Seeing Hulk Hogan on TV thru my childhood, then early adulthood in the 80s and 90s, I was always rooting against him in the show, I always liked the heels more. I learned to appreciate the art and behind the scenes more as I got older, and understood his impact much more. I got to meet him randomly at one of the radio stations i worked for, and lived close enough to run home and get my replica championship, and he was so enthused to meet a wrestling fan, and offered to autograph it when he saw me walk in with it. I didn't really know him, but in that brief encounter he was fun to spend a moment with and talk about his SummerSlam match with Randy Orton. RIP.

New bamboo floors (pretty good for resisting any spills, but its always been pretty dry in there son not worried about switching from tile), new utility sink, new top for the desk/cabinet, and fresh paint all around. May put the double doors back up but for now trying a decorative curtain.

Floor planks were left over from redoing the whole first floor, sink was kinda pricey but wanted to have it look nice in there. Paint and baseboards for a couple hundred bucks, and (for now) sticking with my jagged Dr. Seuss style washer/dryer pedestal that I’m proud of building myself. The water valves were very corroded and stuck in place so I had to have a plumber replace those, the only oddball unforeseen expense, but now we can shut them off like normal when needed at least.

Was very sweaty working in there but very fun and was pretty stress-free.

She loves this ball. One of the few toys she hasn’t been able to destroy yet.

I've been on Facebook for 16 years.

This used to all be farmland.

Never seen cicadas like this. Weird, weird.
