half day today...
posted @ 12:22 by ryan in [ To-do list... ]

I am going to be leaving my office in about 15 minutes...

I am going to finish painting my house (with Kimmie's helps, since she wants to be a painter, but not the kind of painter that actually paints pictures...)

then I am going to go to Home Depot and find out how much it will cost me to get new carpeting in my house... and I might buy a tape measure for good measure because measuring things with my had and a nifty ruler...

not so much fun.

I like talking half days... that means less time at work.

and work is where the overhead florescent lights sap the vitamin d from your body while giving you that nice pallid skin tone...

well, not so much sap but more of a failure to generate...

... ... ...

do you think installing skylights is expensive?

there is the window, the insulation, the drywall, the wood, the screws...

oh... and the knowledge to actually do it correctly...

I bet that is priceless (or perhaps the labor fee of a contractor)

... ... ...

must focus...



must bounce...

slurpee!

I just wanted to give a huge thanks and a shout to slurpee for hooking me up with the invite to gmail!

it was a wonderfully sweet thing to do, and, as promised, I am dedicating this entry to you!

your sketch will come as soon as I figure out what to sketch ;-)

I actually do not really know slurpee at all... except for her name, the fact that she is a teacher, and that I immensely enjoy reading her blogs... that, and she seems like a really sweet person...

but really, how much can you tell from a person about their blog? (the answer is: only as much as they want you to know - and then that depends on how well the actually write, but enough about that...)

anyhow, thanks again, slurpee, for the gmail invite. as always, I was late in hearing anything about anything...

perhaps I will get more invites because of it...

or something...

;-D
