The House Elves are dead...

I think the cats ate them. They're supposed to come out at night and clean up, right? Put stuff away? Fix things? Yeah, the cats definitely ate them.

Didn't get the Appliance Fairies, though! We had to buy a new washing machine. The old one still worked, but the spin cycle died so clothes would be clean, but soaking wet. It took several go arounds in the dryer to get things dry. That meant that one load of laundry took 3-4 hours. Just one load. We had enough extra left over from the bills to buy a cheap washer so we did. We didn't get the nice blue enamel front loader on a pedestal, like we wanted. We pretty much got the cheapest of the lot, but hey, it'll wash...

At any rate, we hauled the new one home and installed it in the laundry room. We hauled to old one out to the curb. The City has a "white goods" pick up on Wednesdays, so we just had to call the day before. No bother. The damn thing disappeared between 8-5 the next day. The Appliance Fairies picked it up. More power to 'em.

In other news, I found out a few more details about the firing of "S", the drunk waitress. The manager did not want to fire her, but rather suspend her for 3 months. I'm not sure what good he thought that would do? Anyway, the bar owner nixed that plan. Nay, nay fluffy. She's gone.

We've seen her almost every night since. Completely drunk. It just verifies that she has a problem. A serious problem. And she's only been applying to other bars for a job. She needs to stay the hell out of bars. She's on a downhill slide, and is going to hit bottom fast. I really hope she is able to get help.

And, this whole time, I've been fighting this stupid sinus junk for weeks. I'll start to feel better that BAM, sniffling and sneezing again. I'm so tired of being sick.

Well, it's time to go to work and see what excitement today holds.
