Shame on me!

I know! I've been a bad blogger. For those of you that still check in here, let me apologize for not keeping you abreast of my life. Actually, except for work, there hasn't been much of a life to write about, so you haven't missed anything.

Actually, I've found myself getting bored with my life lately. How weird is that? Especially since it's baseball season, one of my favorite times to be in Chicago. That means summer is right around the corner. FINALLY!

The scary part is, when I get bored, it ends up costing me money. Many women will go shopping to add some excitement to their lives. Me? I spend money, too, but in much larger quantities.

I've decided to remodel my bathroom (and yes, you heard right, singular! my only bathroom.) This should shake things up a bit, right?

I've contacted Polish Guy, the absolute BEST contractor ever!, and he's agreed to remodel my bathroom at the same time as he's doing the loo of my neighbors (they met him through me...or actually, through my wall when he accidently drilled into their apartment while remodeling my master bedroom.)

Think I'll get a referral discount? It would really help the wallet since my plans include pulling down EVERYTHING! I'm even planning to have PG install a pocket door (to give the world's smallest bathroom a bit more space).

I spent the other night sketching the plans for my very chic, use-every-inch-of-space washroom. It'll be entirely white, and I know that sounds boring, but I'm toying with the idea of a whirlpool tub, a dinner-plate sized shower head and maybe a glass wall enclosure.

So many plans! So many sketches! So many trips to plumbing stores!

But all of that will have to wait a little while because this weekend, the rat-bastard St. Louis Cardinals will be at Wrigley Field to get a whupping from my Cubs!

Game on!
