don't let the door hit you on the

This is the Story of a Door.

This is our current front door. I hate this door. 
I really, really hate this front door. 

So, off to Lowes we go to shop for a new one. 
Here is the hardware we pick, I like a lever handle as opposed to a dinky "knob". Just looks classier.
Oh, and that's Gavin shellaxing in the cart. Hi Gavin.
This is the door Emi wanted.
This is the door Jason wanted.

We both agree on a black door. 

This is the door we ordered. 
Jason wins on door style.
 Emi wins on "knob" (read that however you choose).

The Jason gettting excited when he finds out that Lowes has a 10% military discount. 
Then Jason gets sad when he realizes we could have saved like $1,400 dollars on our kitchen if we only would have known that two years ago...


We get the "Peppercorn" finish. Which is a fancy door way of saying "Black".
No kidding. As soon as we get home from Lowes after ordering the the new door, our doorknob on our current (ugly/hated) door decided to split. 
Like, the screws fell into the hole or something. I don't know, the stupid thing is psycho. Good riddance you freak.
Special order. 
(literally) ship it in on a barge. 
Cost twice as much as it would on the mainland. 
August 4th to install. 
But I can't wait.
See you August 4th.

Oh, and of course, I'm still mad about my iPhone.
