does anyone else think this is cool? you are looking at a bench a friend and i built last weekend. it felt so good to accomplish something in my own house! it has been forever since i have done anything to the interior of our home... my wife has been so patient with me.

today i'm at work all day. someone is getting married and i get to baby-sit the building. it's pretty fun, really. i love being part of a community (running into people that you haven't seen in a while, making new friends, fake smiling...). i do often smile for real, though.

i want a beer. by the way, i haven't tried any new beers (gooood beers) in a lnog while. anyone know of any? i've been drinking boddingtons, wexford... jeremy and i are getting ready to brew another batch (i've been saying that for a few months). anyway, white russians have been consumed in my house frequently as of late. my friends, justin & jody got me hooked - although i think they only drink them when they come see us (and we play catchphrase - that is hilarious!).

well, i better go and listen to these old guys play the hits and watch my floor get dirty. i sure hope people really stick around to help clean up.... recovering should be so pleased with my consistent posting!
