The oven is fixed! And there was much rejoicing. We called the local appliance place (because the last time we tried to get Sears to repair anything it was an extended technicolor nightmare) and they originally scheduled for today, then were able to fit us in late yesterday. It was a bad igniter and cost much less than a new range, so that was a relief.

The guy took the door off, turned the oven on, and climbed inside it. It freaked me out a little.


Now I have to take a small angry cat to the vet for a check-up after the dental surgery/distended fang removal she had last week. Wish me luck.


Books I'm reading/want to read:

I've been reading: The Desert of Souls by Howard Andrew Jones, Arabian Nights style fantasy, set in 8th Baghdad but with magical mysteries. Excellent book.

Want to Read: The Winds of Khalakovo by Bradley P. Beaulieu. It had me at the flying boats on the cover.
