the writing on the wall

semper verus ad finem fidelis
always true and faithful to the end

ulula cum canis, cum quibus esse cupis
one who howls with dogs, is with whom one desires to be
original motto is lupis, not canis

sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc
we gladly feast on those who would subdue us
(motto of the addams family, which friday and i will be adopting,
and, did you all know that wednesday's middle name was friday?)

qui me amat, amat et canem meam
love me, love my dog

been a real shitty few weeks

but i suppose it's about time i start to update this again. i half joked with ryan about how the property should be called heartbreak hill. he quickly corrected me and said no, call it 'new beginnings'. he has been through the ringer too, but at least he still can say things like that. so here's to new beginnings and ryan starting the whole shebang next week, we should be moving right along and have a lot of updates soon.

in the meantime, here are pics of some things that i have now, including the above pic of my very first set of keys to something that i (and fred) own. i am also posting a pic of the fancy I-talian toilet i just bought on ebay... where i am also trying to buy my hotwater heater, furnace and whatever i can get my hands on there.

below are my windows, my huge tracks of sliders, the front door you will pass through on your way into mi casa, and that crazy european commode. and as an aside, i am planning on getting the least expensive toilet out there for the downstairs studio, i have found it, and can you believe that american standard actually makes a toilet they call, you ready?, the plebe.

this is NOT the plebe
