Woohoo working washer!

It's actually been very reliable. We've had it for about 16 years and this is only the second breakdown. The first was a disposable glove somehow getting in the wash and sucked into the drain pump. I replaced the pump, but I opened up the old one and untangled the glove so I wouldn't be surprised if the old pump still worked. I'm holding onto as a spare part.

It should be sturdy though because it wasn't cheap. It's a high-end Whirpool front loader made in Germany. Couldn't believe we actually spent that much on a washer at the time. It is really nice though.

It's often a good idea to spend up front on durable goods like that, yeah.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

Yesterday was one of the 4:30am days. I haven't been very good at getting myself to bed on time this week due to David Bowie and Alan Rickman and ita, and I realized that I was desperately sleep-deprived after a series of events that indicated my cognitive function was on par with a very drunk person. I put myself to bed around 8pm and slept through until my alarm this morning.

Feeling a little better today.

Glad to hear it, Gud. I'm not good at not being hard on myself, so I constantly have to ask myself, "Would you forgive someone else for making this mistake?"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

In the hopes that posting about it will make it happen:

Dear car dealership, send us the title so we can get the car registered! Sheesh.

Dear internet commerce orders that have yet to be delivered, get yourselves delivered!

Dear me, edit that dang editorial.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Dude, what's going on?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh crap. WTF

I'm contributing a couple bricks to the virtual wall around Tim Curry now.
