What are you doing right now?

Thinking about what I want for my birthday on Saturday lol. My parents keep asking but I’m scared to tell them the $40 something dollar yeti cup lol. And of course tools money and gift cards. Also thinking about what’s for dinner tonight after grandmas hopefully the Chinese place will be open.
 
I finished up watching Spider-Man "Far from home" and "No way home" with my Son about an hour ago. He's seen "far from home" but I haven't, so I had to watch it to know what's going on in the newest movie. They're good movies if you're into that kind of stuff.
Other than that, nothing. It's a dreary, cloudy, rainy weekend here, in other words, a good movie day.
 
Getting ready to heat up a Banquet spaghetti and meatball frozen dinner. They are MUCH better than
Stouffer's (Nestlé) Though I do tolerate Stouffer's Swedish Meatballs with Egg Noodles or their Salisbury Steak with Macaroni and Cheese.
Banquet - A retired guy with no working income $1.48 lunch

I am out of Huy Fong Sriracha - the "adult" Ketchup in the room made in So.Cali and stinking up the neighborhood.
A drizzle of that red chili sauce is fantastic on meatballs and fried chicken breast strips.

Note: for correct scale, the plate shown below is a tea cup saucer :)

As little as possible. Sitting here trying to stay awake since I had to stay after this morning to the tune of a 16-hour day to 'train' on what amounts to a point-of-sale credit card machine that a 10-year-old could have figured out with a picture manual. That extra 4 hours will put me at 40 hours in 3 days. Donotlike.
 
Looking at vehicles and getting ready to go to Advance Auto and get the caliper bracket for my dads Camry. Everything went smooth till now went to pull it out to grease it and realized it was stuck. I can’t get it to budge at all.
 
Right now, I'm telling myself that I know better than to get involved in plumbing projects.

The 'crossmembers' in my tub drain rotted away, so I just pulled out the plug. Can't stand the sight of the drain hole, so I watched a few tutorials about how to replace the drain.

They ALWAYS make it look so simple. I guess they work on drains that are only a few years old in the videos, because this went very differently for me.

Got busy with the drain extractor, and twisted the drain pipe right out of the joint to the pipe going into the foundation. This led to having to cut a doorway in the sheetrock in the 3rd bedroom. So, add some sheetrock work to the tally. I'm tempted to install a trap door instead of sheet rocking the hole back up.

Finally managed to get the drain unscrewed from the drain pipe, by sticking a long screwdriver in it so it would hit a wall stud when it tried to spin some more. It's finally out, and I'm off to Lowes to buy a new drain pipe and drain. I sure hope I don't end up having to call a plumber for this.

This is not where my skills lie. Don't know why I even pick up a wrench when it involves plumbing work.
 
Streamed some of the movie Jailbait, one word BTW, staring Sara Malakul Lane. TV-MA. Quit watching it when I saw boobies. I like prison movies but this seems creepy. Free on the Tubi app.
