Before

(e:james) and my new place on Ashland near Potomac.

The 'after' pictures will be up sometime this weekend - these pictures are before we started painting or anything.

Yeah wood floors (if they are in great shape) assuming that is what is under the carpet is great. But soft rugs (assuming again in good shape) are better. Yes they are hard to clean. But in winter they are warmer. Also if they are soft people can lay on them and be comfy and not cold. But that is just my preferance. Rugs are also a good way to help protect the floors. Some home owners will belive it or not tear up the rugs and switch them after every long term tenent.

Jenks: hello!
Felly: Thanks :)
Museumchick: Fireplace doesn't work - we'll put candles in it or something
JSL: yeah, we don't have to replaster - you should have just moved instead of remodeling :)

Looks like a great place.

Note the pasely wall paper in the entry room. The back stare well looks like Charlie Brown's shirt mutated in a Burrough's novel.

Wallpaper aside the place is awesome.

jsl writes at 12:59:14 05/23/07 - Comment #18729: Looks great! Seems from the pictures that it will require less work than my house which I just blogged about on this site! If you need a sledgehammer, though, let me know. ;)

Years in the making.

The photo group that I moderate on Flickr has 326 members, although of course only about two dozen regularly contribute photos and discussion.

Why oh why is there always a couple people who so have to dominate everything and always make trouble? Why does everything always have to be about them and their position and just ME ME ME. How can someone constantly manage to be at the root of all the trouble in a group, and still have so many arguments about how it's not possibly about them, and how they're just a good person that somehow always gets conspired against?

Do you hear that Mister Anderson?

And so: I got out my ban-hammer today. Ka-smash.

That is the sound of inevitability.

Felt sort of good. But my stomach is in knots because it's going to be a shitty week full of emails back and forth and fall out.

Ugh. [s]326[/s] 325
