For the very last day of Nablopomo this year, it would have been fun to have something exciting to write about. Alas, as today was my Friday off from work, I spent a majority of the day at home, waiting for workmen to arrive. The contractor was supposed to come out and install the interior stair rail today, and we’d scheduled the washer and dryer for a preventative maintenance check (seeing as how they’re nearly ten years old and haven’t been serviced probably since I bought them).

The contractor never showed – not sure if he forgot, or we goofed on the date, or what. But the appliance guy did eventually make it out. He replaced some kind of little gadget on the washing machine transmission, and showed me how to balance the machine so it won’t keep dancing all over the laundry room (and causing leaks) and replaced the hoses (which apparently are supposed to be replaced every 5 years. Oops). He also pronounced our dryer in extremely good condition. So now we’re good for another ten years, I suppose (or maybe we’ll remember to get the things serviced more often).

I had dress rehearsal for the concert this weekend. After the rousing success of the previous concert, we decided to do two dates instead of one; now it appears that we’re pretty much sold out for both concerts this weekend. It’s a very nice position to be in, for a group as relatively new to the scene as we are, but it does make a few of us wonder how soon we’ll be going to multiple weekends of shows, instead of just two shows on one weekend for each round.
