Win day number two!

Today the plumber came and fixed the shower faucets (they were dripping cold water on my feet whenever I'd shower, which is every bit as pleasant as it sounds), and also the water level in the toilet. When we got the floor repaired last spring, or whenever, the landlord had re-hooked up the toilet with the wrong something in the wrong place. I *knew* he'd screwed it up because it was different after he'd finished the tiling. Mom told me I was crazy. Ha! Anyway, it's awesome now. Took the plumber one flat minute to fix the toilet, yay! I got to hang out with the landlord's three year old kid while the landlord hung out with the plumber, so I got to play trucks and hear about why drawers should always be closed (because kitties might get inside them). Yay!

And I went out earlier and bought stuff for dinner tomorrow, as mother is speaking to me again. Apparently Thanksgiving is on!  There's only the two of us, so I bought a small rotisserie turkey breast, all the fixings, and mince pie and apple pie and ice cream for dessert. We had the same kind of turkey last year and it was good, so I'm pretty psyched. Thanksgiving is my very favorite holiday. What's not to like? It's all about food and parades and sloth.

Win! 
 
ETA: The landlord is a super nice guy, and I have exactly zero complaints about living here. He's just not the handiest. He admits it himself. In fact, once the plumber fixed the toilet, the landlord turned to me and said "Tell your mother *I* did it! She won't believe it, but it's worth a shot..."

Yay! Thanksgiving dinner for you! Your mom has a way of doing a hail mary save at the end of the day when a holiday is involved. Glad you'll have a turkey day.

Mother = crazy. Sigh.

One could argue that drawers should always be open, because kitties might be inside. This does, however, lead to tippy dressers and filing cabinets.

So, closing drawers is good, so long as you check for kitties first. Also refrigerator doors.
