Well, 45 minutes and $200 bucks later, I have a kitchen faucet that is connected to the water pipes and doesn't leak. I should go to plumbing school and become a plumber. Although, I have to say that I don't think I have the physical strength to do some stuff. The nipple I couldn't get off. Yeah, this guy had it off in less than 5 minutes. I think I loosened it for him. Anyway, I've got water in the kitchen and I'm a happy camper. Now I can fix the faucet in the butler's pantry.

Halloween Horoscope for Virgo

Eh, Halloween is not exactly you favorite holiday.
You costume is usually pretty simple - if it exists at all.

Costume suggestions: A scary mask or whatever you wore last year

Signature Halloween candy: Tootsie Pops


Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday. It beats Christmas!
And I always have a costume! Even if I just put on my tiara so that everyone doesn't have to guess if I'm a princess or not.
Bad horoscopes! Bad!

Huh?

So along with all the move people calling today I've been getting calls from people looking for Joan. None of us have Joan anywhere in our name including the dog, cat & turtles and to my knowledge none of the previous phone number holders were named Joan. These calls should simply be a "sorry wrong number" type of deal, right? Oh no, I've gotten in response "are you sure", "but I called [my phone #]" and some version of "she just gave me this number". So I was thinking that it is another collection agency looking for someone until I get the lady who interogated me then hung up, twice! The conversation went something like this after my "I'm sorry but I think you have the wrong number":

Weird Lady - is this {my phone #}?
Me - Yes
WL - Are you sure Joan doesn't live there
Me - very sure
WL - I'm a friend looking for Joan
Me - but this is not Joan's phone number. Maybe you have the wrong area code?
WL - You're sure Joan isn't there?
Me - yes
WL - Maybe I dialed the wrong number.

She hung up and called back!
Same conversation.

So do ya'll interogate the person on the other line when you dial a wrong number? I don't, at least not past making sure I reached the number I thought I dialed. And my other pet peeve is when the wrong number caller wants to know who you are. I'm not giving out that information. It was just weird. Oh wait, there's the phone. I wonder who's calling for Joan now.
