What a craptastic night. We are hoping to have some serious work done on our home and as a result the Mrs. has been having a sort of Open House for contractors. Tonight, a salesman from Empire Today – the large siding and window place – stopped over for a prolonged visit. We have not been so annoyed since the water softener guy from many years ago. That visit ended in me slightly verbally abusing the nimrod until he split. This character was dealing pretty much solely with my wife as I was in the bedroom on the laptop trying to see if Adobe lets you install Illustrator on more than one computer after you purchase it (we are close to buying a new MacBook Pro). Seems he put the hard make-up-your-mind-now sales pitch on at the end and said that he could not guarantee the quote come tomorrow. How freakin’ insane is that? What about the job – labor or materials – will change overnight. What a lame fool. When the Mrs. explained that she would be an idiot not to obtain more quotes he acted like a child (this is when I returned – unfortunately a bit too late to catch the brilliant exchange) and did not say a word as he packed up his glorified girl scout kit and left in a huff. What a professional. Keep this in mind if you would ever think about calling Empire Today for one of those “free in home quotes.”
In cooler news, my gal can snap her fingers – on both hands at the same time too – which is pretty awesome.
Naomi from superdumb supervillain sent this link over to show off her pregnant self in a maternity t-shirt I designed and she won during the OWTK 1st Anniversary Party. If you too would like to look this stylish, head on over to The World’s Fair T-Shirt and Gift Shop. The prices are sweet right now but I can’t guarantee them if you wait till tomorrow. ha!
Thanks Naomi and Happy Birthday to Jasper! I hope everything goes swimmingly for you and your little baby boy!
