Got this [expletive] done and it looks good enough. Procrastination and dragging it out is the only way I can do things. Week 1 drag old door out of garage. Week 2 cut door. Week 3 order base, and glass top. Week 4 paint and put together. note, that stuff under the plexi, and the distressed look, intentional.

What is this?
Like a kitchen table for my elder kid. Hoping she gets out on her own, please sweet jesus

The week between christmas and new year's rules so hard. Unfortunately flights from Phoenix to Peoria were cheapest in that window, so I won't be able to take advantage and fly back immediately after christmas.
thrill you could just take 17 to 101 and be there in about 20 minutes. Flying seems kind of overkill.

Yesterday I was driving 'Zeus Jr. (now 4 years old) back from the park, and "Just Can't Get Enough" by Depeche Mode came on. He asked, "What can he just not get enough of?"

I thought carefully, and told him "fun." He just can't get enough fun.

But then we talked about it, and 'Zeus Jr. suggested that perhaps he just can't get enough pomegranates. Zeus Jr. really loves pomegranates, so that's probably what the song's about.

Given that line along McKnight, I'd take the punch in the face and my child hating me for a year.

My sister got stuck in that traffic for nearly an hour coming over to a holiday get together at Mom's.

Indian food gives me the runs. It looks the same coming out as it does going in. And yet I will be first in line the next time someone wants to go out for Indian. Love the stuff. Indian people must have the cleanest colons on the planet.
