Perkins, you're up much too early.

I really was, which is why I went back to sleep, instead of looking at VW's portfolio. I have to leave soon too, so I won't be able to do it justice until I get back. I love the look of it though.

I highly recommend visiting SF and bopping around the city with Perkins.

JZ is a must in this scenario too. I agree everyone should come visit.

I just created a very rough website. That was fun! Can't wait to work on it more later. For now, though, I must walk my poor dog.

If you want to see my little place on the web: [link]

is there an easy way to tell if the paint on the walls was latex or oil? I'm going to ask my landlady, but she may not know because the house hasn't been repainted in about 10 years. I know on the kitchen cabinets are peeling becuase they put one over the other.

Not that I can think of, but if you prime, it shouldn't be a problem. Kilz II is ideal for that, as I recollect.

Whew! Six miles on the bike.

Good start on the website, vw. I just wish I didn't have this stalker vibe now. ::evil laugh::

ETA2: vw, do you live in a nunnery?!? Looks very church-y.

Eddie, as long as you don't show up on my fire escape at 2am, I think we're good.

I'm having cold pizza and chips for breakfast. Mmmmm...

Askye, there are some great non-toxic paint removers out there that would work on the windows. Even if you don't want to do the whole window, a cheap dollar store art set paint brush (or brushes) and some paint remover (And a putty knife) along the cracks will loosen them up.

Then you can toss the brush, and use another to touch up the look with other paint.

Another thing you can try is to press firmly along the window frame where it meets the window casing. sometimes there's just enough give to break the "seal" of the paint and the window will have enough clearance to still open.

A putty knife (1-1/2 to 2 inch) is also handy for this, if you have a stubborn section of paint and need to "score" it so it knows where to break.

Hi everybody :) I was in Utah for work stuff and some uncomfy things happened. I may write about it in LJ later. Hates when icky stuff happens at work.

ION, I go to see the Pixies on June 2 AND June 3! Woot! And then I go to two Sleater-Kinney shows in a couple of weeks! Double-woot! And I'm addicted to exclamation points, too!
