When it rains, it pours

So yesterday afternoon our hot water heater leaked and overflowed through the ceiling into the kitchen.

No hot water, on top of no AC, on top of a broken leg.

Ain’t life grand?

Here’s the evidence

$I\'m so sick of posting x-rays of my insides on this site.$

There’s the break at the bottom of the smaller leg bone. It could have been a lot worse.

UPDATE: Here’s some pictures Leslie took with my cell phone in the Emergency Room. I’ll put them after the break, so that the squeamish don’t have to see if they don’t want to. Continue reading I broke my leg.

Closed

We are now homeowners. We did the closing today. It took around 4 hours…

I can’t believe the shelling out of imaginary money is over. Now the shelling out of real money begins.

It feels good though. It’s going to feel better when we have water and an AC that works.

Congrats to Catherine and Marc

Regular elbuzzard reader Catherine got married over the weekend to a real nice guy named Marc (yes, with a C).

The reception was a blast. The ham was delicious, and Leslie was thrilled that there was antipasto with olives and such, claiming that “Catherine knows what you need to throw a wedding.”

We forgot to ask if they were going on a homeymoon.

I hope you two are very happy for the rest of your lives.

NFL Alumni?

So apparently the car that parks on our new street has a bumper sticker that reads “NFL Alumni.” Leslie and Beth noticed it last night.

Who could it be? I really hope it’s Joey Harrington.

How awkward would that be if I was mowing the lawn in my Harrington Lions jersey he walked out? Since he’s not exactly an “alumni” just yet, I think it’s a pretty slim possibility.

It’s probably some bum ex-Falcons player from the 1980s.
