Fume-ageddon
Friday afternoon I got a call from our counter guy. He offered to come by our house to install counters - they'd just come in from the factory.
I figured, hey let's get this over with. Hours later, I was in a haze, listening to men talk in hushed tones in the kitchen. I had no idea counter installation would stink quite so much.
Epoxy is smelly. On Saturday morning, after a good fume-induced slumber, (don't worry - I'm not going to become a huffer) I awoke to plumbing duty. More fumes.
Deeps and I successfully installed drains, faucets and made connections. So far, no leaks.
And tonight I have a new sink, swanky counters and a flashy new faucet. I feel like I could conquer the world.
That may be the fumes talking.

How about pictures?
Good point - I'll try to post pictures tonight. The problem is I doubt that they'll look that different on screen from the old counters. Before we had black laminate counter tops (kinda fake granite pattern) and now we have actual black granite. But I'll give it a shot.
