Feel better Lloyd.

Put together an aquarium stand. Shaun wanted to have an aquarium, but knows nothing of care and maintenance. I used to raise African Cichlids with pretty good results. So Shaun offered to fund the tank, if I would pick all the associated gear and fish, and maintain it. It's a relaxing hobby when you choose the right filter system/paraphernalia, so it should be fun to get back into.

Probably so, as Chicken & Apple sausage seems to be a popular thing here. It was absolutely delicious though.

Roasted vegetables with spicy Chicken & Parmesan sausage. I love that I now live in a place where I can find something like spicy Chicken & Parmesan sausage!

R.I.P. Dennis.

I bought a Silver, full face helmet at San Francisco Scuderia West, before I even started the Scarabeo up. I wouldn't even consider backing out of the driveway without one. Al, that poem was funny as hell! Thinking of having Shaun print it up in a nice font to frame.

That does look like excellent work Mikey!

New life... new wheels. It's a 2004 Aprilia Scarabeo 500, with only 2000 miles on the odometer. Sorry about all the pics, Shaun went overboard. She'll cruise at 75 all day long, and top out near 100 mph. Used 1/3 tank of gas (3 gallons), so about 1 gallon for a 100 mile trip.

Getting ready to catch a train into San Francisco, to look at a scooter for sale.

It's funny, because everyone out here in the Sacramento area is talking about how hot it is. I feel pretty comfy relatively. It's nice not being in 100% humidity.

Well, Delicate Steve and Susie are home. We weren't here two minutes, and Susie and Teddy (Bichon/Poodle mix) were chasing each other around the house and having a great time. They're going to be great friends, and that's a relief! Susie has already eaten from Teddy's food dish, and Teddy had no issue with that whatsoever. Yay!

Agreed, it looks great! Got notice earlier that Susie is in the the air! She'll be in Sacramento at 11:10.

Thanks all!!! Today I did some shopping here in Elk Grove...towels, toiletries, etc... Opened a bank account, and ate the first good bagel I've had in 12 years. Had lunch at the Apple Sacramento campus (it's really in Elk Grove), got Shaun's oil changed and his dog groomed (no, that's not gay code for anything else), unpacked, did a load of laundry (that might be code), and generally had a great day! Tonight Shaun and I will run into Sacramento for some bedding stuffs. Tomorrow will hopefully be the safe arrival of Susie, weather permitting (no transporting animals if over 85 degrees). If the temperature in Dallas cooperates, I should see her before noon. P.S. Your kids are adorable Nate!

Getting ready to leave for the airport, and become a Californian!

^ When you're right you're right!

Well they'll be perfect for my needs. I'll buy you breakfast at the Hummingbird!

OMG! Those are gorgeous! And I love that the height is adjustable. Are you sure you don't want to hold onto them?

Damn that's cheap! I need to go to Ikea on Thursday anyway (bed frame, nightstands, bedding), so that's a great option. Thanks for the tip!

That was my first thought, but it just didn't quite fit. There were several other pics, and I had no trouble naming them, but this one was a tough one. Ding ding ding! We have a winner! I think that's it.

I need some reasonably priced speaker stands. I've taken my Daber Audio Monitor 3's out of storage, and I've shipped them to my new home in the Sacramento area, but I'll want some 18" to 22" stands to get them at a good height. I've combed the web, but thought you guys might have some recommendations that I may have overlooked.

^ Me too. Happy belated Birthday Mike!!!

I would tend to agree. Hah, I've seen a similar video before. The only way I'd ride more than one is if my fantasy of twins comes true.

Happy Belated Birthday Birgir!

Cool, thanks Tyll, on my way to check it out.
