    I spent damn near the whole day doing Erica's bidding yesterday. Lame! On the bright side, I taught myself how to wire a light fixture and came away unshocked.

    I hate doing that kind of stuff. We we moved in our house, we had a problem with light bulbs breaking off in the socket. So it was me, with a pair of pliers trying to unscrew them. Never once got shocked but always fearful.

    I know the breakers are off and all, but for some reason there is still a little fear when you grab that wire lol. Regardless, she's happy and I'll be taking payment in the form of extra golf.

    I have had some potato success. The needle nose works but is both difficult and kind of scary. I'm not fond of electrocution.
