Nope, no warranty--and I've had the house for about a year and a half now, so that'd be out anyway.

I mostly wanted to make sure that hot water heater problems are still a plumber call, and not some other type person. I can call the plumbers that came out before, they were nice (even if they didn't really find a problem). Had to look up the check I used back then, make sure who it was!

Someone remind me to be a responsible grown-up type. Because one of the two limited-edition versions of the "Bela Lugosi's Dead" single I covet is currently on eBay at a very reasonable price. I don't need it. I know that. But oh! How I wants it. [link]

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It is probably the pilot light. The first time it happened to me, I watched the plumber and asked questions, so I've been able to do it myself since. It does help to have a longer clicky fire thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Okay, I love this cartoon. It's "physics" goodness.

Well, since the hot water provides my heat, hopefully I can get a plumber out pretty early tomorrow (though I have a 10AM doctor's appointment, so it may get pretty chilly in here before I can get someone!)

Yikes, meara. Stay warm!

Cass -- did you like the station?? I had so much fun listening to it today.

I got my room cleaned and organized, finished laundry and did dishes. I'd wanted to make chicken salad for tomorrow but ran out of time. Went to a lovely Lessons & Carols service at my sister's church (they have an awesome choir that she and her partner and my niece are all in), and then we all + my mom and a few friends went out to dinner after. Nice!

Buffistas, please remind me to buy small presents next year. I have my largest suitcase and a hockey bag sized duffel packed full of gifts for my family. With a week's worth of clothes for me tucked in here and there.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I just linked her to Derailing for Dummies.

Awesome.

So it seems Kim Jong Il has died.

Yeah, I just saw that on BBC. [link]
