I had to go down to my house with my Dad to fix the faucet in the shower. It was quite a job! We had to rip out some of the tiles, cut the pipes, re-sauder the pipes, fix all the leaks (which took a few attempts and had to cut one of the pipes again and install new pipe and joints), re-drywall, re-tile... it was quite the job! Took us 4 hours in total. It was so great that my Dad helped me, I had to pay for the parts ($120) and then I bought him a case of beer for all his hard work. We also had to replace a light fixture. So it was a long morning! But, everything is fixed, so hopefully that will keep my tenants happy for a little while at least. Sigh, ownership of an older house... lots of upkeep required! I just can't wait until I move in and have everything just the way I want it.
I'm headed off to my company's Christmas party in a couple hours. Should be good times! I think I'm going to drive to this one. It's a cash bar and I don't really want to spend the money. Next Saturday is my department's Christmas party, and I already scored a ride with someone else to that, so I can drink that night.
In other news, since lj went on lavalife, I decided I would give it another go. So, I've been on again for a few weeks. I have found a lot of cool people and I have a date on friday to meet one of them. Of course, now I'm doing the whole nervous wreck freak out thing. He wanted to pick me up, but since I barely know him, I thought it would be better to meet there. We're doing to a local pool place/pub for a couple beers and some pool.
It's a busy time of year!
