Plumb Loco

So the plumbers showed up at 10-ish, coming from the wrong direction. Big Mercedes van. They took a look in the toilet and agreed something was rusting somewhere, but it wasn't in the toilet itself.

Theory was something made of galvanized steel was in the pipe system. They pulled the back steps away so they could inspect the pipes, and said I had all plastic piping, but it's a mess down there and like the repair guy said they would have to rip off a lot of the siding to get under there. And it probably is something minor, or upstream (HOA's problem). They put everything back in place and didn't charge for the call.


Watched most of Madeline Albright's funeral on MSNBC then CSPAN and finally YouTube to hear Biden, both Clintons and Madeline's daughters speak. Well worth it. Got to say, though, it was disturbing to see an Episcopal ceremony when she was born a Jew. But apparently she did not know that until she was in her 50's.


TMZ, PTI
The local news channels are hyping the NFL draft, which starts tomorrow evening. Way too much hype. I'll watch on TV. There are park & rides, free, but the fan area is far from the red carpet. And there isn't much space to watch as it is.

Irony: There will be a lot of wind tomorrow. Drafty on draft day.

Fried the last 2 eggs for breakfast. Potstickers for dinner. Lunch was berries.

Ordered a water filter for the fridge.

Superman & Lois has gone off the deep end. It's ugly, they are in a backwards "Bizarro" universe where the characters are unpredictable.

Clipped my nails and made a mess of them. Maybe get that repaired tomorrow.
