Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

Life Is So Exciting In the Burbs
@HOME. So it's sad to say, but still nothing exciting to write about. If it wasn't for Darin's constant badgering about me not posting anything for days I would probably be sitting here staring at the screen wondering what to write about. I don't think that that girl realizes that the rest of our lives can't possibly be as exciting as her's. She who travels all the way to Flagstaff for band camp but instead hangs out with the over 80 knitting club while still managing to swing the hook up with one their grandsons. Geez Blanche, I mean Darin, you have the life I tell ya :-P
So anywho, life is just so exciting in the burbs these days. Justin and I decided that our measly smalls desks we had in our office weren't big enough for all the junk mail we accumulate during the week, so therefore we had to take our monthly trip to Ikea to look around. After having a fabulous meal of the Ikea Chef's special balls, oops I mean meatballs, we headed off for a grueling few hours of Ikea shopping. Long story short, we bought some new office-like desks, packed up the car and headed back to our surburban paradise.
Once unloading the 25 plus boxes that composed every little piece of the unassembled desks we decided what the hell, lets put them together. Why they give you a stupid scrukignugen tool in every box I'll just never understand. But alas ... photos from the wonderous event.
BEFORE: Justin starting to put the million pieces together.
AFTER: Tada ... Wow, so much room in the office now!
So yes, after much time and effort, about 5 hours worth, we finally had our new desks assembled and the office put back together. I work from home a great deal, so this will give us both a lot more room to work.
I've found that Berg now uses the space between the desks as his personal tunnel to hang out. Occassionaly while I'm working he will pop his head up to make sure I'm still awake. I actually think this picture is kind of ... well, yeah um ... it's not what you think you sickos!
Well that's about as interesting as it gets out here in the burbs for now. This weekend is Justin's birthday and my friends are also getting into town on Wednesday to hang out and party for the rest of the week until Sunday. Shane is flying in from San Francisco, and Philip, who just moved back to Los Angeles from San Fran is driving out as well. It should be a fun filled weekend which ensures that I should have some more interesting things to write about later this week. Cheers!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JUSTIN!! All the way from Canada....and you better tell him I said so too Rich! LOL
Love the new desks, very schwanky! And oh Berg looks soooo cute..... I have to say, just hearing from you at all is nice Rich, just pop in to say howdy now and then so we know all is well. Hope you're enjoying your summer! (I'm not, we're doing home repairs/renovations ~ BLECH!) :)
