All Things Chill

Busy sleep. Busy work. Busy Internet. Busy rent. Busy dj. Busy Halloween. Busy clothes. Busy drapes. Busy sandwiches. Busy shower. Busy Arby’s. Busy computer. Busy music. Busy sleepingbag. Busy Aerobed. Busy grocery. Busy unpack. Busy boxes. Busy [...]

Liana allowed me to pick out the couch for the townhouse, so I’ve been digging online (craigslist, room and board, crate and barrel, ikea etc.) and in “brick and mortar” (I did quotes cause I don’t think that phrase every caught on to the general public) stores to find the perfect sitting apparatus… but I [...]

Man alive. After driving the 13+ hours from SF to Portland to Seattle, unpacking all the boxes, grabbin’ essentials (and ONLY essentials) @ Target, looking at furniture, setting up networks and meeting all the new neighbors… I am one tired fella.

As I embark on a new journey into “livingwithsomeoneIheart-ness” starting… uhhh tomorrow (!!!), there are a few sites that I have picked up to save some moving-in headaches, as well as other miscellaneous time-savers that will allow for more time cuddling on the couch (if we find one, that is).

To be frank (insert literalness of “being frank” joke here), I hate moving. It hasn’t been that bad, since I took a lot of time off from work to make sure that everything is in order. There are a few things that I need to take care of, and those things will be [...]

I’ve already priced one out slighhhttttllllyyy out of my budget. Keyless ignition, “Arctic White” paint job and other amenities? Hell yes. One can dream, can’t he?

You Tube link here. New Wii Zapper / Link’s Crossbow Training footage via Opposable Thumbs. For $20, the game looks good! Well, good enough to buy separately from the Wii’s new gun peripheral - the Wii Zapper.

Dunno what the Wii Zapper is? Honestly, it’s just a molded piece of plastic that [...]

My peeps in the bay area (Alice, Joce, Atish Mark etc…) - if you want laundry detergent, bleach, a white shelving unit, mugs, luggage, assorted food stuffs or a laundry basket… let me know. I’ll be throwing a lot of it out / donating to Goodwill tomorrow.
