asthran | House renovations and Konzertfreude: God Module

It's been an interesting week.

Last week I came to the realization that my feet were not simply sinking into the luxurious softness of my bathroom rug, but they were also sinking into the floorboards. So I contacted one of the Jill-of-all-trades on site, and after scouting it out on Monday, she and her muscle/runner began work replacing my bathroom floor on Tuesday.

Unfortunately, what she anticipated would be a fairly simple two-day job turned into something of a fiasco because the people who installed my sink and aftermarket toilet were very certain that they were permanent installations. The sink cabinet was screwed into the wall from the outside (with the screw heads only accessible from underneath my aluminum siding), and the toilet bowl flange was glued to the pipe below it, which in turn was glued to the black water tank. Dealing with all that has added about six hours and $200 to the project.

End of day one. Not much completed yet, spent most of day dealing with cabinet. Mid day, day 2. Everything that needs to be removed is removed. End of day, day 2. Came home from the concert to find my bathroom looking halfway normal again, yay! Placeholder for project end picture.

Then last night was the God Module concert. The person who was going to come with me bailed at the last minute, so I ended up giving away his ticket to a random couple at the door who seemed to be taken aback that it was a special event and not just a random no-cover Church night. It was a fun show, but I don't know if it was the 6 hours sleep, the stress of the house repair, the stress of trying to find someone else interested in going to the concert, or PMS, but I wasn't really feeling into it, and left the club around midnight.

Otherwise, I've been doing a lot of sewing, and I've had a 50% success rate of getting to the Monday night dance class. It's been a good show, but damn I can't wait to get to CO!
