Sadness

i know a broken coffee pot isn't usually something to be upset about. But it could be if it's an $80 stovetop cappuccino maker that won't make steam come out of the steam wand. In fact, it makes me VERY sad because the 1970 La Pavoni Europicollo Chrome Lever-Pull Espresso Machine doesn't make very good steam to begin with.

I tried cleaning it, and that didn't help. And i certainly don't have the right tools to take it apart. So i'm sad.

On top of that, daN is off to Portland for the night and tomorrow to get his computer fixed with his brother. I guess i have to take what time i have to myself, even if this isn't the time i wanted it. Make lemonaide, right? At any rate, it's good practice for when i'll be at Kripalu for 9 days.
