That's a big ass cat!!
I was looking at getting that contemporary track lighting for my kitchen as well but I'm worried about how much light those bulbs actually put out. I'm replacing a flourescent fixture with 4 long bulbs, so there is a LOT of light now, don't wanna lose too much.
What are your over-cabinet and under-cabinet lights? LED (under) and halogen (above)?

there's about 4 different sources of light in the kitchen that make up for the lack of fluorescent bulbs. but you raise a valid point

correct. the LED is actually from pod-like fixtures.

I don't know how feel about the playstation 2 sign... not old enough to be vintage... not new enough to be "awesome."

Cool place though dude. I'm crashing at your place if I ever get stuck in San Antonio.

That actually helps me out tons. I do like the overcabinet lights for effect, but even more if they actually add to lighting the space. Gracias!
