My first project was scrapping off an old table on our front porch, sanding it with as much sandpaper as I could find, and then painting it light green. I don't promise pictures any time soon, as I'm not done with it- there's a few other things left to do. Possibly a second coat of paint, and definitely a seal coat or clear coat or some sort of top coat to make it not-so-rough.
Then I might actually finish up a milk-poll that I took among my friends (and others- the response rate on that thing is phenomenal), mapping the price of milk with location so people can see nationally- and possible internationally, though I'm not sure if I want to convert all the international data- how much a gallon of milk costs. Or how much a gallon of milk cost back when I did the poll, way back when.
At some point I will attack my summer reading list ... which mainly consists of books that I've bought but have not read, as well as a few books that people have recommended to me. Currently I'm reading this book about Charles Schulz (Titled Schulz appropriately enough) and it's fascinating because he grew up in St. Paul and worked in Mpls, and then moved his family back to Mpls. What's awesome is I can recognise all the street names.
School starts again on the 15th, and I'm ... not at all excited. I just want this degree and to get school the hell over with.
