Watching a train wreck.

I hung out with some people watching a UFC fight tonight. I’m not a very violence-prone guy and I try to avoid it in most cases, but I get sucked into watching things like that. It’s like watching a train wreck. I can’t look away.

Speaking of train wrecks, I went to look for bathroom fixtures yesterday and found some nice, boring fixtures from Price-Pfister. Unfortunately, my plumber and my contractor told me to go back and find something else. It’s my understanding that Price-Pfister has had some trouble with their kitchen sink fixtures. I went and found something slightly nicer that cost approximately $600 for the valves and fixturing for the upstairs bath. Then I also looked for some fancier things for the downstairs since it gets used much more often and the fixtures I priced there were more like $2000. I think my mom also wants the Toto Washlet bidet as well.

I suppose there’s a big question about why I’m spending so much money on this, but I haven’t had a girlfriend since 2001 so it’s all for me to spend how I want. Although if I ever do get married, I bet my wife will tell me to tear all this crap out and replace it with what she wants, but that’s much less likely than lightning striking me at this point. Especially since I have to climb my buddy’s 70-foot radio tower tomorrow to do some antenna work. Good thing I’m not sober now, but unfortunately I’ll probably be sober by the time I have to climb up that damn thing.
