I loved that homemade bed

 

[kickhead23]

Nope.

Let that man show off his work. I for one am looking forward to it if that bed is any indication of whats to come.

Flourish, young man, flourish.

Either $7k or $8k. I like them, but doesn't mean everyone will.  When I sleep other places it usually feels horrible now.  It's really up to individual on whether it's worth it. For me, I'd say yes. Beds are like shoes to me. If you sleep like crap, it affects your entire life. If you walk around in crappy shoes, it's going to hurt. If if that's the case, you probably should invest a few more bucks for a better quality of life. Just my own opinion and others may completely disagree.

Ive been looking into a tempur pedic, Ive heard it sucks for sex though...any truth to it?

Finally got my tv programming today! Had to go the last week w/o tv so was running bath n forth between here and the other spot just to watch shows and movies. Ended up getting Uverse since I couldn't get directv again because of my trees blocking the southern sky. I ave it at the other place still though. I just couldnt subject myself to the terrible CS when dealing with comcast. Feels good to finally have tv. I bought 4 of them and all have been in the box for the last week. Had two of them put up yesterday, one in the kitchen nook and the other in my bedroom.

Been at my apt for 2 years come November and still have a ways to go. Actually made a spreadsheet of everything I want in it but kind of had an epiphany. So much crap on there is materialistic as hell. That money could go towards savings, a trip, anything. Do I really need that area rug or shelving unit? What about that accent table and side chairs? Idk...

It doesn't feel like "home" just yet and that's what's driving me to keep adding to it. I'm also hoping to move to a nicer area in the hear future so I'm trying to account for that as well. In the meantime, aiming to finish up my "office" in the next few months. Will post pics afterwards

I feel you on that...I didn't go as far as the spreadsheet but when I take mental invetory, I def say to myself to chilllll.. I could be doin other stuff with tho money.  I think you have to find that balance of not goin overboard but still making the spot your own.  It sounds like you like nice **** so its probably a pocket hit when you find that rug, coffee table or art piece...Cant do it overnight, plus for me makes it allows me appreciate the process more,

I was joking since he was rambling.

Maaaaan...

So pissed at my apartment.

When I moved in, they charged a premium for the high floors (17+)

Then.. 3 months in.. I found that they cut the premium...

Moving to the 20/25 floor in October.



And I'm staying on the corner of the building...

 

[venom lyrix]

Did you end up in Downtown Dallas?

I don't have a formal bar at all, but my dad and I built in a "bar table" type thing to a dining area in my apartment. I went cheap though and got a piece of laminate wood from Home Depot (I don't plan on being in my apartment for more than 12-15 months). I'm going home tomorrow, and I'll actually be home for a few weeks. I need to post some pics once I get the place cleaned up towards the end of this weekend (my roommate and I should both be "home" at the place for a while now). It's been hard as hell to clean up knowing we'd both be gone the next week for work and/or vacation.

Downtown Dallas.

Best living decision ever.

Haven't driven my car in the past 3 weeks except to the cleaners and grocery store.

That's a good area for a single guy in his 20s. I'm just north of there on the edge of Uptown/Cityplace. My best friend lived in Downtown last summer. So nice to be able to walk everywhere down there, but parking can be a ***** for visitors.

[21 world b free 21]

so this is the sectional I got my my apartment.

My walls are going to be a light grey. There will be a nice 2 tone wood coffee table in front of the couch.

What kind of area rug should I get for it - color - etc.

best places to get area rugs that arent a fortune?

Where did you get this sectional from? I'm looking for something similar...Looks comfortable...how is it?

This is the rug I have and think it would work with http://www.flor.com/modern-mix-indigo.html

 

[stork]

Get a DOCSIS modem.

I hate the $3-4 rental fee (TWC), but i'm relocating somewhere new in the next month

very comfortable - Raymour and Flanigan - it's called the Metropolis

that rug prob wouldn't work unless u had shades in some sort of blue and a blue wall in the living room. But it's just too dark together I think

 

[waukeganwill]

Bros, need a little help.

I havent upgraded my life to the wireless surround sound system just yet so Im still dealing with cords.
I have two cords running from the speakers by the bed, underneath the bed, and under the stand holding the tv.

Any suggestions for cable covers or ways to make this more discreet?? Ive looked at some cable covers online n they

look pretty large/bulky. Wondering if anybody knows of anything. And also what wireless systems yall recommend?

[slicknick951]

Where are the wires going?

I doubt you will find what you are looking for going across the room like that

 

[waukeganwill]

Theyre going from the rear speakers to the back of the system unit. I just need somethin to cover the exposed part so myself/ppl/dog dont trip on em.

I really jus need to grow up n go wireless smh

 

[kal-el-8]

Why not just get a bigger rug?

 

[freeze]

either a bigger rug or maybe look into replace wires, assuming they are the standard coaxials at which point you can just run them around the perimeter of the room, maybe even staple them down and out of sight. Just a thought.
