It's been raining here all day. About two hours ago we notice a huge wet spot on the front room ceiling. So into the attic I go.

After about an hour and a half of crawling around in the attic on my hands and knees and pulling up insulation I find the culprit.

A plumbing leak!

Oh, did I mention this is the room where we just repaired ceiling sheetrock and repainted.

I hope everyone is having a better weekend than I am.

/me grumbles off to bed

PS: At least the kitty pics made me smile. :)



Ohhh, Tex! :( *hugs* Sorry to hear about the floor/ceiling/plumbing disagreement. :(

I hope it's...relatively easily fixed....

I finally got around to making my alt look a bit less newb-ish.





The skin is free from Imagen. Shape is mine and Clover's. I broke down and bought the hair from damselfly; I just could not find any free that I would wear.

[ETA]
He was intended to look like a young man of 19 to 20 years old. I think it turned out to look more like a butch girl in drag :o



Hmmm. Well, he does look young. :) I'd say his look is more...androgynous. Looks very innocent. :)

I disagree about the androgynous thing. He IS "pretty," but in a fairly distinctively male way.

In RL, I'd do him . . .

(Even if he is almost certainly a little young for me . . .)

It is Claire! You are behaving in college, I'm sure.

Behaving like what, I'm sure I don't know.

Yes I'm behaving lol. I'm being a good girl, and being pretty boring actually. Haven't been out this weekend. Been a bit bored with nothing to do, yet still somehow haven't had a minute spare for SL.
Missing home a bit now.

Did finally manage to do a blog post though.

I hope you had a good weekend :)

He looks kinda like the guy who lives downstairs from me.

Claire!!! *smiles and waves*

Glad all is going well at university. :) I just went to read your latest blog post, and then had to go look up where Holmfirth is. :) And that led me to a listing for "cheeky seaside postcards" !!! :D

I'm sure I speak for many here - we miss you lots but are glad to know you're settling in at University. Hope I see you when you poke your head inworld. *hugs*

Heya Mo :D

I would have said more about Holmfirth, but I figured I'd babbled randomly enough and I'd save something for another time lol. I do love it there.

I'm starting with a headache - think I'm beginning to get the fresher's flu thing thats going around, but I'm hoping I can get online tomorrow or Tuesday - depends if I can get stuff done during tomorrow daytime. Keep an eye on the hangout hud though, cause that's where I'll end up when I do get inworld lol.

@Tex- sorry about your ceiling, that is a major bummer. Hope you were able to at least stop the leak right away.

@Mo- the guacamole and Mexican food looks YUMMY, but you can have my share of that tabbouleh. It looks revoltingly healthy.

@Claire- hiya! Good to see you and glad you are doing well so far at uni.

@3- so when's the party?

/me groans

Most of my plans for the weekend were shot to hell. I had thought all this week that I was fighting off the flu, but yesterday I realized I HAD it - a mild case - and now I'm recovering. So I go from feeling fine to being exhausted and this fever comes and goes. I'm incredibly tired but can't go to sleep.

It's really weird feeling restless and exhausted at the same time.

Suddenly the sun came out, so I walked around the block, which was the high point of the weekend.

And I keep getting a craving to eat or drink something... but I don't know what. Coffee, which I usually love, tastes very strange.

I'm going to heat up some chicken soup, but I know that's not it.

Hope the rest of you had fun.

Oh, we did get a new TV with a DVR, so that's fun. And last night a good friend came over for dinner, which was also good, but I was falling on the floor by the end of the night.

You may need to replace electrolytes. Tomato juice or grapefruit juice?

Hope you get to feel better soon.

------------------------

I think it's going to rain until next year where I am. Feeling sort of blue and nostalgic, so I'm just going to read myself to sleep this evening with a real book -- that heady smell of ink and binding just doesn't come across in an electronic medium.

Good night, friendly strangers and strange friends.

awww...hope you don't succumb to the bug in the "new germ pool" - that often happens when you move someplace new, or are staying for a while in a new location (like on vaycay).

Just like mom says: Get as much rest as you can, and pump yourself full of fluids! Hope it is not the H1N1, because...wow, that hit me like a ton of bricks. :(

Oh, Seven, I know exactly how you were feeling. (I think) It was a gorgeous day here yesterday and today, and coincidentally, my fever came down, and I felt soooo much better.

Do you have any gatorade in the house? bananas? (electrolytes / potassium)

Cool on the TV/DVD combo! :)

A long story.....maybe with tomorrow's coffee. But I will say it was a nice affair, womderful area, gorgeous beach, and there was a festival in town, so I got to see Joan Jett as a bonus.
