I busted me knees putting up the suspension rail, built an 83" tall cabinet by myself (which WAS kind of fun), got the King out to help lift--

--and found the rail was two inches too low.

I will be so proud of me when I am done. Studio is still full of cabinet doors. Must. Fight. On.

No cats disappeared yesterday. I scratched the new floor, which now means it's broken in, like pouring a big drink on the carpet and putting out a cig on the upholstery of a new car.

ETA: THE DUMPSTER IS GONE! THE DUMPSTER IS GONE!

I did get a cord attached to the dishwasher (why the plumber didn't do this is a sweet mystery), and put it through its first run, and it performed admirably. It was so quiet, and sounded so unlike a dishwasher, King asked what the noise was. Neither of us is used to appliances that don't sound like a gross of skillets going through a wood chipper.

A note here for myself: turning on the electricity again, and plugging things in was nerve-wracking. I wasn't the only one watching for something to burst into flame. It's like finding a scar a long time after a bad cut has healed. I wonder if it will go away or persist. I know I don't have flashbacks like I used to.

Hope everyone has a great day. I will get around to posting those pics!

I know from experience how much auctions can help both the recipient and the host. The Unscrewed auctions are a direct action to help raise money to pay creators ripped off by Rick Olney.
Now, Rick Olney is hardly the first publisher to rip off artists (you can't have been in comics any amount of time and not seen it happen), but it's the first time I know of that Team Comics has rallied to get people paid.
And this is good.
Tom Stillwell (publisher of Honor Bridgade and fellow CAPE! guest), is putting on a show in the eBay barn to pay bills Rick Olney hasn't. There's loads of good stuff, and it's, as they say, for a good cause. Clicky on the UNSCREWED.

UNSCREWED Auctions.
