Boo-hoo.

I've been stuck down by a morning migraine on friday and after being shooed home from work, the migraine turned into a 2 day temperature hike. I haven't seen anyone all weekend except bumping into some friends at the hardware store which was an emergency trip after my shower broke and needed replacement pronto. I've been conjuring up nightmare scenarios if I couldn't replace the shower, seriously i don't know my neighbours well enough to jump into theirs, such is the problem living in a one bathroom apartment. So this weekend, with an unshakable temperature, I drove to the hardware warehouse (my first SOLO trip, and second time ever), got blokey advice with the item, bummed into some friends in the outdoor lighting aisle, and came home with a spanking new shower head and some white tape that does something I'm sure. Only to find that I need a new spanner so I drove out again today to another hardware store (TWICE in a weekend, who would have thunk it). So I successfully replaced my broken shower and now I have to make room in the storage for my growing collection of tools which I'll probably/ hopefully never use again.

ps : tool shopping is boring... but look what i got in the mail the other day! Vintage flask. Woot!
