Happy Halloween!

Or like me if you're Pagan, Happy Samhain!

Just a quicky today on the bathroom.....paints up light fixtures up, baseboards are soon to be up. Then the Vanity, toilet and morror and the bathroom should be done!!!!! Hoping that it's all done today. I don't see any reason why it wont be. The paint dried fast. You can barley see the light gray paint.....it looks awesome and you'll be like wtf is that gray or white? Once everything is done I'll post pics.

Last night was enjoyable. Didn't plan on going out, but Beavis, myself and his cousin went to a Halloween party. It was pretty cool, just kicking back drinkng and talking. Though I didn't know anyone cept 1 I really enjoyed myself. Pineapple cake shots, some Guinness and some Pipeline Porter (it's a coffee beer and was awesome)

Anyways enough of me, I leave you with some nostalgia from the Worst Witch! Tim Curry rules!

Oooooooo drool.

I got Force Unleashed 2 for the PC....well I downloaded it, but will more then likely buy it because I'm enjoying it so much. My issue with PC games is I like to use a controller. And since I don't own an XBox I use a PS2 controller hooked up by USB. Problem with that is, the controller is all screwed up, the game doesnt recognize it as a PS2 controller and sees it as an XBox, but the controls are screwed up, aaaaand I can't edit it myself... So, I've been playign with most of my options ass backwards. Oh well I'll live I guess. I am loving the game though :) Anyone have any ideas on how to edit my controller in Win7 to make the buttons as I want them. I was going to try Joy2Key but that program is so old.

Not much to report on the bathroom front (so no pics). Only pics are of the grout and the tile looking dirty because of it lol.... The grout was put in yesterday, and the rest of the tile. Right now, he is cleaning the tile, will be sealing it, then texturing the areas that need it let that dry a bit, then paint it! So close so close. if the paint dries fast enough he is hoping to get the vanity in today. Come on paint, dry fast enough! lol

Not going to do anything tonight as in Halloween party wise. More then likely just going to go next door for some drinking and reminiscing lol

Now something a bit on the holiday side. Enjoy!

No time for the old in out love......

.....I've just come to read the meter!

Now if you can tell me where that's from and who said it, I'll give you 3 brownie points good for absolutley nothing!

Anyways, bathrooms looking good, the tile is getting laid down. The tub is fully in drywall is up, and covering the gap that you saw in the previous pics. I'll be so happy when this is done. The amount of dust that it's bringing out from the drywall is driving me nuts. Who wants to clean my house for me after it's all done? Which if things go smoothly it will be done Sunday. That's if things go smoothly lol. I'm just getting tired of running to ACE hardware for small stuff lol, Yesterday I think I went 4 times. They know me by name now. But I thought I would show you how it's looking!













He had to stop laying the tile, because he didn't want to screw it up by walking all over it, so most of it was down last night except a few pieces. He'll be finishing that up today, he should also be moving the drain you see in the first pic to the left for the sink.He moved the piping for the shower head up about 3 inches so not to destroy the top of the shower wall. He could have lowered it, but that would have sucked lol.

Like I said, it's looking good, and I CANT wait till it's done.

Instead of a cartoon today (which I though hard about what one to put) I've decided to give you a reading of perhaps one of the best authors that ever lived (I consider him right below Shakespeare.) And as much as I loved Vincent Price's reading of this one. I have to say John De Lancie (aka Q from Star Trek) did a great job at reading Edgar Allen Poes The Raven.

So enjoy it as much as I did! And pick up a book for the goddess' sake!

I'd like to think.....

That I'm not racist. You know I make the jokes from time to time, then again, I make them on my own heritage. My mom is an immigrant from Portugal my father was either 2st or second generation born in the states, he was Italian and Irish. I mean if you crack the jokes about your own heritage as well as others and it's all in fun, does that make you racist? I don't use the derogatory names that people use for other races. I bring this up because the game I play Cabal Online our version North America, just merged with with Global. Meaning we have an influx of Spanish speakers who are now flooding a entire English speaking base with Spanish posts. Is it to much to ask if you want help to post in English on the English forums? More then 3/4 of us don't speak Spanish and those that do don't post on the forums. I even made a suggestion to the GM's to add a Spanish speaking part of the forums just for them, because we have a bunch of morons who like to flame anyone who doesn't speak English, or who doesn't speak it well. I at least figured if a section was just for those that spoke Spanish that there would be less flaming....I mean does my suggestion and way of thinking imply racism?

WEnt over to Beavis's yesterday then to his cousins for a drink. Grape Tilt rules! Why haven't you added him yet to your following list so he can add you back? Chop Chop people He's lonely! http://fishntyme.blogspot.com/

Also, the Tub/shower is in in the bathroom, that took a good portion of yesterday to get the old tub and walls out, redo plumbing, add support studs for the new wall. Just a lot of work went into it to get this.


I think it looks good well a lot better then the 30+ year old tub/shower that was there, I can't wait to see the finished bathroom......

Anyways, I'll leave you this morning with the final Of Tomorrow cartoons from Tex Avery.....I knwo there are others out there that Iwill post. Just need to find out which ones.
