Stupid Appliances

It must be Friday. To what do I owe this amazing piece of super-secret information? To the fact that I am COMPLETELY unmotivated to accomplish anything that needs to be done. This can only be explained by the immenent approach of the weekend. It’s elementary, my dear Watson!
Our washing machine is broken. Sears wants $55 to come out and look at it and give me a quote or $185 to gaurantee a fix of whatever’s wrong. What the hell is that? It’s like the guy was threatening me with the possibility that fixing this thing is going to be terribly expensive. But, I think it’s more likely that it is a bum electrical connection. But, since he’s only going to come out to assess the damage, that probably means they’ll charge me $55 again to come back and fix it - plus parts, labor, etc. etc. $185 is about 1/3 of the original cost of the machine, though!
In the meantime, we’ll have to probably impose on Becca this weekend to at least do some underwear. (Hope you don’t mind, Becca.) Grumble, grumble.
