I'm open letter-y today...

Dear people at the March of Dimes:
You don't need to send me sob stories about preemies in order to convince me to fundraise for you. I know; I've been there.

Ummm...
Somebody give Evgeny Plushenko some drugs, 'cause I think he's spazzing out. What the heck WAS that? Massively fast footwork and slow but intense music? Not into it.

Further adventures in home ownership

I <3 foaming drain cleaner. Given the sheer amount of hair we found in the kitchen drain, it shouldn't be terribly surprising that the upstairs bathroom had a very, very slow drain. And it only got slower with time, to the point that it would take a good 5 minutes to drain when M shaved in the morning. We'd tried regular Drano to no avail, and we can't take the trap off and clean it manually because it's a pedestal vanity and it's not really feasible to get in behind it. (I'm sure a real plumber could do it no problem, but not us.) Foaming Drano, however, worked like a charm.
