Finally rebuilt the "computer center." Way more accessable, even with the wrong shelving. Pics soon.

The more I watch Star Trek: Lower Decks, the more I realize this is kind of what I wanted out of Star Trek: Redskirts.

Day 2 of rearranging the house. Living room is done except for swapping the parts on the sofa. Bedroom now has a new 2x2 shelf FINALLY replacing the TV tray I was using as a nightstand. The office has the new shelving installed....kinda. Really dissapointed in this shelving but it'll do the job. I'll get more into what happened later....

@spottyfox - So, I've had four of the five Sqaureat meals, and I gotta say they're not bad. But they're also not good. Mushy bland texture food saved by strong sauces. Best if fried in olive oil cause then you get a nice crunchy texture. I'd skip it for anything more than a novelty.

Birdie tracks in the snow.

One of the things I like about Seattle is that we don't get snow often, but when we do, it's a good amount. Thick enough to be fun, not often enough to be a pain.

The updated Video Game Shrine. Always hated having the computer in the floor. Now it's got some space for itself, and all I had to do was turn the 2x4 shelving on its side.

Not that I bought an extra shelving unit or anything....

I picked up some IKEA furniture today, and decided to see about rearranging the living room while I was at it. I'v enever liked how the sofa "sat" in the room, making it hard to get into the living room unless you were thin (which I am not).

I pushed the sofa up against the wall to make a larger area to get into the living room, but it seriously broke the Feng-Shui of the room. Now, the sticky-outy bit of the sofa kind of "defines" a small area off to the side of the living room, and there's a giant open area near the fireplace. It's split the living toom in two parts.

I have a four-day weekend coming up, I think what I'm going to do is breakdown the sofa and move that sticky-outy bit from the left side of the sofa to the right. That should open the area up a lot more, and make it "one room" again.

There's an inch of snow on the ground right now, and I live on a hill. They're expecting up to 7 inches in our area, so I should probably go do a mail and package run. I don't think I need groceries for now.

Oh, man. That glazed meat. It's so so so good.

It's snowing a good clip out there right now. :)
