Well, I put out the e-mail announcing the first Even Saturday game night in a long time... doubled up with a house warming! If any of you readers might want to come play games with us, give me a ring and I can clue you in.
One of my first acts as a homeowner was to have my air conditioning units serviced, you know, preventative care and all that. The ARS maintenance guy, however, says he found leaks in both coils! Not good! Expensive!
So I put in a call to the Home Shield folks and they had ARS put in a service call. Well, this guy comes and says the coils are fine, but a valve is whacked -- so he fixes the valve. But hey, what was with the $3,000 repair they twigged on yesterday? Are they just jerking my chain, or what?
I'm waiting for my answer now... we'll see.
Actually the FIRST thing we did, last weekend, was breeze through some yard work. Now we need to find, beg, borrow, or rent a chipper to reduce some of our ex-trees to a compostable form...Death to Pyrocanthus! And, umm, that dying poisonous tree in the other corner... and trumpet vine! Who in their right mind plants trumpet vine?!
Ooh, I did pre-testing yesterday for 1st brown (pre-black, doberman sash, whatever). Tomorrow I do the long form for testing. Hope I stay calm... I hate it when I get nervous, it messes with my form.
Since they only test for black in December, and I don't have enough time to make it this December, I guess I'll go black sash in 2006. There are six folks who may test this year, though...
Oh, and I started school again with CS121 -- a continuation of CS111, it seems. The first quarter of the class was trivial beyond compare. I may finish this one in four weeks, a new record.
