:: I call it xday

A problem develops in my wearingsweatpantsmode time. That toe is cold now.The issue is not only growing but spreading as well. Now that whole toe is really cold.Full on alert. I need new pants. Beans! Bad season for shopping methinks. And these pants had history. They will be remembered. The drive to the xday party. I don't really have any party pics that are worth showing. I maybe took 4 or something. But the drive in was remarkable. This is Calgary to Canmore in 45 min.From Golden Meadows to Golden Plains. Trees are sooo good.Wait, here are some!
Nope, scratch that. But hills rock. (get it? :D )Don't mind that, that's gods mountain. The Rocky Start. At this point my goose was cooked and I started preparing for coworkers.



Some food pics.


A personal fav. Chicken broccoli w/ chicken potatoes. Alan size portions.A good start deserves a good end. My cearal of the week chillin' with a usual dessert these cold days. If you're just getting into baileys season now, you're one month behind. It starts November 1st. Get with it, hippy. ...But it's not too late. December is like the playoffs for baileys. How you got here doesn't matter. Go out, grab some ice and a nice glass to drink from then pick your poison. I know mine. Good taste. Good ingredients. Good price. Great Name.


Everyday ends
End it with a tasty drink
Raise it to your lost

:: 4 Ben (w/words)

Brooklyn Chocolate Stout. 10.6%. Tres bon.

As I chatted with the bk I had this. I poured it very full. I laughed.


This is a vid of me drinking the "first and last guinness of the evening." Grab a pint and get your head on straight.

:: Wednesday

On a hungover saturday i take a bridge-break on my way to buy a comic book. I had just eaten a tubbydog not-dog. I'll get some pics this saturday but in the meantime hhhheeeeeerrreeee'sss... the Bow!
An awesome shack. But a forest was slain for it. Unfortunately. But the forest did not die in total vane. It was so beautiful. Just a dream house.mmmmmm food! Bow-tie, Broccoli, & meatless meatballs. With la fin du monde to drink. I eat it in this bowl so i can just bring the leftovers to work the next day. I always eat too much the night before though.
Another nights dinner, called Rice*Salmon*Broccoli. Soya sauce should be in the name too, though. One 1/2 large bottle of soya sauce. *swoon*


Might I take a moment to point out another pebble in the pond. http://thegreattidepool.blogspot.com/
This here belongs to my sister, el why. She's smarter than me, shorter than me, and a very snazzy dresser. I mean, she's not quite as big a deal as I am. Or have my mane of hair but she's so money and you don't even know it. Her blog will probably be like a delicate but deadly silver dagger cutting through fine fabric of family and fun vs. my clumsy club of a collaboration of daily doings. AND i can alliterate like a motherfucker.



food :: thought

Whenever you buy a loaf of bread you should eat some of it the same day as aquatsion . Its sets a level of freshness and sense of beginning. Your body remembers that and has its own sense of timing about how the bread _should_ be.

Everyloaf ends
Eat it fast until the last
Crumbs in my bed now

:: The Trick to Keeping Promises

...is not to make them. Which is chate. But if you're a top notch cat or a good time dog, when you do make one you keep it. I won't sleep till this update rocks. Begin! Begin with vigor!

Nice to start your day early and get paid to see the sunrise.
But eat right the night before. That is two bottles of Guinness Extra Stout supporting a homemade tomato sauce/soup style bowtie pasta extravaganza.
I love the weather out here. You can see it happening and experience it. Every hour is a new surprise and it is never short on sunshine.

iReno has gone gold... Gold? I think thats some sort of marketing term for things that are basically ready to be peddled to us hungry consumers. Well I bike a lot so watch me peddle this .... iReno!

Before. Stay off the blue. Just think of it as lava.
B. My furniture knows what's up.
B. Lava Entrance.
A. Yay! Lavaless.

A. Smooth and jazzy. Now that's a baby makin' living room.B. This floor very well might have glass all over it at any given moment. Shoes required.
A. Pates Baroni made his dime in clown-pasta-dancing... so he knows a cool pad when he sees one. B. Sleepy time was scary time. A. So I didn't make my sheets. It's still way better.
A. Much like my personalty, my shoes are either black or white with no middle ground. And black's winning.






INTERMISSION :: I told you I'd update hardcore. And get this, I had to upload ALL pics separately because blogspot is being a big meatball sandwich.






Sequence. I'm working on getting better at it. It's tough to stop actually working to take progress shots.





Ta Dah! Nice set up, eh? Anyone want to buy me a modest 30-48" wicked kick ass tv? I will make you a nice dinner and very satisfying breakfast. We can go to chinese buffet for lunch.


Random extras.
Cleaning progress.
I couldn't see behind my stereo to find the woofer so i used a flashed picture to find it and then feel for it blindly. There must be better ways to do this (i.e. untangling my wires so I can access the back freely.) Oh well.
Close up of Carpet. It's the sixth element. Supreme surface.
Carpet vs. Wall. The winner? Fashionable living.
Take a break to take in the view. And when the cute joggers finally pass take a picture of the skyline. :p Calgary has two sides. To live here successfully make sure you get to see the good side. The trick is to ignore the other people living here.... except the joggers. :]

Well not much to say since it's way late and I need to sleep. I owe y'all more words and you'll get 'em. A picture is worth a thousand words though so I'm paid up for at least a week.

Everyday ends
Take a weight off your shoulders

Update Monday <3.

:: How Eye See Things

To see I use this.To show you I use the camera in the refection.
Fuck drying. Just build a small structure that will drain. I know, I know. It's the engineer in me. I swear I'm trying to drown him out. :p
Snow in the morning. This much snow is very pretty. Full moon morning too. My coffee delivery servant (barista) was in great spirits from it too.

Now some iReno updates. It's been forever but progress has been chugging along. (for marketing purposes I'm calling it iReno now)Ready, set, tile! All tied up down the first stretch.
The outside lanes seem to have an advantage around corner #1.
Due to the "paint yourself into a corner" factor both the inside and outside lanes tie it up for the final push.
Deciding to forget their differences and competitive backgrounds both the inside and outside lane just work together and finish the race tied. Ultimately Alan wins because he can now have a beer and stop working.
Mortar's happy too.
Great. Grout.
Meh. Grout.
Since superman can push the world to spin around backwards I think he would make a great grouter. You push the floor. He could even make time reverse and be done quick-snap.
Ssaturday's set.
I found a new place to watch it.
Close and decent. Not quite relaxed.
But.
It'll do.

Sorry for slouching. I'm now trying to stand up straight. Get my head on tight. I'll hopefully even have carpet by next weekend and be, more or less, totally done iReno! Which will help. I'm stoked. Summer sucks. I don't like it. Fall baby, Fall. Fall's so money and you don't even know it.

Tomorrow brings me winter
The cold calms my heart
