thanate: (darkkerrigan)
Feeling seriously besieged by the construction; the floor tile is not happening (as they said yesterday they were going to do today) but there are two electricians cutting in smoke detectors in the upstairs bedrooms. Apparently current code requires you not only to have smoke detectors in all bedrooms & the upstairs hallway, but that you have them wired in, so that when the power goes out you can knock over your candles & burn the house down undisturbed. Ok, whatever; but it means that there is currently no place in my own house that is a) warm, b) containing a table of any sort, and c) with a door I can shut between me and the guys wandering up and down the stairs to their tools and chopping holes in the ceiling.

The logical thing to do would be to decamp to the library, but I deeply resent being driven out of my own house, and the urge to stick around so I can growl at people and guard it is strong. Also, I'm not sure what the evening plan is for today, as [personal profile] grauwulf mentioned staying late to work on homework at the office, but I'm not sure if this is happening or not.
