Finally got the carpet in the middle bedroom up. (Roomie’s been on Vicodin after dental work, so work slowed a bit.)

Who the _hell_ needs to tack the carpet down with nails ever four inches along the walls? _Two_ rows? And two rows of nails, one inch apart, every one- to two inches? And rows of nails six- to 12 inches apart _in the middle of the room?_

Aiyiyiyiyi… I’ve just spent three hours pulling the carpet up, plus the indoor/outdoor carpet someone used as a pad, and then labouriously pulling up rusty nails from an under-layer of brick-red linoleum. And breathing gypsum dust. And sweating.

It’s like something from [There, I Fixed It](http://thereifixedit.failblog.org/).
