So get this - the city sent us a letter a few weeks ago, stating their intention to replace our water meter and desiring us to set up an appointment for said replacement. Fine. Whatever. Appointment made.
The friendly lady from the water department came, attempted her work, pronounced it not good, and announced that, prior to replacing the meter, we would have to shell out for a plumber to come replace a valve (also involving the tearing up of concrete around selfsame valve). If this work were not completed in a timely matter, friendly lady informed, our water would be summarily shut off. We would then still have to pay for a plumber, and from thence the meter would be replaced and our water restored.
So, curiosity being what it is, I inquired as to the reason behind replacing the meter at all. Friendly lady said she didn't know, it was possible it was faulty, but more likely, said she, was that "some of the new girls in the office were just generating random lists".
WHAT???????

Once again proving that women are evil.
Big plumbing wins another one, it seems.
I think the folks at the water department are some kind of miracle workers - they got you to update your blog!
A pox upon the sons of Belial who insist on beefing about perfectly good meters. Reptiles!
Ha ha ha, they were probably paid off by some under-world plumber, in order to extort funds!
When do you plan on updating?
Seriously, it's time to update.
Come on Janna. When are you going to update?
