I dunno what it is, but I’ve been a bloggin’ fool these past few days. Let me know if it gets too much.
First off, here’s stuff I’m selling on eBay. Uh, if something catches your eye, BUY! It’s mostly graphic novels and games. I’ll cut a couple bucks off the price for buddies (in relation to the cost of the stuff).
Next, interesting day today. Went to remove the poor wallpaper in the downstairs bathroom. Found out that there was bad plastering in an AWESOME way, we pretty much removed all the plaster from the drywall in one long, grueling sitting and will be re-plastering tomorrow, perhaps painting this weekend.
Today was a DIY nightmare. But I also learned just about everything common there is to know about drywalling, wallpaper removal (it sucks, but not nearly as bad as putting it up. We will NEVER put up wallpaper, EVER), and I even completely took my toilet apart (water line, complete seperation of bowl and tank, etc) to get behind it, so I even raised my plumbing skill by like +2. I’m excited to get going for tomorrow. (I work Wednesday, so it’ll be interesting to see how far we get, considering we’ve never done this kind of thing before, and we’re learning it from DIY sites on the net).
There was something else, but I can’t remember.
One thing I’ve come to realize is that I need to get another desk, one set aside (sans computer) for the sole purpose of paper design (journalling, perhaps nuts and bolts game design) and especially for language learning. I just really haven’t been cracking at Japanese as much as I used to, without a solid table or desk to work at that isn’t cluttered with computer junk and the like. Time to thumb through the IKEA catalog, and see if it can beat out some stuff I saw at Furnitureland South (most likely it will, as I was aiming at something simple and cheap anyway).

Dude, your ebay link has an ‘xhref’ in it, not a ‘href’, making it click-resistant to me. :)

FIxed it, thanks for the heads up!
