This week has been a lot of work around the house, since it's been too hot to do anything outdoors. I try to get my running around done before noon, but it usually doesn't work out that way. I've got my office nearly organized, there's only a little filing left to do and that's a cause for celebration for me!! I hate a messy office. I took a car load of stuff to the thrift store, and I've been finding even more stuff that I could definitely part with.
The insurance guy came over a few days ago, and determined that the recent hot water heater leak made $5,000 worth of damage to the wall between the garage and kitchen. AND...it's a wall were there's kitchen cabinets. It all has to be torn out, countertops and everything, to be replaced. We're particularly excited about that because we don't like the current countertops. They're white tile with grey grout. UGGGGLY. So now I'm watching all the home-remodeling shows to see what type of countertops we might look to. Steve wants something different, like metal. I taped a show today where this architect guy had aluminum countertops made. Hmmm...interesting.
Here's my new eyebrows. They're healed now, and much more photo-friendly....
I feel like such a hipster, because last night I got together with two friends at a local Vietnamese coffee house to hang out. Shay wasn't home, Steve was working late, and I didn't want to sit in front of the t.v. So we met at Orseeni House and had tons of wonderful food, like Vietnamese style soup, spring rolls, crepes, tea, and we just about exploded from all the volume. The owner is a nice guy, very funny too. He was showing us some pictures of his wedding on his laptop computer, and asked his cousin for help, because, "I only watch porn and stuff on this thing, I don't know how to use it otherwise." Swear to GAWD he said that, in his Vietnamese accent!! Too funny!!!
