Through rain, sleet... but NOT slurry coating
Yesterday, when we got home from the show we saw, I discovered that our mail man is too lazy to deliver mail to our short (for those of you who haven't seen my street, it's only about 7 houses on each side and this is southern California, they're not far apart) street when the street couldn't be driven on, since it was being slurry coated. It's not like my neighborhood in Pennsylvania where there were no sidewalks. We have sidewalks - he could have gotten to the mailboxes. He just chose not to. I guess I should know better than to expect him to - no one walks in southern California. Fortunately, we had nothing urgent going out in the mail, but it was still annoying.
In good news, our bathroom project is finally done (just needs wallpaper we haven't picked yet). The mirrors are really cool and everything is great. Now that they want their final payment, perhaps they'll address David's issues with the discount they thought was fair since he had to completely re-do the heated floor and the money he saved them because he was smart enough to a. know that the installer messed up and b. fix it before the tile was put in, since they would have had to tear everything out and re-do it if he hadn't.
Our built-in cabinets upstairs are being installed this weekend, which is cool. The LCD screen that'll go on the wall in that room won't be bought for years, but at least the surrounding wall will look great. :-)
We got our pre-season tickets for the Kings today. Hockey starts next month!!! Yippee! And, the Yankees are doing great for the end of the season and it looks like the playoffs will be set up pretty well for them. Perhaps this will finally be the year that the Yankees win the world series this millennium! GO YANKEES!
