House Pic!

Ok, I snapped off a couple pics, but once I got inside last night and sat down on the couch, I was done. I had to stop at Target on the way home to get soft dog treats for JayJay, soda/pop/coke (whatever u call it), some chips (since I planned on grabbing goodcents after target), and I forgot antacid pills. I find myself taking allot of Tums, so I usually grab the biggest jug they sell. As I mentioned though, I remembered everything except the Tums. I then ran over to grab a sandwich, because I knew I wouldn't have the energy to cook. I could have strangled the guy working there, both of them actually. Let me break it down.

idiot- 'How can I help you'
me- 'hey, I'd like a whole Italian, with provolone cheese, on the garlic pepper bread'
idiot- 'did you want the 12" deal or a half?
me - 'the whole please'
idiot- 'what kind of sandwich?'
me- 'the Italian'
idiot- 'what kind of bread?'
me- 'the garlic pepper'
idiot- 'any cheese?'

go back and read exactly what I said when I ordered.

So then some dude comes into the store and goes straight to the counter, starts asking if there is a manager, because he is selling advertising in some newspaper. Two seconds later my sandwich is done, I'm at the register, but idiot #2 has to call the owner. I stood there for at least 5-10 minutes while he talked on the phone, and with the sales guy. I'm thinking he could have multi-tasked.

So I finally get home, let the dogs out, checked out my shed (Andy had gone over and trimmed while I was at work, since he is on vacation all week). I cleaned the kitchen, started some laundry, and brought up two baskets of clothes to fold. I threw in Season 3 Disc 3 of The Shield,
heated up my hoagie (I like to nuke goodcents sandwich for about 15 secs, but not subway's). Once I sat down on the couch, that was the end of the night for me.

I feel allot less sore today, so I am going to try and pressure wash my driveway when I get home. Tomorrow we have our meeting for my bowling league. It's crazy that it's already time to start next week. I am going to price out a new bowling ball, since mine is 5+ years old, and looks like its 10+ years old. It has quite a few chips and scratches. We might bowl a game or two after the meeting, most of my team will be there, just to get the swing down before we officially start next week.

I am dying to see three movies right now, and there is a good chance I might go see them by myself this weekend. Tropic Thunder, Pineapple Express, and Step Brothers. I couldn't even say which I want to see more.

Ok, here are a couple real pictures of the house. Still needs a couple things touched up. I should have closed the garage door I know. I think it looks awesome, could have tacked on a few $$ for when I sell. (hopefully soon!)




This is a shot of the side, minus the storm windows. Look at that awesome job somebody (hint, hint) did adding the bottom trim piece.











I need to get back to work, have a good day.

ciao!

Hey Rain King...Since Kelly is grounded, I decided to read your blog...very interesting!!

Your house really looks nice, you did a great job with your colors. Did you go to the same design school as Brian did???

I feel your pain when ordering food from dummies, it's very, very frustrating. The Snyder's and I had that same experience at Sheridan's in Belton. The poor little girl was shocked to learn that 24 oz was a bigger size than 16 oz. SAD!!

I'm a Wii bowler...love it!!!

Enjoy your movies and have a good evening!!
