Simple Pleasures…

I’m pretty pumped.  We have a microwave.

I know what you’re thinking - “Zack, is the addition of an everyday appliance really blogworthy?  And “pumped”?  What has happened to you in NYC?”

Of course, none of you carried this microwave through Hurricane Hanna-induced wind and rain.

And you didn’t try and drill holes into the wall above the stove only to find that there’s a cinder block wall behind the 1/2 inch of drywall.  A cinder block wall that was inpenetrable to my simple drill bit.

You weren’t there when our super, George, came up to help out and ended up drilling three silver dollar sized holes in the wall before figuring out that not only was there a cinder block wall, there was also a steel stud complicating the task.

Thus, it wasn’t your kitchen that had said silver dollar sized holes in the wall for a solid week when George took his precious time to come back and fix the job.

So yeah, we have a microwave.  And we’re pretty pumped.
