After the flurry of NaBloPoMo posts, I really needed a break. But soon after that came my return to the VooDoo, the return of the Saints (WHO DAT!), and a big rush job for myself and Bea, with a deadline of just before the 5th anniversary of Katrina. So, overall, haven’t been feeling overly post-y.… Continue reading I Promised to Stay. I Went Far Away
Not Just Whistlin’ in Dixie
Slowly, Bea is coming over to the dark side. She likes Slayer, and thanks to Guitar Hero 2, the song Thunderhorse by Dethklok (you know, the fake cartoon death metal band that actually puts out really good metal). While in the shower, I heard her whistling what I first thought was a track by Opeth.… Continue reading Not Just Whistlin’ in Dixie
Shut the Front Door! Er, Shutters!
The shutters came back all painted, and were installed today. It’s SO DARK inside!
That’s a Wrap!
Today not only completes my SUCCESSFUL NaBloPoMo experiment, but Peter and Beth’s wedding celebration as well. While their wedding was a few weeks ago, they decided to pretty much keep it family-only and opting for a friends party later – which happened tonight. I’m deeply honored to be a part of this for them, and… Continue reading That’s a Wrap!
2010 New Orleans Saints Season Tickets!
They’re here! If you couldn’t tell, I’m excited! And now, a NSFW song by my favorite rapping puppet, Lil’ Doogie:
Bang Bang, My Baby Shot Me Down
I’m not one who is usually one for giving cards, much less getting them – thank yous, birthdays, etc. I got one from Bea the other day, attached to a thin gift wrapped in brown paper. The outside of the card is your average run-of-the-mill thank you card (thankfully glitter-free), but it’s the inside of… Continue reading Bang Bang, My Baby Shot Me Down
Molly: The Un-Cruiser!
Many many moons ago ( at least 60, I think ), I built out Molly, a single speed free-wheeled track bike for hauling around town on. I’ve been pretty bored with it lately. Molly and her flipped and chopped drop bars: Not anymore! I threw some cruiser bars on her, dropped the seat a… Continue reading Molly: The Un-Cruiser!
|| ( aka Pause)
Tonight, we basically took the night off and had an easy dinner with my parents in their backyard. In the spirit of taking a breather, goodnight internets, I’ll see you tomorrow. Sometimes you just need to take a break.
Do as I say, not as I do…
I know this post is technically going out on the 27th, but I’m backdating it. Tonight I had to re-write my recently created DUI.system, because the hard drive it lived on crashed, and I didn’t have a copy of it on a second drive. I don’t know how many times I’ve told people not to… Continue reading Do as I say, not as I do…
We had the best time at your party…
So, the party seemed to go particularly well, and our house is in much better shape than it was 48 hours ago. On the upside (as if the other parts were a downside), I finally got to see the new Eureka episode. Sweet. I took some photos of the house, and need to review them… Continue reading We had the best time at your party…
