| dreams |
So, I have really weird dreams lately. I typically don't remember them, but I know that I wake up and am like... "What the fuck was that all about?" and then I go back to sleep and forget about them.
This weekend was jam-packed with crap, and I won't go into it... Overall, it was a good weekend. Friday morning I took my coffee table to get refinished. $140... Not bad considering it's an expensive table and I got it for free. During this transaction, I got a free metal typewriter from the 20's or 30's. I'm not sure if I'm going to leave it the way it is, or try to restore it, but... Man, is it cool lookin!
There's a little side table that I spent a lot of time on as well - stripping, sanding, staining, sealing. Still needs one more coat of sealer, and then I'm spray painting the base. I'm not sure what color yet, but I don't like the offwhite/ivory color it is right now. Brian likes it, but... I don't think I'm having it for what I use it for. Megan is providing me the spray paint, so that'll be cool.
As for everything else - it's all good, I guess. Still need to clean in the house - I REALLY need to make a target run and an Ikea run - pick up a few things that are needed.
I'm still going into how many little furnishings I need - A couple rugs, some shelves, bathroom towels and bath mat, lights, paint... It's going to cost, but that's okay - I need it and will use it for a long time to come.
I also need to get a vacuum from someone STILL to vacuum that room before I move stuff into it. I will get everything moved around by this weekend, and have some furniture to boot! I WILL damnit!!!
Oh, I might also have another dog to watch this weekend. Kopper - My sisters Shiba Inu. He looks like a fox, and is generally unpredictable - Really nice with people, not so great with other dogs. He's small, though, so it won't be as hard to control him as it was with Lou. And it would only be for 2 days, which is a drop in the bucket compared to the 3 weeks I almost had to deal with Lou.
Did I mention that this dog has chewed off all the fur on his back legs? Yea, I think there's a mixture of heat problems, anxiety and allergies, but apparently he's stopped with all that stuff, so who the hell knows. I certainly don't...
With that, I suppose I should get out of here. I'll be in touch... if you're carbon-based.
