Bang, thud, BOOM... the sounds of money
So now I've gotten myself into contracting. Teig and I are remodeling a house for one of his friends. Fun stuff, if a tad more physical than what I was doing. I just got back from a week of jackhammering concrete, hauling it away, spreading 6 yards of rock, and ripping out a floor and two walls... oh, and killing LOTS of carpenter ants, little fuckers. Got me a tan, but I also introduced a crowbar to my knee at faster-than-wise velocity. That fucking HURT. Nothing like smashing a nerve bundle and having the joint swell to pinch the nerves more. Good times!
It was fun to hook-up with
nyghtowl and
elimtevir a few weeks back. Teig and I are hoping to harass 'em a bit as we've got an upcoming job nearby in Portland. I was all excited, thinking I'd have the week of Burning Man off... but no. I don't *sigh*. So all y'all that're going, drink/smoke one for me. I'll be thinkin' of ya :-D
Heheh, now I'm feeling whiny so I'm done.
