• The big 4th of July party was on the 3rd so yesterday was my hangover day
• Cafe Ayer today because I couldn't drink it then
• Rainy AF yesterday so fireworks are probably delayed until whenever
• It's actual summer now so I'll just stay here indoors until sometime in late August
• Kids are supposed to get dropped off any time now

Have fun out there!

• Couldn't get my lazy ass out of bed to walk
• PT
• Shower door shopping. Those frameless bastages are expensive.

But they're totally worth it. No more nasty corroding aluminum along the bottom of the frame!

- Yes, back in the office today.
- Only have to make it through 2 meetings this morning, and then it's smooth sailing the rest of the day.
- What's for lunch?

I am 44 today. No gifts please. Just cash.

We know your waist size. What's your age?

I haven't been a 44 waist since 2nd grade.

Today is my Wednesday
Probably talk to some coworkers later
Eat lunch around noon

Ours are running $1300-1800 plus $500 for installation

That doesn't sound too out of line, assuming this is a corner shower?

• 6+ hour drive home yesterday seemed to go by pretty fast.
• We listened to Hamilton on the way, which helped.
• It was so nice seeing my partner's family this weekend. I hadn't seen his parents since before COVID hit.
• We are going to be in the 100s this week, and this is historically the hottest week of the year.
• Pick up library books later.
• Eye appointment this afternoon
• Visit more family tonight at dinner.

Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday! I too, was born in 1979. If you could have anything today, no money limitations, what would it be?

lol olds

... wait a second I was born that year, and my birthday is before both of yours

- Bongiorno buttholes
- lovely day in Siena
- some unbelievable swangers in sundresses
- back to villa for vino & swimming all afternoon
- ciao gaywads

Try calling Diamond D Glass out of Canyon Lake and see if they are doing some jobs in Port A right now. They normally go down there frequently and they have the best pricing for frameless glass showers.

• Pups up at 5:40; Beagle #2 chose violence
• Went back to bed with snuggles from Beagle #1
• Made some delicious coffee
• Summer hiatus has begun
• Ordered my textbooks for the Fall; learned about a new racket that rents textbooks to students at a ridiculously inflated price that exceeds the cost of buying them outright.
• Jazz audition prep

What kind of beagle violence?

Sometimes if we don't get up when she wants us to get up she will aggressively rip the covers off of us and yank them all the way to the foot of the bed.

Wow.

We refer to it as "rage fluffing." She does it with her dog bed as well, when she wants to get fed early and we tell her no. She drags it all over the house.

New walk in. Took out the old builder one, expanded, tiled, etc…..

I'm having a little trouble imagining, how many doors + sides are glass? I think mine ran $1,250-1,500 installed but it's been a few years now.
1 door + 2 glass panes

You have a towel rack heater in your bathroom? I thought that was a Europe only thing

How much it cost to install that rain shower? Looks incredible

Back to the grind today

Seattle tomorrow for a work trip

Nope. Three walls of tile. My main contractor remarked that the doors I'm looking at were at about half the price just 3 or so years ago.

• Back to the grind
• WFH today and I'm sure glad.
• Few meetings, one that just got put on my lunch hour when I was gonna go to the gym
• Tons of work to do this evening, have a 49 room wedding gotta get all the docs out for
• Have a great one!

Lunch meetings are ridiculous.

These people are confused if they think their blathering is more important than people having a break in the day to eat or go to the gym or whatever else they want to use that time for.

I forgot how much work sucks, and just life in general

I did the actual install, and the whole bathroom excluding the countertops and shower glass of course. I'm pretty sure the valves, rain head, body sprays, wand, and temperature control came out to under $5K. This was 5 or 6 years ago.

Heated towel bars are all over build.com, that's where I bought this one from. Walls were already open so running wire was no big deal. Heated flooring was also no big deal because I reused the circuit from the jetted tub I removed.

Ouch. I heard that phrase a lot too during the big project I had to contract out last year. I hated being caught between trying to beat increasing material costs and interest rates starting to increase vs. waiting it out a few years to see what happens.

Go Frameless and doorless, its much cheaper. Lol

PT this morning. Slowly making progress on flexibility/range of motion. Spent the last 10 minutes cranking out 11 watts on the seated stationary bike. Felt good to have my legs moving like that again, even if at minimal power.
Happy hour with the bike guys tonight.
