i’m afraid i’ve been living in somewhat of a state of disarray the past couple days. there’s been an overhaul of the plumbing at my house, and i wasn’t fully prepared for the amount of destruction it would entail. or, rather, the amount of dust and dirt that would be kicked up as a result. i have big holes in fives walls, everything in my office is a disorganized mess.  shelves are empty, the contents piled in the middle of the rooms and covered with a thick layer of dust. i’m lucky i thought to cover the computers and hard drives with garbage bags before the sledgehammers came out.

still, the plumbers were nice enough to let me take their pictures during the lunch break. i managed to talk nine (out of twelve) of them into doing it. we had a short window before the sun came out in full force in my driveway and ruined the light, but they all seemed to have a really good time. when the foreman/inspector came out today he was talking about how all the guys went back to the office talking about their pictures. that’s really a great thing, i’m always glad when i get to do that for people who don’t ordinarily get this kind of attention.

thanks guys. and the water pressure’s great.
