When the rain comes.....

Our sukkah party on Sunday got rained out. Boo!! Although, it's fortunate that the rain started as early as it did -- we were able to just call people and let them know not to come. Could have been much worse if we'd all been outside in the sukkah, hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill, and THEN the skies had opened up!!

It basically rained straight through from early Sunday afternoon until yesterday morning, and then off and on a bit yesterday. So our sukkah is still waterlogged -- we haven't been able to use it at all yet, which is a shame.

Work is work -- my project today has been installing Windows 7 on my PC. Installation process went fine, and so far it seems relatively stable. I still think the icons, menus, etc. are too "fancy," compared to the simplicity of Windows XP. It hurts my eyes whenever I spend too much time looking at a Windows Vista or Windows 7 desktop. I suppose I'll get used to it, eventually. Win7 isn't released until October 22, and UAB hasn't officially approved it for use yet -- too many incompatibilities with some campus systems. So I'm not sure when I'll start seeing it on a regular basis.

Gotta run home at lunch to meet a repair guy. Our water heater is leaking constantly via the check/overflow valve. We already had this problem fixed about a year ago, but it's back. I wonder if the water heater is dying? Homeownership is so much fun!!!
