Weekender

It was a long one... and I worked like a pack-mule.
On Friday we hit up New Canadian for some wood. I built version two of our bed, and this time it is six feet off the ground. It is pretty sweet 'cause the desk fits underneath it. Yesterday I went back for some wood for a ladder, 'cause the chair to dresser to milkcrate-on-dresser seemed pretty sketchy. I notched the posts at every rung of the ladder, and it took FOREVER (using an XActo saw and a $2.99 hacksaw - it wasn't pretty).
We also finished converting the kitchen to a reasonable state of cleanliness (the bathroom is still kinda grisly), and we managed to get most of our stuff unpacked. Once we paint (next weekend?), we can put up a few more shelves and get the rest of our stuff sorted out.
I also got the internet sort of set up... running a 25' cable from the phone jack, getting everything plugged in, sitting on the phone with tech-support for 20-30 minutes... only to be told that someone would contact us within 24 to 48 hours, once Bell fixes whatever the problem is that makes things not work!
Also set up and tore down church on sunday, and played the melodica... afterwards we hit up RiceBar (again) with Jamie and Bradley. Bradley came over and we stayed up too late.
Other highlights included being visited by Esther Parry, riding the bike with two 10' long pieces of wood on my shoulder, and rocking the new Tegan and Sara album...
