"Insert Tetris Theme Song Here"

Oh what a fitting tribute to the wonderful game from 1988... For those of you who just went and looked it up, you're pathetic... I'm guessing it was 1988, but i can't really be sure. So after the furniture guys delivered my furniture (only 2 or 3 minor knicks, and some styrofoam stuff stuck to the dining room chairs) we ran over to The Depot.. or as it all it The Debt-Oh! Picked up some furniture sliders, and proceeded to re-arrange the living room furniture a few times. SOME PEOPLE insisted that the TV be placed on the western wall, ie far away from the door, where those ugly mirrors used to be. Well in order to do so, said couch & chaise, and wandering ottoman, kind of blocked off the space. Rotating the couch 180 degrees, proved to open up the room alot. I heard some chirping about the TV being "too far away". Oh! forgot to mention we picked up the TV stand from Circuit City, which included a nice spot to conceal the center channel! So, thou who shall remain nameless, insisted that the TV and entertainment center would never fit between the stairs and the tiles... scroll below


Not only did it fit, it fit pretty damn well! And, at 52", its nearly impossible to be too far away. A drop in visit from Mr. Musler confirmed that the TV was in fact, in the best position. What you don't see, is the temporary blinds over the window... A tribute to my college days... A Sheet!

So, there's dust everywhere. Evidently the virtually dust-free floor refinishing means, "we'll leave a film of dust on the walls that you'll have a b*tch cleaning. The best results came from a swiffer and some good ole elbow grease. Below, a picture of the awesome table w/granite inlay.


Matching server. It was dark, and there were some light issues.


A dark picture of the bedroom, but it looks real nice! I finally have a bed to sleep in! I'm so excited.




To those of you expecting the normal style of humor that accompanies the writeup - I've been up for 23 hours, and although that in and of itself means i should be loopy, I can't think of any situations i can impose my views upon to make it funny.
Travel note: beware of flying with Halloween costumes. I am going as the guy from Operation, and realized due to my travel plans, I had to bring my costume to Arizona. The TSA agents thought the round object with string coming from it looked suspicious. Upon asking, I opened my bag and explained that it was part of the costume. A few jokes were thrown around, and they explained to me that its not Halloween yet... National Security at its best!

Okay, first off...It's called a "buffet" not a "server" but because you were exhausted I'll let that slide. I absolutely love your dining room table. The TSA thingy was hilarious..so you are "Operation" I can't wait to see the pics!
