So, the guesthouse is about a week from being finished. It's been 13 months. I had projected 3. The entire budget was demolished by the electric work alone. It's been a real learning experience. It looks great!
Here's some related/unrelated stuff I learned this week:
The Red Hot Chili Peppers are great live - thanks, T.
I am not ready to be broke all the time as a full-time artist type.
When you remodel you can become more attached to your house, even if you think you're a Buddhist.
People think of each other at the same time.
You can forgive aggregious acts if they happen to you, but not so much if they happen to those you care about, or to victims of unjust wars.
It really is only money, unless you have none.
You don't have to buy a new phone - you can just buy a new battery.
Verizon will let you get a "new" before "two" if you're a "merit" customer, whatever that is. You merit more debt? A longer contract?
I found out I have excellent credit and my first purchase idea was a big screen tv. Sigh.
Old NovaNet lessons are so much worse than anyone could have imagined.
After 7 years of Spanish in school the only thing I do fluently is eavesdrop.
One can never have too much thinset in the house.
Brand new roofs (rooves?) can leak.
August is cooler than June. Is THAT part of global warming?
Rescue Me is some damn fine tv.

Wow-the things we learn. Glad to hear that the guest house is almost done. How's the front porch coming along, I mean with the heat and all?
The front porch will have to wait until the guest house is finished!
You could resolve your grammatical conflict by writing... A new roof can leak.
You're welcome. :)
