Home alone

The wife's at work, the dog's dead and the cats have gone missing -- which is code for saying I'm home alone. Tonight I have a party at the home of the chairman of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce, and a dashed fine 'do' it should be too. Before then I have to complete the reinstallation of the toilet and handbasin in the guest bathroom and go and order the glass for the shower walls. I must also practise, practise, practise the CBEST examinations. Funny - I had a dream last night in which I was desparately cramming to get ready to take final exams in *physics* for my Masters degree. Why physics? I had to drop that at school because the maths got to be too hard.

Oh! I also see a honey-do list on the whiteboard. Better stop blogging and get productive.

Stale old stuff

Today I have revamped my website. Big deal! Well, the old one was looking very jaded. And what better way to launch a fresh line of interest than to add a blog to my home page. So here we are. Neat format, huh!

The shower. You need to know that the refurbishment of the shower is a project which has stretched out over 15 months. It's not that we foray out into the world each day smelly - because we do actually have a bath. But the shower has been out of operation for all this time. The full story must await another blogging accasion. All we need record here is that today I sealed the grouted joints between the tiles. This means that we are a mere stone's throw away from final completion. Tomorrow I will re-install the toilet and the hand-basin, and also order the 5/8th polished glass that forms part of the shower cubicle. I kid you not, this will be one of the finest showers you have ever seen. Not the largest, but the best. In fact, give us a call, come round, and have a shower. Be my guest.

I have a rotten code in by dose. Going to bed.
