Ying and Yang
Apr. 5th, 2012 04:54 pmToday had a fair amount of suckage here at SDHQ. The house cleaner came just as I was hit with a major work festuche. The house cleaner wanted to chat. I needed to focus on work. It was a bit stressful. She finally got to cleaning and left me alone pretty much.
Then she started the vacuum which was the loudest vacuum I've ever heard in my life. I thought I would go nuts... until, she finally blew a fuse with it and I lost my internet access (cause, of course, the fuse she blew was the same one that the router uses)...
So now I have an electrical issue. Last Summer I learned to not run the air conditioner at the same time as her vacuum. Today, I didn't even have the air conditioner in the house, much less on. The new living room lights were on, though.
I need to do some heavy duty testing. I need to pull the air conditioner out of the terrace closet and turn it on while the living room lights are on. If they can't run at the same time, I am calling Mr. Cute Electrician back for a fix. I'm ok if it's only the vacuum. I can turn off stuff while she does that. But I gotta have lights. I gotta have air.
Today has been way too much of a bitch to do any testing today. Tomorrow maybe. I need to find a time when I have time to do it and don't need the router or internet connection. But I need to do it soon so I can yank the electrician back. And I must do it before the air conditioner is mandatory.
Work just shagged my ass all day. I think, at the very end of the day, I caught a break, figured out why stuff was getting rejected and got help to fix the worst part. So I decided to stop for a bit and do something else or stop until tomorrow morning.
So I stopped and remembered to check the Apple refurb site. They had inventory!!! Just the exact one I was looking for at the exact price. Yeah!!!! I ordered one for Ann to give to Ron. It will be here in plenty of time. Lots of time. and I can quit worrying about it. Yeah!!!
And my house is now quiet. And clean. Nice. Very nice. Pork chops for dinner. Yeah.
