Friday with friends and movies was fun. Saturday's move went amazingly well (yay for people as compulsively organized as me!) and the Greek Themed party was a lot of fun. I've puttered around the house today getting a good deal of things done, hit Costco finally, and in a few hours we'll head out to the Tori Amos show. Should be a good night! :)

I've been trying to think of a place to put some bookshelves in the house that was out of the way and in currently unused space. Aha! We're going to put 3 shelves on the naked wall that's behind our couch in the den - here's a pic of it with the old rabbit hutch that used to be there, that's been long gone http://www.diabolis.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=211&pos=46. I'm hoping we can put the hardcover books in the front hallway out there (freeing up the hallway for easier walking), have room for some books from Brian's computer room (giving him more room for collectibles) and space for our games that are currently inconveniently tucked into the end tables in our living room. We'll buy the wood and stain them the same as the 1 large shelf that's up on the right hand wall in that same room now (and use the same type of brackets that we used before) http://www.diabolis.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=222. I figure it will run us around $100 since the brackets are $6 each and we need a bunch. Of course, I'll try and sell the shelf that's in our front hall now and its mate that's sitting in the attic right now, so perhaps that will get us some cash to cover it. Does anyone want a pair of shelves like these? they are collapsible dark wood ones (not stackable, I hate to say). You can see them here: http://www.diabolis.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=95&pos=6

Ah home decorating! After Dragoncon we'll start making our kitchen look (decoratively) like the one in Framingham did after we completely rennovated it.

You're going to Tori as well? Then maybe we'll see you there -- [livejournal.com profile] irisbleu and I are also going.

I was just browsing around for book cases today, I want to replace the falling apart laminated pressboard ones that I have. Finding real wood ones at a price I can deal with is going to be a challenge.

I could use little bookcases like that, maybe for my front hall or my bedroom
Let me know when you're ready to get rid of them, and how much you'd want for em.

Now, if only I could CLEAN off some shelves for my other stuff!

Hmm, $25 for the pair? I paid either $20 or $30 each before at Linen's and Things (I can't remember which, and L&T doesn't seem to sell anything like that on their website for reference).

You can take them whenever you want them - just let me know! :)

Cool! That I can afford!
Although not until the 31st, when I get paid. When do you kiddies leave for Dcon? I'll drop by before then. Just let me know when is convenient for you.

Damn me for actually PAYING bills *sighs*

We leave on Thursday the 1st in the AM sometime. If its easier for you, you can grab them after DC (but we'll be around I think on that Wed the 31st, probably packing still) :)

Ty's got the home decorating bug too. This weekend, after helping Mike & Mo move, he got all manic about going thru old clothes, making storage space and redorating our bedroom. I came home from waitressing Saturday night to find he had built two new shoe racks, put new sheets on the bed, etc. Weird.
