I was briefly at my next-door neighbor&#8217;s housewarming party, I went to Koi Fusion&#8217;s 2nd anniversary\/Scion event were I scored a free bulgolgi burrito and some Scion swag, and I went to watch the UFC fight where GSP proved he was a dominant, cautious, and not altogether entertaining fighter. Plus I ran around the house trying to figure out what the hell was beeping like a fire alarm with it&#8217;s battery dying. It was a fire alarm with it&#8217;s battery dying, that my contractor had taken down and hidden in the basement.<\/p>\n<p>I would have done nothing strenuous today, but I finally bought a tool cabinet at Harbor Freight. The display model worked a lot better (the drawer bearings are awful) and it was heavy. Plus I had to take it out of the packing to cram it into my Civic. I&#8217;ve asked my friend to drive his pickup into the city so we could go get it and every time I asked, he drove in his Smart car.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and I guess I cut my own hair Saturday as well. Heck, I&#8217;m not getting any dates paying real money for haircuts. I may as well do it myself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday was supposed to be one of the rainiest days I&#8217;ve seen in Portland.
