Taxes

Ugh, spent the evening getting ready for the tax man tomorrow night. Yeah, who gets their taxes done on Friday night at 7pm? Good times...
Carl was upset that we'll have to miss the auction at Doyle's, but I just found out they're not having one, so that's some consolation.

Right now he's hanging the new drywall in the hallway. I'm trying to get ready for the quilters to show up on the 18th. I guess when they built our house they put a regular shingle roof on it (flat roof almost), and it of course leaked within 2 years in the hallway. It's been patched 3 times and now it's beyond that. So rather than try to fix it again and have it look crummy right away, Carl has elected to hang new drywall. Picked it up tonight at Lowe's for $1 per 12' sheet (slightly damaged, but for this job it won't matter). Pretty good deal =)

Listening to: Dirty Vegas - Throwing Shapes. I love this song...it's like, it starts out and you want to get your groove on, but you have to earn your way to the end of the track when there is no amplifier that can play it loud enough, and you can't soak enough of it in all at once.

Freecell game: 4915. I dl'd Patience to my pda and now I can play wherever I go. This is pretty cool :)

I'll try to remember to load the pics of the chicken quilt tomorrow.

Shopko in Spfld has Darth Taters. I got one awhile back at Kmart in Bloomington, though.

I found my loot from the state fair earlier tonight. I'm pretty sure I have enough pencils to last the rest of my life and then some. Who can say no to free pencils, though? Be honest...

Let's see, what else...oh, I found out how to get my Palm TX to connect at Panera. Apparently you have to call their 800 wifi help line and they'll change something in the network at that particular store and then it should work. I guess they're not really configured to work with Blazer, but there's something they can do to make it work better. Maybe I'll try that tomorrow at lunch. BTW, I learned this at Brighthand.com.

I think that's it for now.
