Dominican

Posted on November 20, 2006 by admin

Dominican was great.

Went horseback riding.

Snorkeled with the fishes on a coral reef.

Ate unlimited.

Drank unlimited.

Laid in the sun a whole lot.

Got entertained every night.

We won all the shooting competitions.

Bought overpriced stuff from the sellers on the beach.

Brought home souvenirs.

Coffee table

Posted on October 27, 2006 by admin

I’ve lived in different houses and owned a couch for about 7 years and never owned a coffee table. I went out last night looking for one and ended up bringing one home.
It’s so nice looking.

Patio, Fence, Vacation

Posted on October 23, 2006 by admin

Updates:

Waiting to finish my deck, had to stop due to rain for the last 2 weeks.

Waiting for them to install my chain link fence, dog still has to be on the leash (rain).

Waiting for my passport, can’t book a vacation until I get that.

Need to decorate for the Halloween party. Wish I had painted and gotten things the way I wanted before people came over but I can’t hold off forever.

The roomate situation is going well.

The girlfriend situation is going very well.

I’m liking my house, job etc.

New plan, going to Cuba for a week in November if my passport comes in time – cruise possibly next year instead.

I’m having a Halloween/Housewarming party end of this month so anyone can come, let me know.

Nearly finished building my deck. I was going to take the existing deck, drop the main part down to a foot off the ground, have stairs going down to it from the patio door and resurface the top but I ended up totally doing everything from scratch. It’s very stable, looks great and I even did the diagonal look on the top. I have an upper platform with handrail out from the patio door, steps leading to a mid platform going to the main deck or to the ground.

Router table

Posted on September 27, 2006 by admin

I got a router and table set very cheaply today.

I’ve already started on making shelves for work to spice up my new cubical. There’s a black metal bracket to snap components onto everyone’s walls but the shelf that can snap on it is very hard to come by. I thought I’d make a shelf and screw it on the bracket. I’ve made two 2 foot long shelves with a nice roman ogee bit edge all around it. I’m going to stain it cherry red and varnish it to look all spiffy.

Actually the real reason I got the router is because I’ve been searching for a desk side table to put my printer and scanner on but I can’t find what I’m looking for and not in cherry red. I’m going to make it. The price I would have paid for that will pay off this new toy.

Coke Blak review

Posted on September 25, 2006 by admin

My review on Coke Blak:

Small, expensive (237ml), incredibly sweet (with aspartame). You can almost feel it corroding your teeth as soon as it enters your mouth. It has a hint of coffee. Not sure why anyone would buy it a second time.
