ups and downs
This weekend was good. On friday I tried changing my serpentine belt in my car... but I just don't have the strength to loosen the nuts on the tensioner. So I ended up taking my car to jiffy lube on sat and having them replace the belt. :(
But I was able to return the belt that I had purchased when I thought that I would be able to do it myself. So at least I wasn't out that money. :)
Then I went down to Los Lunas and got my hair cut and colored. I now have plum colored hair :D
Sunday I did nothing :D I watched movies and then I watched it rain. I watched FF7 Advent children. Which I wondered why I bought it after the first time I watched it. But after this last time I found more storyline than had been evident the first time. It is still mostly an eye candy movie, but at least the story made a bit more sense this time.
After that I watched disk 7 of X. For a while I wondered how the series would compare to the movie. And now I can see why people said that the movie was butchered. There is just so much more depth to the characters and the whole story in general with the series than could ever be expressed in a 2 hour movie. Unless this last disk (8) horribly disppoints than X (the series) will be on my must own anime list.
Of course to counter a relatively good weekend something had to go wrong at work this morning. When I got in I saw that the water tank had run completely dry over the weekend, which had caused the circulating pump to overheat and melt some of the pvc fittings around it. That left us at least 2 hours unable to sell water while the fittings were being repaired and the pump primed. And the ice chest is doing something funny, which we can't figure out. we have bags of ice melting in the cooler. We have a thermometer in the cooler, and it reports that the temperature is below freezing, yet the ice still melts. The only thing that any of us can figure is that heat from the room is making the temperature higher by the door, but even that really doesn't explain it.
OK, enough of my babbling. Laterz ya'll.
