I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Updatery

The installer was supposed to be here at 3 or so. They called at 3:30 and said they were running late and would be here at 5:30 or so. At 7:30 we called. They were just finishing up the previous installation. They would call us when they picked up our dishwasher. At 9:05 they finally called asking how far away we were from the store. You could hear the air go out of him when I said, "About 45 minutes."

So we rescheduled. He apologized. I guess every installation today went wrong. With our dishwasher being nine years old, he figures he would probably be running all new supply and discharge lines. Fair enough. But now it's another week.
