Dragon V's Ramblings

I read this sentence as:

Someone has replaced the section of my brain that controls motor skills with parsley.

It's much funnier to picture things this way.

I don't have motor skills with parsley. I may be kinky and perverted, but I have to draw the line somewhere :-p

However see if the edit helps clarify things

mmm, parsley. but what about mint? and thyme?
perhaps if you take enough cold medicine, you'll have an herb garden. that would be convenient, to have one in your head.

Well I might not have an herb garden in my head, but I'm certain it would feel like it. I think mint popped in there after a couple of screwdrivers ;)

How significant is the damage? Better or worse than the hole we put in the wall trying to get the boxspring up there? :oP hehe. Can sanding (and maybe a shot of paint) can't make it look basically as it was?

Hey, at least you didn't almost hit a kid yesterday...I nearly did..twice! Stupid kid kept running in and out of traffic...*sigh* (more on this later)

Actually the top is made of the birch panel stuff that Home Depot has for cabinet sides. Our cabinet guy left a couple of panels out in the rain a couple of weeks ago and I picked them up (scavanger that I am). I dried them off so they didn't get damaged and I attached one of them to the top of the extension.

Most of it is a cool looking satin black and the top is a lighter wood colored smooth stained finish (preferable to the rough and potentially painful plywood finish ;). It looks fairly ok. I do need to even out the 2 sides that I cut on the panel, but they face the desks and aren't that big of a deal. The part that broke off looks a bit lighter than the rest and it's on the cut sides so it is also possible to cover it up with desk stuff.

I'll show it to you next time you go over. It's not a huge problem, but it was one of those vaguely annoying bits of self-inflicted damage.

Eh, a few weeks ago I almost mowed down a family who decided to cross the Gateway during a green light (i.e I had the green). If not for the fact that had slowed down because I was going to turn right on Piedras, I probably wouldn't have been able to stop in time. They just stepped out into traffic (after standing still for a couple of minutes no less).

I'm convinced that some people have subconcious death-wishes.

i think you showed me those panels in the garage the other day when we took in the plywood and styrofoam panels. I was just thinking about it, was gonna ask if it was the corner was coverd by the desks or it was the outside one... either way, it sounds pretty cool, gonna have to check it out hehe
