   Wow. Cold water faucet came apart, new bibb washer and O-ring, back   
   together fairly undramatically. Things like that make me feel like it's   
   a trap.   
      
   Hot water faucet was leaking. Lime build up on the splined stem for the   
   handle. Handle is not cooperating. If I force it too hard, this 1950's   
   vintage sink faucet will be impossumble to find parts for.   
      
   Been applying CLR and rapping the handle. Let it sit for 20-30 minutes   
   then repeat the process again. Slow and steady wins the race... I hope.
