Now it looks like a house!

Fireplace

I've always wanted a house with a fireplace. Yay!

 

[jasonl]

Beetle in the window

Yes, that's my Beetle sitting in the driveway.

 

[sudsmaster]

Where's the chimney?

Or is that a non-vented gas fireplace?

The house looks great. You'll be so happy when you move in.

Terrific Jason. I love Helen's taste in collegiant attire (The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You All The...0 oops, that says UT as in Tenn, not UT!! But it is a "cuzzin" orange fur sure!!

 

[jasonl]

T for Texas, T for Tennesse

Now I just have to get her to root for LSU.

GEAUX TIGERS!

 

[frigilux]

Looking good, Jason! I'll bet you're counting the days til you can move in and relax.

 

[appnut]

And wash, set the t-stat where he wants, have privacy, adjust appliances the way he wants, and list goes on .... the list goes on .....

 

[jasonl]

PLay my accordion, crank the stereo, walk around in my underwear, fart, belch, do other things ;-), the list goes on.

Thank you for the visual

Pick your nose.
Stick your hand where Al Bundy does.
Use the recycling bin (bathroom) with the door WIDE open and the fan *OFF*

What are we forgetting?

 

[sudsmaster]

What are we forgetting?

Gee, Toggle, I don't know. What else does one do in their own home that they wouldn't dare do at their parent's house?

But the best part is being able to set up a new home, make that first cup of coffee or tea, and sit back and enjoy the... silence...

 

[jasonl]

More like enjoy the music with the stereo turned past "1". The 68 Magnavox does a fine job of filling the room with music. But my future Sony home theater system will definitely rock.

 

[sudsmaster]

Ah well, Jason, music would be just noise without the pauses.

 

[jasonl]

Music is not noise

Rock is music
Country is music
Classical is music
Jazz is music
Gospel is music
Opera is music
Rap is not music

 

[rickr]

But I like most Rap and Hip-Hop

Because Rap and Hip-Hop have a great beat,and because The Game is HOT as hell!

Hate IT OR Love IT is one of my favourite songs of all time.
In fact,I guess I'd rather hear that than any of the types of music you have listed above. (even with some of the words censored)

Love the way your home is coming along Jason! Bet you can't wait until moving day.We will want lots of detailed photos from the celebration!

And moving day can't come soon enough. I put in a 3/4 full load of colored clothes in the shredder. I went to go play with the computer, then I came back to the kitchen. My mom then informed me that she put it 2 more pairs of pants and a jean. I also noticed that the machine was back on RIP speed and the timer was spun around back to 16.

AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

And lemme guess, she's going to hang them up wet on the rack. :-( She is SO not Oasis Certified.

 

[brettsomers]

mom then informed me that she put it 2 more pairs of pants a

OMG my mom wouldnt have dared! there would have been an instant arguement. and then to change the speed AND move the dial to 16 MINS??? lord have mercy. and on high speed? my family never understood why i used the *gentle action* setting on our machine when i was a kid. and my mother ALWAYS set the machine to the maximum wash time, no matter what she was washing. good luck jason!

 

[jasonl]

And the washer is spinning, or rather banging and jumping all over the place and my mom wants to know why it's doing that.

WELL IT SURELY CAN'T BE THAT BIG PAIR OF JEANS YOU JUST SHOVED IN THERE. Jeez.

 

[jasonl]

Setting Helen straight

Before the bad laundry habits sink in, let us all gently guide and teach Helen the proper way to sort, load, and wash clothes, so I can concentrate on watching, drinking coffee and loading 45s on the Magnavox.

 

[sudsmaster]

I hope she added another 2 cups of high sudsing detergent to accomodate the extra pants and jeans.
