Someone posted this video in the lost_tv community. There was also a comment about this being a drinking game. I think it would make for a helluva drunk night.
Drink when someone says “what”, “huh”, or anything along those lines. ooo…maybe even extend it to the 5 W’s (who what where when why)
This afternoon we got our mantle back from Andy’s parents. His mom helped strip the green paint off of it. Although there are a few spots that need touching up, it’s so nice to have the original wood. We still need to secure it to the bricks. Right now, it’s just leaning in place…hah.

In five minutes Andy and I finally got this swing off of the ground and hung from the tree. It came from our old house…where it was never hung. It’s been sitting in this yard for over a year, so it’s about time we enjoyed it. We were originally planning on hanging it on our porch, but we plan on replacing the ceiling of the porch with beaded board. Plus, it would have taken up a lot of space in order to have room to ‘swing’…therefore, it only made sense to hang it from this perfect branch on the tree!
And the good news keeps on coming in.
First, congrats to one of my long time, best (in the true sense) friends Stephanie for her recent engagement to her found half!
Another congrats to my friend Kelly for her engagement, but she’s a loser and doesn’t have a livejournal (hah).
My Grandma’s Pookie (kitty) has returned after missing for a month!
Andy has a wonderful job opportunity.
Several friends have exciting trips coming up 🙂
Vertical House has been re-vamped.
And one that fell into our lap about 20 minutes ago is sort of a different excitement. Vertical House is participating in Record Store Day on April 19th. We’ve been trying to find all sorts of distributors to order new vinyl from, but hadn’t been having good luck. So 20 minutes ago I got a phone call from a distro in California that saw we were participating in RSD and specialized in vinyl. He sent us sign-in info so we can peruse their site. HOLY SHIT! We found just about EVERY Radiohead release on vinyl…all in one place. Not to mention a plethora of other bands that have been special requested.
So, again, LJ friends of mine that are interested in vinyl: is there anything you are looking for?!?!

Saturday, after the Artist Market, Andy and I went to Surin. We got there right as they opened for dinner and had a nice, private meal on the patio.
Our grapevine is taking over the top stair landing. Last year, when he was outside, we never saw any grapes because the birds always got to them first. I wonder if he’ll fruit this year indoors…
Today we cleaned up the backyard (but still have a ways to go…) and planted Elephant Ears and Yellow Jasmine along the side of the house. Hopefully we’ll be able to train the Yellow Jasmine to climb along the porch. The raised beds are now in their position, and eventually they will lead into the greenhouse. Today we bought some starter plants in case the seeds don’t work out. I also researched which veggies and herbs are compatible so I know who can share beds with each other. Maple and Sadie had a fun day in the yard, and Maple showed off her tree-climbing skills.
