I Suck At Web Soup

Karen and I spent the early part of our day running more errands. So far, it has been a very exciting vacation break, I know. Following the errands, I was again motivated to work on renovating the first floor bathroom.

The task today for the first floor bathroom was to add blocks of wood between the studs (including me... just kidding). Like most home improvement projects, one task always inevitably leads to another unforeseen task.

In the case of our first floor bathroom, the unforeseen task had to deal with our studs which were more noticeable once the insulation was removed from the wall. For anyone curious, our first floor bathroom shares a wall with our kitchen. As our kitchen has cabinets hanging on the wall, the screws that hang the cabinets protrude through the wall.

Normally, the screws that attach cabinets to walls are set into the studs for sturdiness. Oftentimes, when the screw cannot be attached directly to a stud, a drywall anchor is used to hold the screw within the piece of drywall. For anyone who knows me, they would know that I am not a big fan of that idea (even though the anchor works) especially when it comes to hanging heavy objects like cabinets full of breakable dishes.

So naturally, I figured that it would be best to attach pieces of wood (where I can) between the studs such that any future screws can be drilled directly into wood and not simply a drywall anchor. And so, I spent the better part of today cutting wood and attaching the wood between the studs shared by the kitchen and first floor bathroom. Realistically, I probably did not even need to do that. I had just figured it would make installing new kitchen cabinets easier in the future. (I currently don't plan on installing new kitchen cabinets, but you never know.)

Anyway, I had barely finished that home improvement task before going to hang out with my friends (Marc and Kelley). We had switched our weekly get-together day to today because we had plans the rest of the week.

As usual, Marc was gracious enough to make dinner. The risotto dinner he made was delicious. (Cue Rachael Ray's "Yum-O" sound.) I could have eaten all of it.

On the agenda for the night were a few more episodes of the greatest television show ever: Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The episodes that we watched were: "Doublemeat Palace" about Buffy's new fast food job; "Dead Things" about Warren killing his ex-girlfriend and attempting to frame Buffy; and "Older and Far Away" about Dawn's guidance counselor/vengeance (justice) demon putting a curse to trap everyone inside Buffy's house on her birthday.

And for anyone curious, the justice demon known as Halfrek was formerly known as Cecily, the object of Spike's (then William) affection who had rejected him. The rejection consequently led the devastated Spike to find Drusilla and become a vampire.

Following the three episodes, we decided to end the night with some Web Soup. Now, I suck at Web Soup.

(The video below is from Web Soup.)


Web Soup was airing its Golden Download Awards show. Needless to say, the show was comical. In my opinion, the best bit from the show was the watermelon saga. That bit cracked me up.

All in all, it was a great night.
