Words to live by
Mar. 13th, 2005 09:19 pmThere is an old saying "Measure Twice, Cut Once" which, after careful consideration I'd like to add the following to:
"After all the measuring, cutting, remeasuring, discovering that your measurements were fine, rechecking and discovering the toilet-roll holder is just designed badly - just find a long screw and attach the whole fucking thing directly to the wall."
I have also, today, put together a CD shelf, attached a bolt to the bedroom door (to keep out kittens at 3am) and attached a bookshelf to the wall (Edinburgh flats being sadly lacking in right angles).
Tomorrow I shall put aside such physical things and return to the more ethereal world of C#.
