Yes, we do. At least today's appointment is close by.

That helps a lot. I'm lucky enough to have my hosto within walking distance. Makes a lot of difference.

It exploded? Sheesh, at least your life isn't boring, but couldn't you have gone for a fun kind of excitement?

Yep...exploded...Water and mud just splashed through the frigging walls. We had to redo the entire plumbing. A 1K we really didn't have.

Heh. If you'd left it alone, maybe you could have called it modern art and charged admission.

We were considering leaving it alone. The issue is, though, it was in such a bad shape it took away value for the house. So the 100 bucks investment will give us back a few Ks at least.

Hmm, Quebecer seconds must be longer than American seconds.

I sent it to you half an hour ago...did you ever get it?

Pfft. Nobody told me anything.

Only Jen saw it...the gossips are all over the ng and IM... I stopped counting the messages saying "You did WHAT?". We even started a religious uproar. Rock on.

Yeah, but I'll be walking there in the heat of the day. Blech.

I was kinda joking. Exploding bathrooms aren't really something I could stand to do nothing about.

I sent it to you half an hour ago...did you ever get it?

Nope. Are you sure you sent it to the right address?

I just checked my mail again. Your re-sent mail just got to me. the original's still out there in the ether, I guess.

Heh. I'll go read it now!

Ah yes...I have the tendency to forget heat exists. We're having no summer.

Heh. I'll go read it now!

On a scale of 1 to 10, how badly am I going to hell now?

And damn I totally underestimated the work it'd be to take off that old wallpaper after it has spent like 20 years stuck to the wall.
