Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" has become the subject of quite a few YouTube videos. For you Kanye West fans out there you probably recognize the source now of the sample in his song "Stronger".

I picked the video rendition off YouTube I find most entertaining, but feel free to check out the rest!

There used to be times when it felt like I had a good clear view of the road ahead and where my life is going. Those times are not these times. Lately it feels like I've been on the "Zoom Zoom" track from the Mazda commercial and every turn is unexpected. Some turns end up in a head-on collision while others actually end up quite nice. While the ride is proving to be interesting to say the least I wouldn't mind seeing a stretch of straight road ahead for a bit...

As far as the home improvement stuff goes, the vinyl tear-up began today and I'm hopeful that the tile installation will be complete sometime on Saturday. That paves the way for the wood flooring installation to begin on Tuesday! WOOHOO! I'll post some before and afters as soon as I get some afters.

So I'm trying out this new diet called "eat less and get off your ass you lazy piece of crap" and I must say, I'm liking the results. I'm now fifteen pounds lighter than the last time I stepped on a scale...

I know it defies all logic, but watching your portions and actually exercising really can help you get in better shape!

I'm even going to try eating vegetables.............and now I better go call Pops to make sure he's still breathing...

The Gods have blessed us with a gift so pristine in its edible glory that thinking of life without it makes me cry myself to sleep at night. Yes friends, I'm talking about Dark Chocolate Peanut M&Ms.


I even have it straight from the mouth of a nonbeliever that these are "arguably" and quite possibly even "marginally" better than regular dark chocolate M&Ms. That speaks volumes in and of itself.

So my friends, whatever you happen to be doing at this very moment, stop. Stop and think about what you need to do to get your paws on a bag.

When I first moved into the house all of the walls were white and all of the fixtures were plain and boring. Slowly but surely I'm starting to get away from that. The first project was to put some color on the walls. That plan made it as far as the living room, but I'm not giving up yet!

A couple weeks ago I started on the guest bathroom.




Lemme know what you think!
