dumb law. first thing i thought of though was legalizing dark tint. my black car with 18% tint never got past warm in the summer.

lol. i almost bought one but the reason i didnt is because i hated the grip. bought the M&P instead

lol...lets shoot a potato that weighs probably 12oz at you and see what it does?!

ive got a few before pics saved. i wish i took more...like the upstairs bathroom had a rotted floor in the corner...really small...i took pics of the rotted area, but not the whole bathroom, so it'll be hard to see a change if i dont have pics to compare it to

thats actually my younger brother. lol. all the time though, i get ID'd. people must think im like 17. fuck, i got carded to get into EASTON after 9pm a few weeks ago. me and the g/f walked by the guy, then i realized i left my wallet in the car, went back out to get it (left her waiting), coming back in guy goes "you got your ID?" i was like "are you serious???" and he says "i wouldnt ask you if i wasn't serious" i gave him my CCW permit for shits and giggles, he looked at it for a minute, looked at me somewhat oddly and said "thanks". lol

i need to take some pics. the big thing we still have to do (and i say big because i dont know how hard it'll be) is to put cable outlets in the bedrooms. i cant sleep without a TV on, so thats up on the priority list

the stripping part at least. lol mud tomorrow. hopefully we can paint by thursday, finish tile upstairs tomorrow, downstairs thursday after painting, any misc stuff friday, and saturday is moving day

well, being as there is no gas now, i have no hot water. oh well. its done now, it wasnt a bunch of scoring/scraping. more like iron the wall, move steamer, pull paper, move steamer, pull paper. was a lot easier with 2 people working on it http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y267/evan938/0324091229a-1.jpg?t=1237948128%7C brother is about 6'2

update - (and im copying from another forum i post on because im too lazy and tired right now) today, instead of replacing drywall, i rented a wallpaper steamer for $21. it took me working from 830ish to 5pm with a 30 minute break, and my brother helping me from ~1130 to 5. this is ontop of the 2-3 hours me and my mom spent on it last night. today with the steamer, it took time, but it came off NICELY. a lot better than any sort of scoring/soaking would have done. after we got done with the wallpaper, g/fs sisters b/f (the painter) came over, finished everything from yesterday. we then went to get my 55 gallon fish tank while he was doing the wall it was going on. we took 2 2x4's about 54" long, put 2 2x4's on the tops at each end, and one attached to the side, so me and brother lifted the tank after it was emptied, g/f slid contraption underneath. we had 5 5-gallon buckets w/ lids. we drained water into each, put 1 oscar in each, and a pleco in the 4th, and extra water in #5. carried the tank down the steps (a bitch with ~50lbs of sand, which was wet...probably 150lbs all together...wet sand, tank, 2x4s, etc) fit it somehow into his scion xA. put the 5 buckets of water into g/fs dads mazda6, along with the fluval filter got back, got all the fish in to the tank, went back to her parents, got more water. only had 3 capfuls of dechlorinator, so i still have a bucket of water there i need to put into the tank. heater is on, filter is on, so hopefully they're good tomorrow also got my appliances today. not what i remember them as in store (black plastic siding, stainless front. i thought the sides were stainless)...turns out fridge is 1.5" too wide, so we had to cut part of the cabinet blank and the counter to fit it. oven didnt slide right in, bottom of cabinet wasnt square, but we got it in. working on putting an electrical box in for microwave now. also g/fs dad started tiling the upstairs bathroom, but since hes got a bad shoulder, he wasnt able to cut the tiles after a while, so him and his dad are going to work on it tomorrow i took my camera but didnt get a single pic. maybe ill upload a few from the cell later of me and my bro working edit... of my list from yesterday 1) the plumber comes to fix the gas leak so we can get the heat on and have hot water called today, said part will be in tomorrow and he is coming over as soon as he gets it 2) the appliances should be coming as well tomorrow, which will be good, but suck at the same time since done 3) we've got to redo the walls in the kitchen. somewhat done. going to prime, mud, and prime again tomorrow 4) gotta run a water line from the sink to the fridge for the ice maker/water dispenser (god i cant wait to not have to fill ice trays anymore...w00t!)didnt get done. also have to hook up dishwasher...maybe g/fs dad did it though...not sure 5) hoping to move my fish tank since its the only day off my brother has, and he's the only one strong enough to help me (g/fs dad has a bum shoulder, cant lift shit)done. what a PITA 6) guy that goes to the dr office my mom works at who does carpet is going to come give me an estimate done. wasn't a bad price either, seeing as he quoted me less than 1/2 for the same thing g/fs parents neighbor had done, house is same layout 7) need to get paint for bedrooms, patch walls, remove anchors/nails/etc not even close. wnaplay - let me know if you found anything on the paint youve got around 8) tile bathroom? we'll see. g/fs dad started this. with his bad shoulder he had to stop because it was bothering him...he couldnt cut the tiles anymore. her grandpa is coming over tomorrow to help him finish those up

and the triple. im off to bed. tired as hell

ha. you posted too quick for me. i remembered theres a sunbelt ~2 miles from my apartment on reynoldsburg new-albany road

i dont know if its a company or what...i think the name on the account was henry phillip, or phillip henry...im not sure i know he told us today, he was over working on cameron mitchell's house in UA (i believe thats where he said it was) and it looks like sunbelt has the steamer, $14 for the 1/2 day. gonna get up early and pick that up by 8, if it doesnt work, ill get it back before times up. if its working and i just need some more time, im sure i could do something to extend it for the full day, plus, ill only be out $14 instead of a shitload more for our plan now ill update later how it goes

yeah, her sisters b/f looked at it and went "what a dick, he sold you the most expensive shit they sell, even with our account" nothing i can do now though. ill just know if i ever have to go back let me know what you find at your place, im just in blacklick, so i can stop over at some point to figure out what i can take off you

i forgot you worked there...you know any place that would rent it?

if youve got some white, i was actually going to stop by SW to get a 5g bucket...g/fs sister's b/f gave me his work account number to save some $, but still, 2 gallons and 3 quarts was $110. let me know. i probably wont need a whole 5g, but if youve got a good amount you want to get rid of, ill probably take it from you

i appreciate the offer. im hoping we'll have enough help to get stuff done this week. im off all week, g/fs dad has been out on disability for 2 years, so he doesnt have shit to do...g/fs mom is off work (works at home too) by noon, so she can run to the store for us...tomorrow my brother said he's gonna come help, and thursday my mom said she was going to come over on her days off. luckily the house isnt in horrible shape, it just has a lot of little projects to do that take time but i may have to recruit you once i get some funds to redo my bath tub and tiles. the one you posted up was pretty smooth!

uh, yeah, fuck all that. lol any idea where i can rent that steamer? might as well give it a shot

they're retarded. i know. the dumbasses even painted over wallpaper in the bedrooms upstairs. im so pissed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdpLARNtKIA think i can rent this at lowes? if so, i might try that before dropping close to $100 bucks or more on drywall and supplies and BTW tim, my new house is semi-close to you. im back in that neighborhood you stopped by to pick up the yuengling a few months ago

yeah...we got the eagles claw (to score the wallpaper) and the chemical to make it easier to come off. its being a bitch because they didnt prep the wall correctly before hanging it. such a PITA i wish i took a pic to show how much 3 of us got off before we quit for the night. my mom came over about 7:20, me and her worked on it until 10, with random help from my g/f and her mom and sister for some time i think the area above the oven, about 2'x3' is 90% cleared, sink area, ~40"x36" is pretty clear, and about 30"x48" around the fridge is somewhat cleared... itll take so much time to strip it all it'll be crazy. thanks for the good luck wishes though. im gonna need em!

well, if it was only closed for ~20 minutes, you know its not a fatality. if so, that shit would be shut down for HOURS. probably just an above average car accident.

so today, i closed on my house...around 3pm...went over to the house right away where the g/fs parents (who live around the corner) were already inside changing locks, removing plug covers, etc. getting started. list of stuff we got done today - replaced doorbell button (easy) all door handles/locks changed fixed cracked front door (will need to be replaced eventually...temporary fix) installed kitchen faucet, only to **** it up to the point i destroyed it by tightening the water line and not holding onto the bolt up top, thus twisting the copper line on the faucet. ended up having to get the g/f to drop ~$80 on a new faucet + a $25 gift card i had. (didnt realize i left my wallet in my nice pants i ditched for torn jeans)...havent changed this out yet installed shutoff valves on kitchen faucet water lines got the dishwasher removed and out of the house g/fs sisters boyfriend who is a painter came over and did whole front room, into the upstairs hallway, and downstairs part way. cut out rotted floor in upstairs bathroom, replaced w/ 3/4" plywood removed toilet upstairs to strip linoleum and tile floor we then started to tackle the wallpaper in the kitchen. horrible shit...ill post pic below...from what my mom said, there is something you're supposed to put down before you wallpaper, to make it come off easier, which apparently the last fucktard who was in there DIDNT do. after over an hour of scraping, we got over the sink, a little above where the oven goes, and a bit of behind the fridge space there is SO much more to do, im not going to waste 2+ days fucking with wallpaper. tomorrow, we're going to pick up some 3/8" drywall, g/fs dad has some extension boxes for the outlets, and we're just going to pull baseboards, put up drywall, tape it, mud it, and hopefully call it a day. then, when i get new cabinets in a few months or so, we'll just fill in behind the cabinets where we're not drywalling to top it off, im ready to fall over im so tired....it figures i couldnt get ANY sleep last night, been up since 430am, and got an hour nap in at about 11. hoping tomorrow 1) the plumber comes to fix the gas leak so we can get the heat on and have hot water 2) the appliances should be coming as well tomorrow, which will be good, but suck at the same time since \/ 3) we've got to redo the walls in the kitchen. 4) gotta run a water line from the sink to the fridge for the ice maker/water dispenser (god i cant wait to not have to fill ice trays anymore...w00t!) 5) hoping to move my fish tank since its the only day off my brother has, and he's the only one strong enough to help me (g/fs dad has a bum shoulder, cant lift shit) 6) guy that goes to the dr office my mom works at who does carpet is going to come give me an estimate 7) need to get paint for bedrooms, patch walls, remove anchors/nails/etc 8) tile bathroom? we'll see. busy day tomorrow. probably be working 8am - 10pm or so...im hoping to get a good chunk of that list done, but in reality, id be happy to get 3-4 things done. hopefully my brother can give us a hand all day to move it along faster. fuck. and here's the hideous wallpaper that needs to be gone like panties on prom night http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y267/evan938/IMG_2509.jpg?t=1236388299
