Another sleepy, non-eventful day

susandennisI got the building manager to come up and look at the toilet because 1. I wanted to make sure that whatever that toilet was doing wasn't going to flood me or my downstairs neighbors and 2. I wanted him to know of the issue because I really don't trust him not to come back and bite me in the ass with it down the road. He assured me - barely looking at it - that the building was in no danger. I told him I had bought a new one and am having it installed.
(He has this 'thing' for policing residents who don't follow the rules he makes up after the fact and in secret. Yes, I can go to the board and I sure will if I need to but mainly I wanted to front end and hopefully mitigate his shenanigans.)
I haven't heard from Amyworks which kind of annoys me a little. I'd love to get a 'got all your emails and am waiting on info before I schedule your job' or something. I think it's because I sent the request in email to Amy and really should have used the web form, but I had attachments! Anyway, I finally bit the bullet and called. Monday afternoon. 3 or earlier. Yeah.
I went to the farmers market which was really a disappointment but I'm glad I went and found out. I stopped in at the new store - also not a thrill. Again glad I went and found out.
The Mariners lost to Philadelphia who's team is way worse than ours. They beat us 2 out of 3 games. I always suspected that at our suckiest - which is where we lived for many years - it was so humiliating to lose to us. Now I know I was right. Off to Boston next. They are having a horrible season as well, so I suspect they will beat our pants off. Sigh.
After lunch I was sleepy again and slept for about 45 minutes. I hate naps! But, at least now, at 5 pm I'm no longer sleepy. Old people are supposed to need less sleep, not more! Not fair.
I ordered another soundbar for my TV. Every time I investigate how to make hearing my TV better, the answer comes up soundbar. I bought one about a year ago and could never get it to work with my TV and TiVo so I sent it back. Today Amazon had a deal on a Yamaha that promised easy connections and, indeed, after I read the start guide and the manual, it does look pretty straight forward. Reconditioned $139. If it doesn't work, it goes right back. It comes Friday.
My little girl wonder pitcher is pitching again right now. Her Little League team is from Philadelphia, too, But her's is a Philadelphia team I really <i>want</i> to win!
