Paint

The last few days have mostly been spent painting... and we're getting close. We're almost done with the bedroom, and the closet and kitchen don't have a lot left to do (at least as far as painting goes).

We went to the Chicago Cub's Game Tuesday. It was a night game (which I enjoy) and the Cubs won 2-0!! There were a few really good plays, and overall it was a really good game.

That's about it for now... well, except for looking forward to this weekend :-)

Drywall

The drywall guys finally came today (not the originals though... those guys never showed). So now the kitchen is finally starting to take shape. There's still a lot to do, but at least it's moving along...

In other news, I'm really looking forward to the weekend of the 4th! So far the plans are sounding great.

Dvorak

I just decided the past few days that I would take a look at the Dvorak keyboard layout. In fact, I'm actually using it to (slowly) type this. From what I've read about it, and the time I've spent trying to learn it so far (about an hour) I can already tell it is a easier layout. Anyway, other than that, not much is going on.

back at home...

I'm back from the trip... actually have been for a few days now. I finally solved the problem with the family computer (dhcp client was missing), unfortunately the only way I could find to fix it was to reinstall windows... not a fun time. It works now. And speaking of fun times, I had a chance to see Amy on the way back, that, unlike reinstalling and updating windows, was a good time. Also Fry's Electronics is a great place. so anyway, enough rambling...
