Apparently I’ve Been Busy

Wednesday, July 26th, 2006

That’s the only way I can explain the utter lack of thought I’ve had towards writing something here :D

The ceiling is now entirely fixed (took a couple applications of mud, then sanding and painting. I am very pleased with the work, too, which is good. I also really like the contractor, Mike, he did a good job but was also easy to work with and considerate, etc.

Hmm… well, for now I guess that’s it.

White Noise Makes Me Sleepy

The sound of the fan droning on and on and on… zzzzzz

It does make one rather tired. “Why’s it running?” you ask. Especially since the A/C is fixed.

Well, it’s because the ceiling in the bathroom is finally getting fixed. Since there’s no vent, the fan is there trying to help the “mud” dry. That’ll be especially important over the next couple of days when due to showers and such.

Anyway, it’s …. zzzzzzzzz

WOOO

Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. The crisis is over. The A/C is on.

They’re (going) up now :)

Check the events section of the Gallery in a bit (it’s 12:45 now - probably no later than 1 will be fine).

[Edit]
And then the A/C guys called and I left to make sure that they could get in and hopefully (dear god, hopefully!) fix the A/C.

I’ll let you know how it goes, but the pictures really are uploading now.

No AC = THE MOST ULTIMATE EVIL

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

Argh! No A/C is an evil that should not be visited upon people in climates like this who don’t have houses built around the concept of no A/C.

Boooooooooo.

Thumbs down.

Duh-Duh Dun!

I did it. I bought an X-Box 360 yesterday.

They did a LOT of work to make it better than the original. The controller (wireless) is great. The X-Box Live Arcade is a really good thing, too. It’s great for the “casual gaming” aspect. I’m at work so this all sounds ridiculously choppy.

I mean, Mom, it has Zuma even ;)

Tomorrow… or Like 10 Days

Ok, ok, yes, the pictures/video of the storm are late. Like. Um. Way late :)

Anyway, there actually aren’t many. One photo and one video. Linked here for your viewing pleasure.
