Summer vacation is awesome.

I forgot how cool it is to have a well-defined period of time to do fun stuff. It's so much easier to get things scheduled and done when there's a window it needs to be done in.

We're in the middle of redecorating the kitchen:

We went bike camping:

On Sunday we went to the State Fair. This coming Saturday we're going to see Godspeed You! Black Emperor, next week we're flying down to San Diego for 7 days, and then class starts again on the 23rd.

I've also found a few hours to sit around and play video games, which is a thing that I enjoy and haven't had time for in ages. Yesssssss.

I thought I was past my video game phase, sadly, and then I got a PS3 in January and it turns out that no, I am not, and it is WONDERFUL.

It's amazing how good it feels to turn your brain that far off. ::button smashy::

Shooting aliens is super cathartic.

Yay vid'yo games!

What was the final cabinet colour consensus?!

This is so very after the fact, but Trish ended up bribing me in to painting the cabinets a dark espresso color with the promise of painting the walls a lovely sagey green. So now the cabinets are dark brown (and are much more attractive than they used to be). We also got some tacky fruit-themed contact paper to line them with. So that's rad.
