Saturday - D-Day. The Big One. The Moment of Truth. To M, this is the big, exciting event we've been working toward; the day we finally get to install our cabinets. To me, it's the day of dread when we discover how badly I screwed up the prep work.
Got five cabs built and four installed. I was skeptical at first of the chinese-made, assemble-yourself cabs, but I gotta say, after putting a few together with the instructions they give you, I am dead sold on buying custom cabinets made here in America. I want an I-phone app that'll locate an idiot with an engineering degree and email him a phhhhucking clue. Thanks, baby, for the neck massage. Now stop, will you, I'm gonna spill my martini.
Sunday - To Beverly Hills to check out a Jenn-Air range we found on craigslist. Looks like a good deal.
Zippidee Doo Dah Day. Awesome deal on that Jenn-Air range. Stainless steel, dual ovens, five burners, self-cleaning, and matching microwave range hood for just five hundred bucks! I love the internet! Thanks to craigslist we got to see that beautiful stove being dollied out to the street by the guy who bought it juuuust as we pulled up to the house. Damn cheapskate. Why doesn't he go buy a new stove and quit messing up my day?
Monday - Drawer cabs built, one installed. Someone oughtta inform the June bugs flying through the house that it's only May.
Tuesday - Two more bad boys in.
Wednesday - One more down and one to go. Days are getting hot.
Thursday - A sink and faucet and we're ready for granite. Feels like every cell in my body is screaming, 'Eee-nuff !'
Friday - M has verrry good taste in faucets. Her taste in sinks, more simple, so the budget is intact. Sheila's sniffing out jerky treats hidden throughout the house. Hey, Sheila, go find the steak knives, will you? I can't find 'em anywhere. Granite in the morning. Glass of wine and I'll be out like Black Galaxy. That's the color of the granite; do I have to explain everything?
