A few days ago we got an end of year statement from the Aviva thing that Gerry sold us last fall. It looks to me like it is a lousy deal. I spent a lot of time this morning on an email to Travis asking that he explain it a little for me. If it's as bad as I think I'll just cash it in. It will be a large hit, but there's no use throwing good money after bad. We'll see what he says.
The toilet seat in the master bath was in bad shape. The covering had cracked and worn off in several places. I decided that it annoyed me enough to replace it. I measured the length, width, and end size of the current one.
So after picking up the mail we went over to Home Depot. It turns out that there are only about three standard form factors for toilet seats. It also turns out that they don't cost very much. So we got a replacement for $20.
We stopped for a late lunch at Cheddar's. I like that place. On the way home we stopped at Circle C. Lucy did another fine job of retrieving. Then we went to Tomlinson's to get cat and dog food. Lucy got some treats.
When we got home I put the new seat on. It took surprisingly little effort. The old one came off easily - I expected it to be rusted. The new one fit perfectly. It doesn't match exactly. I think that's because the toilet is a little discolored from age and the seat is brand new.
After that I looked for something to watch on TV. 57 channels and nothing's on. So we watched a Batman movie that I taped awhile back. It was 2 hours and 45 minutes long. It was pretty entertaining, but also pretty predictable. Batman has angst, super criminal threatens Gotham, Batman snaps out of it and beats criminal after being beat up by him first, Batman returns to angst (or disappears).
