you can't hear me now

i lost the new cell phone at the NYE gathering. i'm having cell phone withdrawals. not that i use it the often - it's a security thing.
it's like having the car in the garage for days and never driving it -- but once it's gone, so is the security.
having one's possessions within one's control.
hmm, maybe it's a control thing and not a security thing at all.

either way, it has sure made the start to the new year mighty shitty and pouty and the search is on for a cheap at&t cell phone. freecycle here i come.

and then we were without running water for 18 plus hours over the past day. that's another thing that sent me to the xanax bottle.
the contractors that build houses these days really have their heads up their asses, doncha think?
we got a new, bigger hot water heater, however, after getting it all set up, the glue had to set for about 18 hours. hence, no water because the contractor did not install a shut-off valve to the hot water heater. so the water was shut off at the main inlet.
the good news, it's installed, filled,turned on and putting out hot water.

that jacuzzi is gonna feel good tonite.
