dino head My Almost-daily Journal

About
I love trying out new things, especially when it comes to internet technology. I never really kept a journal, but it's something that I've always wanted to do. Now, everybody will get a chance to look inside my twisted, and somewhat-warped mind. I've also subscribed to Audio Blog, so a few times a week, I'll leave actual voice blogs. Very cool!

More Deep Cleaning

 
Kitchen is starting to come together! We just finished cleaning every cup, mug, glass, plate, bowl, saucer, etc., that we received from our wedding shower, and organized them in our new cabinets. Kitchen ceiling and walls still need fresh paint, but I'm waiting until after baby is born to do that. Same goes with the backsplash. I want ceramic tile, but I might just end up making the backsplash out of the countertop formica.

Last night was another labor-filled night. Everything that we moved from the kitchen into the living room, had to either find it's home back in the kitchen, or get moved down into the basement. I think I ended up going up and down the stairs 100 times. There's my workout for the week. The biggest burden was carrying down all my hard liquor that once had a home in the kitchen cabinets. That's another thing: Danielle and I aren't even big drinkers. I don't know why I have so much alcohol. I think it's probably because I bought a cocktail cookbook and ended up buying every type of alcohol possible... never know what someone might ask for. What an dumbell. I guess I'll end up doing what every East Sider does: build a bar in the basement, along with a pool table and dart board. If I was an Italian, I'd also have a second kitchen, a wine cellar and a cigar smoking room. At least I'll have a place to keep my alcohol, not to mention the 100 different types of wine glasses stuffed into our kitchen cabinets. Just when you think you're finished with remodeling your house, something else comes to mind. When does it end?

After clearing out the living room, next step was to do a deep cleaning of the hardwood. I vacuumed every nook and crevice in that room, then followed it up with a mopping of Murphy's Oil Soap. I love that stuff. Room was so clean you could eat off the floor.

I was spent and ready to unwind. I was readying myself for a quick session of World of Warcraft, followed by a deep, hearty slumber...

"Umm... since you have the vacuum and the mop and bucket out, we might as well do all the rooms! Yeah... that would be great (said in Office Space tone)."

[sound of wind behind dumped from sails] or [sound of a deflating balloon]

"You're kidding, right? It's like midnight right now."

One hour later... master bedroom and computer room are completely dedusted, vacuumed and floors mopped. I guess I'm glad I got that off my plate. It's very nice living in a spit-shined house. It's been quite a while, especially in comparison to my bachelor days.

I played about 30 minutes of World of Warcraft before retiring. Boy, when my head hit the sack, I was out like a light.
