Shit ! I kinda promised myself I’d write something here every day. Well I meant to last night, but was tired. Not like I ain’t now, but have to just do it.
Sittin’ here munchin on some TJ’s stone ground yellows. Really had a sweets craving, but nothing in the house remotely sweet or chocolate or even close. Oh well, kinda late to be eatin’ anyway… Just got down from the garage, well I guess it’s not a garage anymore. Lemme fill you in-
I have a detached garage up in the corner of the yard and I’m turning it into a cottage to rent out. Typical construction nightmare so far. Every unexpected snag that could happen has. Had to trench over a hundred feet to tie into my septic, another trench almost as long to bring water and cable/phone. The whole yard is rock ledge so the guy runs the backhoe has had lots of fun.
I’m having some guys do the carpenter type stuff as I don’t have time. And I’m doing all the plumbing, heat, and electrical. It’s coming along nice. I put a giant skylight in and it looks great. Doing a cathedral ceiling with eyeball high-hats over the living area and gonna do those little halogen mini-cans for task lighting over the kitchen. Spring comes I’ll do a little patio in front and plant a row of arborvitae for privacy. Seeing as how it’s all new it’s actually nicer then the main house! But I’m working on the house little by little. Hmmm, now I think of it, I’ve been working on it little by little for the last 10 plus years. Oh yeah, did I remember to tell you to NEVER by a really old house with the quaint crooked floors and lots of “character”. I didn’t? Well don’t!
The SNL anniversary party was tonight, not that SNL, if you know me, you may know what I’m talkin’ bout. But I haven’t been in that party mood lately, so came back here after a meeting and started runing the water lines up in the cottage. Finish them in the morning I hope and then start pulling wires.
Stopped off and had dinner with “dented-can” guy, my usual place, Soon-Ei is off tomorrow so I figured let me stop by and say hello and grab a bite. She’s been working seven days a week lately, so glad she got some relief at last. Come to think of it I kinda work every day too, and there’e no chance of me getting a break anytime soon, but it’s all in the name of progress so I see it as working towards something tangible. Which is indeed a change for me…
Shit, there’s so many good movies coming out and I haven’t got time to catch any. Maybe I’ll see two movies christmas day, make the most of my day of rest, huh? Wanna see “Personal Velocity” with Kyra S and Fariuza B, it sounds good. And of course “Gangs Of NY”, but that I’ll take Sam to see with me.
K, I’m gonna go crash before I eat anymore of these chips and/or the sun comes up.
Found some cool links, I’ll post them tomorrow, promise.
AND – tomorrow I will go off ona deep ass tangent- what the media and technology has done to make this current generation even more fucked, and also, why is sucks having crushes (no, not unrequited love, simple crush we’re talkin’) and also, why really nice people confuse the hell out of me, K?
alright, catchin’ some ZZZ’s, l8r…
