Our House

Filed under: fun, house, life, pets — xcaper @ 3:15 pm

Soon Mrs Fireshaper and I will be moving out of the apartment and into a house. YAY! We are moving more out of the city so we will be further from a lot of the stores we like to shop at but we will also be away from the noise and constant lights. We are actually moving not far from my parents.

The house needs a lot of work though, we are going to rip out all the carpet, tear out a wall, and then re-do everything. The paint job the last tenant decided on is horrible and we are going to have to get a professional painter come in and put down some commercial grade white paint before we can do anything else. It’s not going to be easy, definitely not going to be easy.

The dog will get more room though. Hehe.

Email me back to my inbox

Ack! Again I spend way too much time not blogging and doing other things, I can explain this time though, really! Um… I’ve been busy doing stuff. Yeah, that’s it stuff. I need to get back into the habit of blogging every other day (when did I do that???).

So I signed up at Viddler.com after listening to Leo Laporte (along with the lovely Amber Mac) do an interview with the founder. It’s a real interesting twist on commenting on videos, letting you set your comment to a certain spot in the video stream. I thought I was safe from spammers in a startup as I haven’t had spam from any other startup web company yet, but apparently there are a few people out there who can’t help themselves. I got a message from “Rita”, well that’s what she calls herself, saying that she thinks we can “click” and she said “email me back to my inbox so that i can send you my picture for you to know who i am through my email address ” (sic). I don’t know where this can go, I usually don’t “click” with people who don’t have a firm grasp of the English language, which is why “she” will be getting an email from a throwaway address, hooray for Gmail!

I’m still really enjoying my new phone, it’s just so cool! I’m glad I finally decided to get a PDA phone, there’s just so much that I wish I had a long time ago in theis phone.
