We needed to get the kitchen painted this weekend so the contractor could start installing the cabinets. Nicole was sick so that left it up to me. Saturday I got the ceiling in the kitchen and dining area, and the ceiling in the living room primered. The Wagner Power Roller helped a lot since I [...]
Saturday my left nostril wouldn’t stop draining. I figured some plaster dust got up there and was irritating things. I went to bed at midnight at got up at 2am Sunday morning because my nose was still a mess and I kept waking Nicole up.
So I watched Moonlighting and Hell Boy and sorted recycling. [...]
The Hebrew Hammer – Parody of the blaxploitation style with lots of Jewish jokes. I thought it was really funny and I’d say check it out. You probably won’t miss too many jokes if you aren’t Jewish.
Grandma’s Boy – Half geek comedy, half stoner comedy. Not great, but it has enough funny throughout. Mostly made [...]
Monday the bathroom got coats of primer and we were going to paint but we didn’t make it to the paint store before they closed. So Tuesday Nicole painted the bathroom. Yay! It looks good!
Today had a number of good things:
The bike cages at work were activated again so we can lock up our bikes (scooter) again.
The Coke machine has been so allowing coins to flow through it very well fo rthe past few weeks. I generally dislodge them with a coffee straw and get a free Coke. Today [...]

Avoid hot women buying offering you drinks.
Avoid creepy old men, who knows what they want?
Avoid young men, they just have work on their mind.
There are no old [...]
The VW was towed today by a car donation agency (a few hours later than the window they set up). It hadn’t been started in three weeks. We jump-started it and it was running rough, and if the jumper cables were removed it would die. Looks like the alternator died while it was sitting there. [...]
I took some pictures of the kitchen backsplash, and the tile we’re going to use in the bathroom.
This afternoon we should be able to paint the bathroom.
We have hot water now! The plumber came back yesterday to check into the lack of hot water problem. He experimented with running a temporary dedicated gas line to the water heater, but that didn’t help though he did determine that out gas pressure was a little too low, especially if the house heater is [...]
Hang ‘Em High
The is the second old Clint Eastwood western I’ve seen, the first was The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. I think I liked this one better. The characters feel real and have difficult decisions to make, even the minor ones seem to stand out.
The Family Stone
I just wanted to say that I [...]
