  • Jessica, I blame you.

    , ,

    It was recommended to me a few times, primarily by Jessica, that I maybe want to consider checking out a political satire group, Capitol Steps. So out of random curiosity, I downloaded a few of their albums. And have been listening ever since. Mostly, they do the US … Read the rest

  • I keep way too much crap around for way too long.

    , ,

    Of course, that realization didn’t quite hit me until Sunday, when I finally decided I’d stop procrastinating and go through some of what I pulled off my laptop’s HD last June before I whiped it and installed Linux. And the things I managed to avoid deleting since I bought the … Read the rest

  • I’m thinking of declaring yesterday “Obvious News Day”.

    ,

    And, because you can probably figure out why on your own without elabouration, list format. Because it’s good. Sarah Palin joins up with Fox News? Who didn’t see that one coming from a mile away? Really. Simon Cowell to say goodbye after this season of Idol? I’m surprised he lasted … Read the rest

  • I always said homework was bad for me.

    ,

    For the longest time while I was in school, highschool primarily, I’d always try to find something resembling an excuse to put off, avoid doing, or just plain forget about ever doing anything that vaguely resembled homework. Sure, eventually, most of it would get done anyway–not without the insistance of … Read the rest

  • Sometimes, freezing your ass off has its benefits.

    Today turned out to be emergency “pick up crap I forgot I didn’t have” day. Convenient enough, seeing as it picked today to be several varieties of cold. Still, the trip wasn’t a total loss. I did manage to survive the insane crowds that apparently decided today was also the … Read the rest

  • Sadly, someone out there probably just bought this email.

    ,

    Equally sadly, whoever created it is probably hoping some stupid sysadmin will get a hold of it and actually believe it. Surprisingly, there are sysadmins out there who’re that stupid–I did tech support for a few of them. From: spam@email.address.removed Date: Sat 02/01/2010 10:01 AM To: my@email.address.removed Subject: WEBMAIL UPGRADE… Read the rest

  • New years day, done our way.

    , , , ,

    And in this case, our way involves all manner of creative thinggies that started last night. We took off from here at about 5 or so, and I proceeded to complete my own personal challenge to stay up since the morning before until past the official welcoming of the new … Read the rest

  • Warm it up, Chris.

    During last night’s bit of pre-festivities festivities, we got to talking about music we ended up growing up with–conveniently, while listening to a small subset of the music we grew up with. Somehow we ended up on the topic of the old rap band “Chris Cross”. And I’ve had one … Read the rest

  • My ringtone is now an overplayed song.

    ,

    I’ve been known to keep a very random, very scattered, and very eclectic collection of music around, both on my local machine and/or various attached hard drives, as well as within my Jango playlist. I like to think my selection of ringtones reflects that. I go from the commonly played … Read the rest

  • Snap your fingers and it’s Sunday.

    , , , ,

    As expected, Jessica’s graduation went off absolutely with no problem whatsoever. She got her diploma, we got a picture, and everyone got to relax a little afterwards with something alcoholic and good conversation. We hit a local bar after the cerimony for a drink or two, and to do some … Read the rest
