House Work and Horror Movies
It's been almost a month since my last post. I'm sure you have probably read about the reasoning on Wine When Drunk From A Mug, but in case you haven't, it seems the previous owners of this house had their internet service scheduled to get cut off in mid September. The fuckers moved out a month ago but they continued their service an extra three weeks. This means that we had about a 24 hour window when we first moved in to use the internet before the server figured out that our modem was not supposed to be hooked up at this location, so we got locked out of the information superhighway until very recently. I have a lot of catching up to do.
The house is coming along swimmingly. We have painted most of what we wanted to paint. I've poisoned the back yard because it's more weeds than grass. Not the nice weeds either. The ones with the little stickers that get all over you and then you track them inside and step on them as soon as you take your shoes off. Those kind. They're dead now. Not so clever anymore, are you, you fucking pricker weed bastards? We also had to take down a couple of ceiling panels in the sun room due to mold. I called Rob over for that one last weekend. We got some beer and started tearing shit up. The job, as usual, was bigger than what we had anticipated. It turned out that they had built the roof to sit on top of two out of three of these panels we were after. We didn't notice this until we had ripped one of the fuckers clean in half so there was no going back. Oh well. We got the things down and the replacement panels we bought don't match the remaining old ones at all. Who looks at the ceiling anyways?
We also got satellite the other day. We opted for the bronze high definition package, and I'm so glad we did. This thing has a channel called Monsters HD which is 24 hours of uncut horror flicks. They play everything from Nightmare on Elm Street to Aliens to anything with Vincent Price in it. They also seem to run the movies in themes. The other day they played six mummy movies in a row, and not a single one of them was the Brendon Frazier one.
Speaking of horror movies, now that I'm back online I need to come up with some new reviews for the BSL. I have a movie called The Tooth Fairy that I Netflixed which will be reviewed soon.
