A productive day

Woke up after 3 hours of sleep; figured it was either get up then, or I'd sleep for far longer than I wanted to. Had to pee anyway.
Got some coffee in me and then got started doing some work around the house. Wrapped Ike's couch in plastic to hopefully help contain any future explosions he may have. While working on the couch, I noticed that the wall outlet was broken. The hallway light switch has been acting up as well, so I made a trip to the hardware store for some parts and played electrician for a little while, replacing both broken components.
Cleaned and vacuumed the carpets. Did multiple loads of laundry. Took the stove top off and sprayed it down with oven cleaner to get the burnt on grunge off (it's still in the yard with a second dose). Scrubbed clean under the stove top. Put parts through the dishwasher. Called my father. Worked on the cash register computer system for the business next door that two people told him would never run- including the company that sold it to him. Just finished putting the finishing touches on it; yes, I have it working properly. It's a $2,500 system and I have no idea how much to charge him. Called my grandmother. Drank two cans of Chelada.
I still need to scrub the kitchen floors and clean the bathroom and replace the toilet seat but right now- I'm bushed. And hungry.
