Insulation Station

Well, the garage is done. I don’t know how long it took them, just that I got home around 5:20, and my garage smelled slightly of pine-sol, and the door looked different. The rails look much better, and having the front-mounted spring removes a lot of the bulk from the old system. Heck, they even swept the floor. I couldn’t find the bill they said they’d leave for me, so I’ll have to call tomorrow and ask about that.

Ga-RAGE

Well, finally fed up with my garage having a 1" gap at the bottom of the door when it closed, I tried loosening the tension wires that were being overtightened by the cold weather. Bad idea. Now my garage won’t open at all, thanks to the lack of a counterweight. My car is now stuck in the garage. Fun! I’ve been meaning to get a new door (an insulated one that closes all the way, damn it!

Geek Be Me

Well… don’t that just ruin my day. ^_^

Lazy Holidayzie

Now that the holidays are over, and I’m finally sober enough to update my website, this is going to be a long post. Please feel free to go get a cup of coffee, bring world peace, and cure cancer while you take breaks from reading. Christmas As usual, I spent Christmas with Jen’s family. One thing I really like about this time of year is the sheer amount of food I was forced to ingest on a regular basis.

Over The River And Through The Woods...

… To The Hospital, We Go. What I thought was mere indegestion turned out to keep me awake all of Monday night, so I assumed it was something worse. The answer was both yes and no, apparently. I’d gone to work, intending to make a stop later in the day to Illini Convenient Care to get a prognosis. Unfortunately shortly after getting to work, I became dizzy, nauseous, turned sheet-white, and went into cold sweats.
