Estimate from speedy auto glass for a brand new windshield, ~$270 plus tax for the glass, ~50$ plus tax for the molding if it’s needed (apparently, it depends on how it was originally installed, sometimes taking the old window out irreperably destroys the molding). Haven’t checked if my insurance will help with that, and at […]

Is this normal for stoves?
To fix a loose oven door handle, I need to
-take out the bottom pot/stuff drawer
-unscrew the glass front with 5 screws facing the floor about 8 inches up
-slide out the glass front, put it aside
-unscrew the top panel/bracket that the handle is attached to

Cute. Related to a movie coming out. It’s an interesting twist on a meme, in that you the reader can adjust the results.

So….I have an important decision to make.
Helen, with her newfound employment, will not be able to take over a week off work to attend pensic, and she will have to miss it.
I need to determine now if I still plan to go. I am sure I could enlist help in setting up our tent (it’s […]

Just got an email that I thought was spam, based on the fact that the text was all jumbled up, a sure sign it’s trying to confuse a spam filter and slip you an attachment or something.
Then I realized, it’s not jumbled….it’s dutch. I still don’t understand a word of it of course, except I […]

It’s starting to feel like someone is standing behind me, gently, but firmly pressing a pencil into my back, and starting to lean into it harder.
I suspect this will not feel very pleasant tonight. Time to practice sleeping on my front.

I tell you, miss one little blood donation appointment, and they come hounding me. They have left messages, and just called me at work trying to pin me down for an appointment. They always get quite persistent with me, and never let me forget it if I have to miss an appointment.
Helen, we are pencilled […]

From one co-worker this morning…
“You look like Snape”
Yeah…not what I was going for, never thought of that.
Got my operation today on my back, a small hole, 3 stitches, and I am back to work. I am wondering how tender this will be when the freezing wears off, and the big lump of gauze makes it […]

Helen, ilanikhan, green_ogre and I went out hiking today. We went up to Gatineau park, but the main road through the middle of the park is still closed off from winter, so we parked at the tourist kiosk (also closed), and just walked along the first available path. It was a paved path (bike path), […]
