In what is possibly turning into an annual event, we spent last weekend rearranging our recording studio/computer room. This is our fourth, and hopefully, best version of the setup so far.

We’ve needed a hand towel holder in one of our bathrooms forever. I ordered one

The first weekend of 2011 has come and gone. It was a good weekend, though things got a little weird at the end.
We had fun Friday evening recording GeminiDragon 18. We were joined by some friends for the live show as we discussed our predictions for 2011 and covered some amusing year-end lists. Read the rest of this page »

Earlier this year, I purchased a new computer monitor. The monitor was set up on my desk like this:

Spent some time today shopping. In the rain. My mom got a ride down from Atascadero to my place. We rode the bus together to the other end of town. The rainy season has arrived here on the central coast. It’s been raining since late Thursday night. I know I complain a lot about our lack of rain. I guess the atmosphere reads my blog.

Last night, we went out for some Halloween goodness. We started the evening at The Kilt Pub here in San Luis Obispo. We arrived kinda early, and there weren’t many others yet dressed in costumes. Still, we wore ours with pride while we enjoyed a meal and some drinks.

Mike sent me a record.
It was something that he had picked up at the mall and apparently didn’t like. This may actually be the first time someone’s gifted me with some new music specifically because they didn’t like it. Regardless, the gesture is appreciated. Read the rest of this page »

As I had mentioned at the end of the last post, Jen and I did indeed go out on Saturday to buy a microwave. We visited four different shops, and wound up purchasing a stainless steel model made by Oster.
We chose this one based on size and price considerations. Also, it’s stainless steel, and that’s kinda cool.
We’ve estimated that our previous microwave is somewhere between ten and twelve years old. Considering the layer of crust that’s accumulated on its roof, and the fact that the plastic runners under the platter had completely worn away the finish underneath, it seemed like a good time to retire the old nuke box. I’m going to try and find a place that’ll recycle it. Hopefully, that can be done.
The new microwave cooks faster than the old one, which is nice. It’ll take some time to get used to. I pretty much had cooking with the old ‘wave down to a science. But that’s a good problem to have.

Despite the non-events of earlier this week, we finally got some rain here on the central coast. Yesterday afternoon, I headed downtown to have some lunch and enjoy the cool, rainy air. Here’s a few pictures.
