sureiToday's part of the renovation (this time of the studio (we are never done~)) involved pulling all the chair rails and base board and paneling off the walls. Towards the end of it, it was just Mom and me, and we got annoyed with the stupid stupid house builders and the gap under the window and the like, and we were all, This is the last piece of siding, rawr! and hauled it off, because no paneling can withstand the might of the valkyries! Or in this case, the demolition women.
Except there was a little more siding, hidden by the door, so we had to take care of that, and then we discovered that we still weren't quite all done yet because there were a bunch of nails in the wall where that not-last-after-all piece of paneling was.
Mom: *gathering wood to toss out the back door* I guess when I was being Demo Woman I just forgot about the nails.
Me: *hauling on nails with end-cutter pliers (they are the most awesome tool ever)* Demo Woman doesn't care about nails! That's clean-up, and clean-up is for men!
So there.
