Home Depot

This past weekend Home Depot was offering a don’t pay for a year deal when you spend more than $450…haha so I took FULL advantage of that buying…well…lets just say I had no problem clearing the $450 mark . The list is huge and I’m probably leaving something out but:

* Stainless steel microwave
* Stainless steel range hood
* Seven light fixtures
* Light bulbs
* Twelve gallons of paint
* Paint brushes
* Painter’s tape
* Granite vanity (Oopps, I mean MAN CUPBOARD) counter top
* Bathroom fixtures
* Toilet tank, bowl and seat
* New handles for my kitchen cupboards (eighteen of these)
* Heating register covers (seven of these)
* Wooden blinds for six of my windows
* And whatever else I’m forgetting…

So that was my shopping spree on Sunday afternoon.

With respect to my weekend, Friday night I worked on the house and then watched When Harry Met Sally with Jillian. Saturday I worked some more and held the FIRST poker game ever at my place (won $25) and went downtown (ridiculous down there, left and was home by 1am). Sunday was the shopping spree, family dinner then went for a walk with Jillian and watched Big Fish (great movie).

All-in-all it was a great weekend.

Cheers!

“At first I thought, if I were Superman, a perfect secret identity would be “Clark Kent, Dentist,” because you could save money on tooth X-rays. But then I thought, if a patient said, “How’s my back tooth?” and you just looked at it with your X-ray vision and said, “Oh it’s okay,” then the patient would probably say, “Aren’t you going to take an X-ray, stupid?” and you’d say, “Aw fuck you, get outta here,” and then he probably wouldn’t even pay his bill.”

Short and Sweet

Well, I’m not going to write a huge blog AGAIN today. Something short and sweet for the three readers I have!

Hmmm, ok I lied…I couldn’t think of anything. So here goes a long winded attempt at another “deep” blog.

Yesterday Amy (friend and colleague) mentioned this site where you could write yourself an email and have it sent to yourself in the future. SOOOO, if you felt like being deep like Amy and Matt you could write yourself predicting “where” you’ll be in the future! Which apparently is MORE deep then what I thought would make sense, which, was to email myself what I did today so I can get it, say four years later, and say “Hey, yeah, I remember that day!” or “Wow, I did that?”. Anyhow, I think they are both good ideas! GUYS!!!
So, with that being said, I was reminded of how many times in the past I tried to “landmark” certain events in my mind so that I could look back on them and remeber those moments. For example, my last week at my first job I tried to take certain “snapshots” of the place so I could look back and remember those moments. Guess what…didn’t work! lol Not sure if it’s because I have the brain capacity of a squirrel or if because I just have a bad memory but for whatever reason, I can’t remember what it was I was trying to capture.

So, where am I going with all this!? Good question, I’m not sure I know…all I know is that I’m about to turn 25 and I can’t remember a damn thing! AHHHH

Since I was so “deep” in my blog, in closing I’d like to leave you with this “deep” quote:

“At first I thought, if I were Superman, a perfect secret identity would be “Clark Kent, Dentist,” because you could save money on tooth X-rays. But then I thought, if a patient said, “How’s my back tooth?” and you just looked at it with your X-ray vision and said, “Oh it’s okay,” then the patient would probably say, “Aren’t you going to take an X-ray, stupid?” and you’d say, “Aw fuck you, get outta here,” and then he probably wouldn’t even pay his bill.”
