A few years ago, I came down the stairs in the house on Arsenal and on the last step my ankle gave out. The doctors said I'd sprained it as badly as I could have without breaking anything. I went into shock, my lower leg turned technicolor purple, and I was limping for weeks. Yesterday, I tripped going up a flight of stairs with the vacuum cleaner in my hands and kicked the vertical portion of the stairs with my big toe and fractured it. Both times, it was my left foot. I think I might be cursed -- no one has my kind of luck and lives.
Just thought I'd throw up a quick "I'm alive!" note and update folks on a few things.
First, love the new house. We're still in Wilmington, but further north in a MUCH nicer neighborhood and in a much roomier house. We have a roommate, Brian, whom I have known for years. I'll post pics after the housewarming next weekend, when the house *will* be finished.
I set up a CafePress site for a few things Rob and I have always said would make great bumper stickers. Visit cafepress.com/imeister and have a look. It's only two items right now, but I'll be adding more as I think of things.
The restaurant review blog is going well. I've done a dozen places now, with more to write. I'm getting comments more and more frequently, and site stats are rising steadily. I even had a friend ask for one of my cards so he could pass it on to a friend who gets paid to do reviews in hopes that I might join their ranks. Getting paid to eat out? Hells yeah, I say!
