			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Once again, been a couple of weeks.</p>
<p>The house is coming together nicely, we have mostly everything done.  We are just trimming up the the house with the old refinished trim.  It&#8217;s looking like home again.  There are people down the street working on a house, seems that today they have finished their drywall.. which means they don&#8217;t have much left for them to do.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-67" title="PennyArcade" src="http://www.dave-bates.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/windowslivewriterpennyarcadeadventuresgoesgold-d4f6image-2-150x150.png" alt="PennyArcade" width="150" height="150" /></p>
<p>Downloaded a new game on XBLA, been playing it for a little while, seems to be a pretty neat game..  I hope to actually finish it and have lots of fun with it.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been, also, working with <a href="http://live.pirillo.com" target="_blank">Chris Pirillo</a>, but due to work and theatre have had to put that on hold for a couple of weeks as that gets sorted out.</p>
<p>Speaking of Theatre, TCR has announced their <a href="http://theatrecr.org/spotlight.php?event=2009-10_season" target="_blank">new season</a>.. Looks to be a promising season, as well they are planning to be BACK in the theatre building by this time next year.  I&#8217;m am really looking forward to getting back in there.</p>
<p>We are currently working on hair, it&#8217;s been loads of fun and the cast is awesome..<br />
Here are some spy shots (shhh.. don&#8217;t tell anyone):<br />

<p>Coming up in the next few weeks, I have a knitting project I&#8217;m trying to get done, (two actually) get to meet up with some friends, get to do some new programming in rails.. It hopes to be a interesting May and I hope to blog more often as things happen.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been yet another two weeks and some more things have happened..</p>
<p>First of all, let&#8217;s talk about the house.  We got all our kitchen cabinets in and set, they look great (sorry no pictures today).  We are supposed to have the counter tops in and mounted this weekend.  After that, we have just a few rooms left to put trim up in.  The original woodwork trim that we pulled out, cleaned, sanded and stained are going back up.  We have the hallway, Jake&#8217;s room and some of the dinning room done.  We need to finish up Jennifer&#8217;s room, the living and dinning room.  It&#8217;s looking much better.</p>
<p>Also last week I started to work at <a href="http://theatrecr.org" target="_blank">TCR</a> again.  We are doing the play <a href="http://theatrecr.org/season.php?show=fences" target="_blank">Fences</a>.  It&#8217;s a pretty powerful show, it&#8217;s actually pretty good.  As always there are little things that happen that make you roll your eyes.. and then we have the tech problems.  Last weeks tech problems were fun.  We had a small power surge during our opening night and made the whole of the stage lights flicker on and off (like someone flipping a switch on and off) for the whole of the second act.  On Sunday we had sound issues, the computer that runs the sound was having memory  issues and was not found until 10 minutes before house opened.  We did get that fixed up and working just fine however.</p>
<p>Coming up next is the closing of Fences this weekend (the 29th) and hopefully I&#8217;ll be able to get some good quality time in Azeroth, with LittleSister and in Paradise City.. Yes that&#8217;s right, I&#8217;m sure some of you got the references out there.</p>
<p>As well, I&#8217;ve started a new <a href="http://knitblog.dave-bates.net" target="_blank"> knitting blog</a> and a <a href="http://knitblog.dave-bates.net/2009/03/25/new-project-dr-horrible-wristers/" target="_blank">new project</a> as well.  I&#8217;m close to half done with it.  This is something, currently, I&#8217;m working on while waiting for things to happen backstage (between scene changes, and during intermission).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been a weird couple of weeks.. What can I say.. We had our drywall up about 10 days ago, however for some reason the guy that is supposed to come in and finish the walls is &#8220;busy&#8221;.  Well, around here, everyone is busy.. just get it done.  Sometimes I have a hard time having sympathy for people that lack the ability to plan well.</p>
<div id="attachment_30" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-30" title="ourvan" src="http://www.dave-bates.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/ourvan-300x154.jpg" alt="ourvan" width="300" height="154" /><p class="wp-caption-text">The new van</p></div>
<p>Work is going through growing pains again, but it&#8217;s like that at all places, all in all work is good..</p>
<p>We got a new car, pretty awesome there.. We got a 2004 Toyota Sienna that&#8217;s pretty much fully loaded.. I&#8217;m missing my remote car starter, and unfortunately I can&#8217;t get one installed in the van until the end of February.  Going to have to think about that one.  As well, our flooring should be here this week.  Our kitchen cabinets have been &#8220;Drawn out&#8221;, just waiting from the blessing from the wife.  The rebuild is going slow.. but it&#8217;s going..</p>
<div id="attachment_29" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-29" title="kitchen-arjay" src="http://www.dave-bates.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/kitchen-arjay-300x236.jpg" alt="kitchen-arjay" width="300" height="236" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Kitchen CAD Drawing</p></div>
<p>We&#8217;ve picked up paint for most of the downstairs, got to get the rest this week..</p>
<p>Once we get most of the floors in, we will start to move in furniture (some of which is on the way, others in the garage), appliances and such like that.</p>
<p>We are getting close folks!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s been a good week, odd, but good.</p>
