It's important to note, there's no such thing as residential basements in Texas. Too much limestone. This is the second floor leaking onto the first floor, in the room immediately attached to my kitchen. We're actually really lucky that the problem stayed in there, and not out in the kitchen proper.

I'm tired of thinking the sick feeling is going away and then waking up to barfing. I felt sick last night and threw up, then couldn't sleep because of the indigestion. Woke up this morning feeling like shit and I just need a nap.

You know what they say about naps....
No one is going to give you a nap. You just have to TAKE ONE.

Yeah. It's just a bit tricky with a three year old running around.

Duct tape
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duct_tape Duck Tape® Just a peeve o' mine. It's kind of a sticky subject, but please don't come unglued at my obsessive need to make sure everyone knows the difference. No hard feelings? Come on, I'll buy you the finest scotch on the shelf. |

I know the difference. And I would usually use the generic term. But Duck Tape is real, it exists, it's a brand, and it's way funnier in this context than duct tape. You calling me Higgerant? Just because I don't use no fancy R symbol...... Heaven help the next person to say kleenex when they mean facial tissue And you better not be taking any liberties in future when making teh funnies.......

Meh. It's just tape. Of course YOU knew. I was doing a public service for all the morons who might be running around.
I get poetic license. I use it when it's really funny. |

I was cross for about a year about a typo in a book I read. The killer used duck tape. Duck tape?! OMG way to kill a creepy atmosphere with a stupid mistake. Duck tape indeed.
Even after I learned it was valid I still resented it for breaking the mood.

The fridge part of our old fridge-freezer broke. We recently got a newish one from my mum, but now the freezer part of that is broke, though the fridge still works.
It could, obviously, be worse, if we had zero of one function and two of the other. :P We will have to trek over to the garage to get anything frozen though, lol. I bet we keep this arrangement up for about the next five years.
