No horse things this morning, it was grey and I wasn't motivated. Instead, I hung up my new (see-through) shower curtain, which had twelve holes reinforced with metal grommets, using the twelve adorable shower curtain hanger things (metal shiny metal with balls on them), the entire assembly representing a vast improvement in shower-time technology for me. Yay! I was particularly delighted that the shower curtain had twelve holes and the shower curtain hanger thingies came in packets of twelve.

I also made pickled beets-n-eggs to use up the damn eggs before they started to whine about wanting to borrow the car. I also washed the dishes and read that damn Hot Six novel Liss has been after me to read. It was a pleasant wank, more enjoyable and more competently written than the vampire romance novels. God, those sucked. This was better than those, but still not something I'd pick to read myself.

If a shower curtain is an upgrade, I desperately fear what you were using before!

My father has been after me to read the Stephanie Plum books (author evangelism is a big thing in my family). I read the first one at his prompting. It was pleasant, and the mental equivalent of candyfloss. It melted away, and six months later I couldn't begin to tell you what the plot of the thing was...

Oh, I had a shower curtain before this. It was just blue plastic (the bathroom is green) with plastic grommets (read: tearing out) and plastic blue not-shiny-metal hangers that did not slide easily on the shower curtain rod. The new shower curtain, in inoffensive clear ("clear" is an inoffensive color), has metal grommets that do not tear out and it is hung from shiny metal hangers that slide well. I see this as a substantial improvement over the previous system.

The reason I'd had such an unacceptable shower curtain was that it was free and I was waiting for it to wear out so that I could justify the twelve or fifteen bucks for a new one. I honestly didn't NEED to buy the metal shiny metal hangers with balls but they were very cute and not horribly expensive.
