Reply #2: I've missed all you [View All]

and those witty/insightful/insane comments and stories throughout the show. I can't tell you how much I've missed all of you. I've also missed hearing/seeing KO. It has been like hell. We've had so many problems with the house that most of my days have been spent either waiting for someone to show up to show them what wasn't working or running to the library to use the computer to find out who to call about the latest mishap with the house. I think we've got most of the kinks out now.

I've learned a lesson about renting a house from a do-it-yourself'er who isn't very good at it. I think the first clues I will look for next time is the number of upside down electrical outlets and/or the number of electrical switches with no purpose. I feel like that guy in the commercial who asks his wife/girlfriend what this switch does. As he flips it up and down the neighbor's garage door is going crazy. There are four switches in the bathroom and we can only find one that does something.

It an ironic twist, the first thing I saw on cable was a commercial for some movie where a family moves into a house and then the house falls apart on them. All of a sudden it wasn't that funny of a premise for a movie. We're getting settled in and I think we've found all the holes in the fence that the dogs can fit through.

More than anything, those of you who post on the KO forum seem more rational than most of the rest of DU right now. I know it is primary season but it has really gotten ridiculous around here. Thank all of you for a sane refuge on DU.
