So I was going downstairs to my office with a glass of very red wine after dinner as Amanda wanted to show me something on my computer. Unbeknownst to me, piglet was hidden on one of the middle steps and I almost stepped on her. Fortunately, I missed her, but unfortunately, I sprayed the contents of my wine glass on the wall of the stairwell.

I was able to get the stains out of the carpet, but mysteriously, I could not get the stains off the wall. Even though we had painted the stairwell a dark orangy-brown color, the long wine streaks are very very obvious. And there are a lot of them. Damn.

On the positive side, we did have to put another coat on the stairwell so I have to repaint it anyway eventually, but now it looks pretty bad. Alas.

Here is where Amanda has been living in New Mexico.

You can see an aerial image here. The trailer is on 1st Street and is the second one from the left end.

I thought this picture was pretty cool. Well, maybe it was cooler in real life ™.
