Jesse, I always wanted those drying racks you pull down from the ceiling, like in Victorian kitchens. Not that our current ceiling is anywhere near high enough, but still.

My neighbor has this one from IKEA, and it's great.

I have one too, but it's still in the box because I didn't realize when I bought it that my bathroom has a tiled ceiling. So I'm saving it for when we move in a couple years.

I've been seeing ads for washing machine cleaner, which sounds so crazy to me, but apparently some people need it?

I use Bac-out because I cloth diaper and live in a very small apartment. If I were in a house and the washer were in the basement, I probably wouldn't bother.

When you're not on wi fi, what network does it use?

Whoever AT&T's local partner is, I think. And not all Kindles will work internationally - the first 2 generations were on Sprint, so no GSM.

Oh, balls. I took the trap off my sink, and that's not where the blockage is. I couldn't get the snake very far in, either.

So I went down into the crawlspace and it doesn't look good: the drain pipe has a bunch of dried hair and gunk around the outside at one of the joins. Damn it.

So I guess I will be calling a plumber on Monday. YIKES. Home ownership: so much fun!

Remind me not to piss of Liese when she's holding her bow.

Ha! I never point my bow at anything I don't intend to kill. Well, hit, anyway, I dunno how killed my target can get.

I wanna go hang at Liese's for a weekend and shoot stuff and enjoy the desert!!

Hee. You are always welcome!

Ewww, Consuela.

Man, I do *not* want to go out in the rain. Somebody talk me into it.

I usually put white vinegar in the fabric softener reservoir, and I think that helps keep the smell at bay.

Go smonster! I already accidentally talked us out of the house concert, which was a mistake, so we're already at capacity for Buffistas backing out of fun stuff for the evening. Go, and then I'll feel better by you having fun.

Oh, I'm not having fun. I'm going to the pet and grocery stores. But part of my purchases will be for the long day of parades tomorrow - six of them near me, starting at 9 am.

I dyed my hair. The white hairs that were almost blond were interesting, but I'd missed the richer color.

Of course, after posting something awesome about the hood, the feral kids are out. I'm pretty sure someone dropped them off, but no one was home. They're feral for a reason. So they're running around being really loud. I doubt a one is over 11. I may call 911 if they aren't gathered up by 10.

How I spent my day [link] eta (New cats like carrots!)

I had been thinking of naming him Zed Astaire, but he might be too goofy

I did make it to Costco, at least.

He also likes his S-scratcher! (I've got one made out of corrugated cardboard, and it gets knocked about.) I love the attempt at dignity at the end. Glad he found you!

Goofy is fun, lemmetellya. Zebediah? Zedebiah? Zediculous?
