Loft Update
I’ve been too busy to ruminate about dating lately. Here’s what 8 hours of loft work buys you:
Running your own 200′ cable line from the electrical room to your unit. Savings: $350. View from 12′ up (my cable line is one of the white lines in the middle of the picture):
Constructing and restaining an IKEA vanity after stripping the old finish (18 hours with toxic chemicals — NOT ADVISED):

looking great Ed! =)
Ed, or the loft?
wow. i like the stain job you did.
Stain is pretty, but I think the 18 hours of your time was a really steep cost to pay. Still… impressive. =)
too busy to think about dating? whatever, the fumes must have gotten to you if you think we buy that. you’re just too busy to write about it.
the loft looks like it’ll be a beauty!
Nice job, didn’t think you’d go through with the restaining though. But what’s 18 hours compared to x years of being satisfied with the vanity.
heh, i notice there were no $aving$ posted for the vanity. but it’s pretty. =) i liked the 12′ view too — hope you were on a ladder and not practicing spiderman tricks (ooh, just imagine how much easier painting would be) =>.
“too busy to ruminate about dating lately” — you make that sound as if you ruminate about it more than you actually do… unless you actually think about it THAT much. do you?!
nice job with the vanity. i love the dark wood color.
wow i can’t wait to see this place
