Note for the Day

In the Life of a Beer Mat

Sitting on this Spotlessly Polished Table You may Think my Life is Rather Boring

Well for that Conclusion no Points You will be Scoring

The Things I See and Hear would make Your Hair Curl

Oh Dear Dear Watch Your Blood Pressure Pearl

Take Yesterday when the England Football Match was on I thought my Ear Drums were Tearing

Watch out Mate Dont Dump that Glass so Hard Down on Me

If I could Move I would Give You a Good Whack Put You Through the Glass and Against that Tree

Stop Being so Cruel now Your Bending me in Half

I Wish You would go Away Leave Me in Peace and Starve

Ah Another New Customer I hope You Treat Me Gentle

Thats Lovely and Soft You are Really Sensible

Whats That Your Talking About Uh Disgusting You Need Your Brains Scrambled

Pity I Dont Have a Mate who could take You Away and have You Reassembled

I love the crosshatch/zigzag pattern on their shells.

It’s still a good pizza.

Just chilling in the clear water right off the Halifax Waterfront boardwalk.

Two BILLY bookcases and one KIVIK sofa fit perfectly against the far living room wall.

Beyond Van Gogh Austin: "Beyond Van Gogh uses cutting-edge projection technology to create an engaging journey into the world of Van Gogh. Using his dreams, his thoughts, and his words to drive the experience as a narrative, we move along projection swathed walls wrapped in light, colour, and shapes that swirl, dance and refocus into flowers, cafes and landscapes."

To go with the adobo, dice a tomato, mix with 1 tbsp shrimp paste, some minced onion, a bit of lime juice, and a few optional slices of chili.

Original plan was to have a bookcase on either side of the floor return vent but it turns out the doors and vents are asymmetrically arranged with insufficient space for one shelf so we'll need another layout.
