Plumbing Woes

Initiative and self-reliance are fine things, but there comes a time when you have to realize you're just being a stubborn damn fool. Accordingly, today we called in a couple of plumbing professionals, who promptly fixed in an afternoon the stuff we've been struggling with for the past month. Now, don't get me wrong -- by doing the work we did, we saved ourselves probably several hundred dollars -- but I'm really glad that someone who knew what he was doing finished up the job.

Tomorrow I get back to work on the writing. Really.
