Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a surprising twist that made you want to shout, and now it is time for you to post until the twisting and shouting cows come home.

So yesterday, I took the time to put my new vanity into my little downstairs powder room, and I did it all by myself!  However, nothing's actually hooked up yet.  I still need to get some silicone sealant, two flexible connector pipes, and the drain pipe.  Fortunately, those are all fairly inexpensive and in stock.  Then, I'll have a working sink again!

Post by: George on February 26, 2023, 12:36:22 AM
Here's what it looks like...but don't look too closely at the floor.  I have to get a whole new floor for the entire downstairs and that's not going to happen for quite a while.  Anyway, here's the vanity:

I also still need to put up the mirror that my sister gave me, but I needed to know how the vanity fit in there before I could figure out where the mirror would go.

Post by: George on February 26, 2023, 12:39:56 AM
It's not an incredibly "special" design, but it was on sale for about $300 off, so that definitely was the deciding factor!  Good enough for me!

I am alive. My neck is still a bit stiff, and my body is aching, but all is well. I am really grateful that the fall could have been serious, even deadly, and I came out of it pretty much intact: no blood and no broken anything.

Even though I felt pretty bad, three cats give no damn. I still had to feed them and myself, then clean up mess we both made, and give them their treat before I could strip down to my skivvies and chill out.

Around 7:00, I started thinking about today. I would have preferred tp stay in bed all day, but Annabelle, Thatch, and Stella care little about my health, so I decided to sleep late as I dared: 6:15a.m., and I set the alarm. brushed the catys, and went to bed at 8:00.

Post by: elmore3003 on February 26, 2023, 04:28:11 AM
And at 9:30 my neighbor called - she's getting an email today - to tell me she had lugged up two cartons of Chewy.com and they were outside my door. The call gave her a chance to let me know what hell it was on her health as well.
Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: elmore3003 on February 26, 2023, 04:29:22 AM
Well! I never asked her to drag those cartons up. I knew it was something I needed to deal with today, and if they sat in the lobby for a couple of days, so be it.
The Petsmart, Petco and Chewy cartons never get stolen.

Very true, DR elmore3003. And the "Trump Water" he was handing out was discontinued in 2010, meaning the chemicals in the plastic bottles have been leeching into that water for 13 years. It is recommended not to drink water from plastic bottles that is more than 2 years old.

Very true, DR elmore3003. And the "Trump Water" he was handing out was discontinued in 2010, meaning the chemicals in the plastic bottles have been leeching into that water for 13 years. It is recommended not to drink water from plastic bottles that is more than 2 years old.

Yes, it was.  That also means that the song "Bad Cinderella" is now the title song.

I was at a Fuddrucker's exactly once, and I liked it fine but they disappeared after that.

This one was in Westport or Fairfield. A friend and I stopped in there one day during the first year I was living here, so, 1989-1990. I don't know of any other location in this region, but I haven't looked, either. Are they still in business?

So now some mother trucker in the professional weather guessing business is saying we could get as little as three to five inches or as much as two feet.

Hello? You can't do ANY better than that in forecasting? Yes, I know it's two days out, but come on.

For now, I shall hope it's one of those hyped up storms that sometimes happens late in the season, and turns out to be nothing at all to write home about. I've seen a few of those in my time.

Agreed.  I usually set my phone to airplane mode, so my alarm on it can wake me up.

Will attempts be made?

To get us to TEN?

It may be impossible.

They say it can’t be done.

Are “they” right?

After storytime, the kids and I usually watch a couple short videos.

Tonight I showed them the “I Want To Eat Your Face” segment of The Creature Wasn’t Nice.

They enjoyed it. Though I had to tell them that we later find Dr. Stark was not actually eaten.

My son wanted a rather detailed explanation. I came up with the idea that it turns out the people the creature eats are merely absorbed and later when the creature is defeated, everyone he ate returns to normal.

That will have to do for now.

Someday he'll learn the truth.  Hopefully, he won't mind being lied to. ;)

It’s so damn funny when Dr. Stark is entering the glass case with the creature, and they’re yelling to stop him, and Leslie Nielsen blurts out the line Cindy had said seconds earlier, “This creature wants to eat the face of history!”

I suspect he already knows.

But I'm about to get ready to go out into the wilds of Tumwater in search of hoses and pipes so that it can be a working vanity...and earn its keep!

So, I did go to the local Home Depot, and I actually went twice.

I didn't get everything the first time, so I went back to get the screw part thing that connects the pipe that comes out from under the sink to the pipe that comes out of the wall.
Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: George on February 27, 2023, 12:08:00 AM
When I was there the first time, I didn't know what size to get.
Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: George on February 27, 2023, 12:08:45 AM
So, I came home and measured...a 1-3/4" screw part thing.
Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: George on February 27, 2023, 12:10:15 AM
HOWEVER, when I went back the second time and looked, they only seemed to have 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" screw part things!

Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: George on February 27, 2023, 12:11:16 AM
I looked all around, but didn't notice any larger sizes.
Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: George on February 27, 2023, 12:11:52 AM
I think when I go back, I'll have to ask someone about it.
Title: Re: TWIST AND SHOUT
Post by: George on February 27, 2023, 12:12:35 AM
My friend Shelly said that she'd go with me so that we both can look around before asking.

If it turns out that they don't have the correct size, I wonder if it might be because standard sizes have changed since my place was built (1987).

1 and 3/4 does not sound like a common pipe measurement.
