Getting ready for our trip to Mexico City/Mazatlan tomorrow. Hope the lines at the ATL airport aren't too long.

  • Slept pretty darn good. I'll take it.
  • Out of bed at 7AM and started travel work.
  • Just finished a bagel and opened another Diet Coke.
  • Travel work for the next few hours
  • Head to rent house to continue cleaning cabinets. The good thing is it's the bottoms so I can sit on my arse while doing so and not stand on countertops (still have a little to do on top but not much).
  • Watch Aggie Baseball BTHO AGAIN out of tu on the tube.
  • Watch Aggie Softball BTHO AGAIN out of Ole Miss on the tube.
Do the day!

Stupid cat woke me up at 4:15.

Did some paperwork.

Went grocery shopping.

Ran some miles.

Should do something productive but probably won't. Not looking forward to doing my taxes tomorrow.

Anyone have any idea what this is?!?! It's inside the rent house cabinets. Mostly in crevices.

Like what on earth. And it smells but it sure it's the curry smell. Almost like a very strong French onion smell



Maybe it was some kind of glue that absorbed the food smell? The seem to run in pairs.

I'm not making fun or sticking it, but did yall seriously not detect that stank before buying?

When we were house shopping we had 3 distinct homes that were obviously from an Indian/middle eastern home that we spent less than 20 seconds in bc it was baked into everything

This.

I had an employee whose clothing and backpack smelled like curry. Always.

Have a co-worker in another group that comes in with clothes that smell like curry to the point I think they might be cooking in the closet.

That stuff is unmistakable.

As for the stuff in the crevices, maybe some kind of bug poison/bait that you squirt in crevices so it's out of the way but also along a path they would travel?

Yes. It didn't seem terrible. And I was told an ozone machine would get the smell out.

Obviously that wasn't the case. It is definitely better than what it was. Having to get to the root of the problem is taking a long time, but I think I have most things done.

I can tell you that I never will buy a house that smells again though.

One thing a lot of people don't realize is an ozone generator requires a constant supply of fresh oxygen to work properly, so if you run one for a long time, the amount of fresh oxygen in the room diminishes and it produces less ozone. Whenever I've had to run an ozone generator for more than a couple of hours, I connect a shop vac hose to the intake and run the other end to a window.

I'm going to order some Chinese food and watch a documentary (ok, YouTube video) on the 2018 NCAA wrestling championship later. Does anyone want to come over and watch it with me?

Looks like roach bait gel.

I've always wondered about your obsession with wrestling. Did you wrestle in school?

I coached at the high school level so I appreciate your posts and try to catch as many matches as I can. I am hoping to score some event tickets for LA 2028 but I fear I will be priced out.

Went to bed earlier than normal

Woke up thinking it was time to get up. It was exactly 12am. Went back to sleep

A few chores this morning. Then some errands. Then met my wife for late lunch/early dinner at Marfa Texas Kitchen. Pretty tasty

We got some rain. Not a lot but we will take it

So I'm pretty sure what I posted earlier was some kind of cabinet glue. My guess is over the years. It just turned dark and absorbed whatever the smell was. Essentially, they were in the exact same spot in every cabinet.

Currently, I'm shampooing the carpets. After this, I really don't have anything else to clean. I still smell it, but I mean it is what it is. But it's rented. I may try to use the ozone machine one more time now that I essentially feel like I've gotten to the root of all the original smells in the cabinets.

When you are at the rent house and you don't have any silverware or plates or anything, you drink wine straight out of the bottle and have some Kroger sushi to go with i.

And yes, I drink cheap wine. Don't drink cheap liquor, but I drink cheap wine.
