn / bushes / trees / etc..... So, on the whole, owning the condo, instead of a single family home, means a bit more free time?

[shepherdwolf]

Dude, I dunno, I think I'd rather hire a 17-year-old (a sweaty, muscular 17-year-old) to mow the lawn than have some committee decide that a roof, somewhere, needs to get replaced and I end up getting charged $2000 for it. lol

Also I happen to LIKE bushes/trees/watching the sweaty 17-year-old mow the lawn :3

Are you still in the same place?

[maxim_shade]

Still in the same place. Just got my flowerboxes set up, with some nice ivy geraniums.

EYAH! 0.o Talk about ouch. Here's for getting this all sorted out asap. XP

Also, VERY EXCELLENT choice of color. And how ya worked it came out major fine. B-3

As for condo's BLEH!!! I'm not for them. S'too invading, to say the least. <.< And it's just disturbing IMO. I do hope you and Chris the best in finding a single-family home. I believe it'll turn out outstanding. <=)

[shepherdwolf]

Ouch and drip and EARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGHHHH WHAT IS THAAAAAT. lol

thanks! :D WANT ONE LOL?

Yeah, between that and noise, I think I'm against the idea again. Great for an apartment, though. except I can't play dance dance revolution :( or own a DOG.

WHY ARE WE -BOTH- ON LIVEJOURNAL

WE ARE, LITERALLY, PARTYING LIKE IT'S 1999

QUICK, GET ON VIA DIALUP ON A RELATIVELY-NEW-TECHNOLOGY WIRELESS CONNECTION!!!

also yes, i emailed the landlord, and he called the maintenance guy, and he's going to come lay his hot mexican ass out while chris takes pictures of him sprawled under the sink (i presume).

we spent 9 hours because, insanely, i didn't want to bother them. ALSO because i didn't know we HAD a maintenance guy, because before we moved my 89-year-old landlord was in here, "doing things" and being ungodly old, and I was afraid if he came to do the faucet he would have a heart attack, break a hip, and fix it wrong anyway. since i'm pretty sure he's the one who fucked it up in the first place.

BUT the hopefully-hot maintenance guy is going to handle it, and hopefully chris won't act anything out from the story "Maintenance," or we're going to have a harrrrrrd time getting him to come back :3

Unless the things attempted from "Maintenance" succeeded. At which point then you'd have a submissive stud for all your perverse...perverseness.
