Grey Wednesday
We're having a terrible weather week here, it's rainy and grey and quite cool considering the heat wave that we've been having. Most days we'll be lucky if it gets up to 22C. That being said, it's easy to understand why I feel I need a nap at 8am. Had a quiet evening. A painter came over to look at the place and gave us a stupidly expensive estimate. The painting's not so bad, it's the price to repair all the holes and cracks and nail holes in the walls. We will try a few other people and see what they charge. If it's really out of the budget, then we'll just attack it room by room and maybe get someone in to fix some of the bigger problems. Our new diningroom set arrives some time today, tonight we get to clear a space for it and set it up. Steve's dad and brother are leaving tomorrow morning, I wish that they had more time to visit.
A.I. sounds like it's worth seeing. It is a shame that Kubrick didn't live to see the project through, his cheesy bits were always mouldy and sure to lead to traps.
