They replaced our toilet and shower head and added a "window restrictor" like I mentioned before. If you can guess from the title there are some high points and some low. We got a toilet like Ryan had mentioned where it's got a high pressure plastic tank and goes "boouh" every time it flushes. It sort of sounds like a far away sonic boom. From now on I think that I will refer to it as the poo canon vortex.
The bad thing is the shower head. I'm all for being good to the env., but I still have to get clean. I went for a shower last night and after 20 minutes of frustration I left the shower slightly damp. It wasn't a pleasant experience. I am going to get a new one and swap it out asap to something that I can actually clean myself with. *grumble*
The other thing that they installed was a "window restrictor" was was a little piece of metal screwed on with an allen key so that you can open the window 4 inches. Now in the summer I want to open the window all the way so I took it off. I'll replace it before we move out. I couldn't understand why they would put those on windows "not over the balcony". I thought that it was to prevent people from jumping which is dumb because they can just go out to the balcony. My mom suggested that it's probably to prevent kids from falling out by accident (which makes sense).
Now off to waffles and shower head shopping.
There was a very young kid who fell several floors from an apartment building in Ottawa (last summer, I think) after climing on a piece of furniture and out an open window. Kids'll do the darndest things.

ReplyDeleteHi Samy. This site is basically a public web log (blog). I use it for brain dumps and to write about things that are going on in my life.
ReplyDeleteNew people are of course welcome, I just don't know how interesting other people find the random thoughts in my head.
Have fun ignoring school. ;-)
