rowynI don't really have much to say, I think. I'd do some more reading but not much has been posted on my friends list since this morning except links, and my work blocks half of those anyway. Especially the religious ones. Apparently the web-blocking software we have equates religion with pr0n.
It's not been a good week for me so far. I'm still waiting to hear back from Amy about the house. Angela was trying to talk me out of buying a house with a septic tank. I prowled a bit on the web, and it seems like -- as long as it's okay now -- it's not that much of an issue to maintain. "Regular septic tank maintenance" appears to be "flush some solution down the toilet once a month". Big deal. So I'll have it inspected and not worry about it if the inspector doesn't report a problem.
Assuming the seller accepts my bid.
Well, I've been at lunch 30 minutes now. Might as well clock back in.

Not cheap, not pretty. But, it works.
