DIY Clock

September 19, 2009 7:10am

Unique and easy DIY project from Threadbanger.

Video is kind of cheesy, but I like the simplicity yet creativity that can come from it.

The mechanism is $5.99 from ClockParts.com and includes everything needed.

Curious Creatures

More books

I recently purchased the following:

“It’s Your Ship” is a leadership book written by a Navy Captain who turned a mediocre ship around to be ranked number 1. Not only that, but every sailor on his ship re-enlisted with the Navy when their time was up – an uncanny success rate.






Plush-o-Rama is a kit that can be found in Barnes and Noble’s bargain books section. It comes with everything an immature adult needs to create a curious creature. I’ve made two so far (I should have some pics sometime soon).

It’s neat to see what is being uploaded to Flickr at any given second from around the world.

Long Weekend

September 4, 2007 7:04am

Work on Saturday went slow, like most holiday weekends, and was a welcome break from the summer time rush. Jenny and I had dinner with Jenny’s mom, then we went out until about 1am touring Wichita on my scooter. It was a cool evening, by far the lowest temperature since June. Sunday started with me sleeping in until 10:30am, which I’m sure is an all-time record for my morning-loving self. Jenny and I then met with Cary and Aubrey at Saigon for lunch before heading to Botanica.

Afterwards we headed to my soon-to-be former apartment to get Kim’s scooter and drop it off at her apartment. She’s going to leave it outside of her apartment, which I don’t think is very safe, but thankfully she feels like she can take over insurance, tags, and other costs of having the bike. Already in the late afternoon, Jenny and I went back to her house to move an old sofa, recliner, and end table to her mom’s house to make room for my furniture. We then packed furniture from my apartment into my car and Jenny’s truck with the help of Cary and Aubrey. At around 11:00pm we quit and Jenny, Aubrey and I headed to meet some friends at Club Glacier to watch a drag queen show.

I slept in again on Monday since it was a holiday from work. Around 1:30pm Jenny, Cary and I went back to my apartment to finish cleaning it out. Cary left to take his son, Travis, home for a nap later in the afternoon. Jenny and I finished around 9pm. I’m now officially moved out!
