A Life In Objects

So far, here are some of the left-behinds we've found (a peek into the lives of those who occupied the house before us):
-- Two plastic army men, behind the walls in the master bedroom
-- A Garfield air freshener, also behind those walls
-- A Garfield baking sheet still in its original packaging, on top of the kitchen cabinets
-- An arrow, shot into the ceiling in the basement
-- A picture of Jimi Hendrix, resting on a ledge in the basement

Sam and I are lying around my apartment right now, mustering the energy for what promises to be a busy day. Both Sam and I have some work we'd like to get done today (as in, for our real jobs), plus there are normal life chores that we must attend to (the most pressing of which is laundry). Sam's dad is also swinging through town on his way back from a business trip, so we'll probably see him and take him out to dinner in the evening. Besides that, I gather there are more walls to be torn down at the house. We may also take the base cabinets out of the upstairs kitchen; the top cabinets came down yesterday.

Finally, a little blog housekeeping. ... I'm new to Blogger and wasn't sure if this blog was syndicated. It turns out it is, so if you want to keep up with us via feed reader, you can find the subscription at the very bottom of the page.
