her name was Neda
Jun. 20th, 2009 11:09 pmThursday morning was great. I went swimming in
brienze's awesome pool, didn't sunburn myself, and ate a ton of delicious sushi. (Made with real sushi rice, thank heavens.) I went home to roast some corn on the grill for Mike's snack Thursday gathering. That's when I discovered water seeping out of the ground next to the house. I proceeded to have a small meltdown, imaging the worst catastrophes involving plumbing and the slab and the foundation. It was not helped by our asinine home warranty that does not want to cover anything.
A visit from a plumber, an air conditioner repair guy and many phone calls later it turns out the water is seeping out from the drain of the AC unit. While not insurmountable, it is a pain in the ass, uncovered and required digging a trench through the yard. Joy. It is not as bad as I first thought thankfully.
I'm sick, and I don't know why. I wonder if it is a psychosomatic reaction to following the news from Iran all week. I've run out of green shirts. I need to do laundry. Her name was Neda, by the way. The girl we watched bleed to death on our computer screens and on CNN - her name was Neda.
