Oh Saturday 27Jun09

Just finished running and kayaking a bit, so I’m just chilling at my place listening to music and messing around with Python/Django a bit so I can contribute to Bazaarvoice’s open sourced “TwitterVoice” app. I think I’ve made it apparent I’m not a huge Twitter fan, but it’s a good chance to scratch my code monkey itch and gain some more experience with frameworks. If it goes well, I may use it for some future personal projects like… Friends 09 maybe (for historical reference, here are 99, 00, 01, and 04). =p

Been in a somewhat mellow introspective mood lately… but I don’t really have anything to blog about regarding that, other than to state it. :-)

I stopped by a flooring store today to look at tile and I can’t decide what I want! Arrgh!

“I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it’s over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again” – Everclear

Ochs and Sam thought I made a commitment to post what I did every weekend in this post, but I don’t think I did. Regardless, I suppose it’s a decent idea, so here it is:

  • Friday: Went to Home Depot with Nancy to look at tile for my house. Needed to get a replacement light bulb and water-filter, but forgot to take note of which on both accounts.
  • Friday: Went to see Up by my lonesome. Left feeling a little post-Amelie… like I wanted to hug someone, but less “romantic” like after Amelie.
  • Saturday: Got contract work at my house (tiling, knocking out a wall, etc.) estimated
  • Saturday: Peter moved out, so I vacuumed the room after he left… I then went to clean up some other parts of the house since I was already in the mode.
  • Saturday: Watched season one of Weeds with Chad and Nancy after bumming around listening to music at my place, getting not very satisfactory burgers at Fuddruckers and a now almost customary weekend double iced alamocha at Texpresso.
  • Sunday: Went to Lowes and picked up the light bulb and water filter I needed. Took a quick glance at tile.
  • Sunday: Went home and got a hair cut (thanks, Mom!). My doggy Orbit is getting old. =(
  • Sunday: Hung out with Ochs & Sam at Burnet Sonic for a while at night.

No pictures this week, though. Adios!

I wanna hold em’ like they do in Texas plays,
Fold em’ let em’ hit me, raise it, baby stay with me, (I love it)
Luck and intuition play the cards with spades to start,
And after he’s been hooked I’ll play the one that’s on his heart – Lady GaGa
