if only i were a plumber...

i'm sure being a plumber has it's fair share of drawbacks (corroded pipes, polluted water, and i imagine a large amount of poop)...but at $180 an hour, why not?  seriously, it cost a ridiculous amount of money to fix a piddly $10 part.  i had high hopes of being able to do this myself, and that's all yesterday's post was about...how frustrating to want to do something and understanding what needs to be done, but not having the capability.  but after wasting time and annoying everyone around me, a pro had to be called.  dang.  but the important thing is it's done! 

and now i just want to run to someplace far away where i won't bother everyone and where i won't have to have loads of money to survive.  Mexico?  maybe i should just go back to India where i can just pee in a hole in the ground!  shudder.  no no no...i don't really want to go anywhere.  but i am definitely eager to be self-sufficient again! 

until then, i'm going up to Stilly to see a Grad school friend.  she is finally graduating and presents all of her Thesis design work tonight at a small exhibition.  can't wait to see her and her work...but i CAN wait to see all the people up there.  it's going to be like a mini-reunion and i'll be the fat, unemployed alum.  great.
