Tonight is Ed and Pam’s Halloween party. Perhaps you will attend.
The album ‘Lemon Incest’ by Charlotte Gainsbourg is fuckin’ creepy. However, I highly recommend her more recent release, ‘5:55’. It was produced by a dream-team of musicians, including Air’s Jean-Benoît Dunckel and Nicolas Godin.
I’m not 100% sure about this yet, but I think that I’m starting to feel as though certain the majority of people...

Stared at spreadsheets for at least 8 hours today + Server Crash = Major Headache.
Celebrated my grandmother’s eighty first birthday today. Cousin tricked her into taking a sip of his gin and tonic. Wonderful restaurant, sub-par service.
Zune crashed for the second time. Have to let the battery drain, and then recharge in order to fix.
Decided to skip the debate in order to avoid...
Bringing Families Together
Why smoking, you ask? How else can you get someone 800 gifts at once? Also, I’m getting paid very well by all of the major tobacco companies. With all of this extra money, I will buy as many of these as I can afford.
Nice People...
I’m supposed to be at work today. I took a vacation day. I’m super glad that I did.
Please refer to above image for answers.
P.S. ..photoshop makes me want to hurt myself sometimes.

Feeling better and more collected than I have in a while. Also unbelievably tired. It’s almost the weekend, and I don’t work until next week. Anything going on?
Them's Fightin' Words
You know Winter is just ‘round the corner when people start getting SAD.
I know I’m not really one to talk, but for real.. people are being crazy mercurial as of late. I’ve made some note, via the Internet, of how much I hate what the Internet has done to one-on-one and social-group communication. Before the internets, and your own space, and books with faces, there seemed...
Anatra, Anatra, Oca!
What happened to the ease of childhood. The end of grade school and the beginning of what I can only imagine is supposed to be adulthood seem to have blurred together. I don’t think I took any of it for granted, but who knows. At least I’m happy more often than not. Nowadays, one of my favorite parts of the day is the hour of The Simpsons reruns that air between 5-6 in the...

Protest Now, Or Never
…because we’re all in for a world of shit come October, 2008. Introducing:
“Beginning in October, the Army plans to station an active unit inside the United States for the first time to serve as an on-call federal response in times of emergency..
..The army unit may be called upon to help with civil unrest and crowd control.”
Between this and F.E.M.A, I think...
Leather Rebel
In no way does this post imply that I “fully” endorse Barack Hussein Obama II for presidency. However, since it will either be him or John Sidney McCain III, due to our totally rigged election process, I’ll put my money on OOO BAA MAA.
Plus, anyone that can pull off looking this hip while holding a copy of “The Harvard Law Review” is pretty good in my book.

3 More Days
..of work, and then I’ll be off for twelve effin’ days. Win.
Working out for at least 15 minutes everyday that I work - 30 minutes every day that I’m off. An hour if I’m feeling saucy.
Counting calories, and watching what I eat in general.
Pretty much tree-free, definitely booze-n-tabaccky-(slang sp?)-free.
Health wise, I’m feeling great. I’m getting myself...
The Adventures of Tact, and The Lack Thereof
From now on, when people ask me what’s wrong, I’m going to tell them to Google “lemon party” and press the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button. Because honestly, that is what’s wrong.
I try to be nice, and quiet, and stay out of things, and I end up getting shat on.

I ordered two Kingston 2GB MicroSD Cards from Woot on September 2nd. In about 1 hour, it’s going to be September 15th and my 2 MicroSD cards have yet to be delivered. So, Woot if you’re listening (and you’re not), please stop using the Smart Post method. There’s no good reason to send my MicroSD cards to 14 different states before they get delivered 2+ weeks later. ...

ROUND ONE. FIGHT!
A lot of the time, you girls don’t make any sense to us guys. Some of us deal with it like this. The rest, well.. the rest of us are on the Internet whining about it.
Also, the iTunes Genius playlist: B+. iPhone 2.1 firmware update: A+.
WHAT ARE YOU MADE OF?
Who knew that Mario and Zelda (it was actually Link you were eating) were made up of nearly the same ingredients. Technically, Mario’s got a 1-UP on Zelda (LINK), since he was naturally flavored.

Last day of work for the week is tomorrow. What’s going on this weekend?
Pop Quiz
Without using any of the precious resources that the Internet has to offer, can anyone tell me who this man is?
Some people make me question life. Some people are pretty fucked in the head.

I'm Not Sure...
…why I’m making all these changes. I kind of like it. I hope you do as well.
I don’t really have an excuse as to why I haven’t been updating. I guess I’ve been kinda unmotivated. Plus, I finally purchased every season except for the first one of The X-Files, so watching that has taken up a lot of time. As I stated in my last post, I decided to get rid of my...
Pika!

I really don’t want to work this weekend. And, since the Olympics are in full effect, there is going to be more work for me. Also, I can’t believe it’s already August. Where did this year go?
This week has been interesting. I’ll recap either tomorrow or Sunday.

People Are Strange
It took me forever to get the shot you see above. Pretzels is camera shy, just like me. Fortunately Pretzels and I have an understanding. You see, he knows that girls like cats, and that means that the owner of a cat must also be liked. This is especially true with a cat as handsome as Pretzels. At this point in the paragraph I’m beginning to bug myself out a little bit.
You know...
Slobodan Milošević
What an amazing name. He has nothing to do with this post.
I’ve been really lazy this week, at least about updating here. I had promised to stop writing down everything dramatic going on in my life, and I’ve been trying to keep it that way. Last Saturday, I was out enjoying my night with some friends when a suspicion of mine was confirmed consequently. I’ll spare the...

I’m even more sick than I was yesterday, or the day before. I’ve been taking NyQuil each day, as recommended. I’ve been at work every day that I’ve been sick at 5 A.M. I’m fucking done. I almost wish that I was in the middle of nowhere, having to fend for myself. At least then my head wouldn’t be filled with so much other useless bullshit.
Choking...
Big N, Little Y, Giant F'ing Q
I’m definitely sick. I’m also definitely loaded up on NyQuil.
Anyhow, I’m too loopy to type right now. Check out the sweet cereal box Joker toy that was hangin’ out at work today. He’s such a pretty lady.
DAY AFTER EDIT: Yikes… so much for trying to use Photoshop while twisted on Nyquil. Sorry folks.
Until You Run Out of Cake
Nick Larsen created this amazing Lego interpretation of the game Portal. **SPOILER** If you haven’t played the game, I suggest not watching.
I spent the whole afternoon watching the X-Files on DVD. It’s a shame that I’ll probably have to wait until some time next week to go see the new movie.
Also, if you haven’t listened to Beck’s newest album, Modern Guilt, you...

I went to Brooklyn and saw The Field Recordings last night. The band did a fantastic job at kicking ass. It was also nice to see more old faces. Plus, I got the chance to almost kill myself by falling...
Feering Derightfur
How’s everyone doing? I’m assuming that most of you spent at least two and half hours of your weekend watching The Dark Knight. For anyone that hasn’t seen it, you definitely should. The movie is incredibly “theatre worthy”, and Heath “Why So Sleepy” Ledger does actually live up to the hype that’s been generated. Hell, the movie brought in...
It's Your Boy!
Is the term LOLocaust totally inappropriate. Maybe..
YCDTOTV
Yup, it’s another Dark Knight post.. this time with details.
So I’ve talked to a lot of people, and they all agree that a Saturday July 19th showing is “what’s up”. There had been some talk about trying to see the IMAX version of the movie, which I’m still down to do, there’s just one catch. The only IMAX theatre playing the movie is in Machester,...
The Fairest of Them All
Pineapple Express looks like it’ll be pretty good. Plus, the song in the background is “Paper Planes” by Mathangi Arulpragasam, aka M.I.A. Also, I had no idea that the second X-Files movie was coming out in two weeks. Holy shit. Dark Knight and X-Files back to back?! Win.
Where was everyone last night? We continued our celebration of independence for the second...
Aliens! Are You F'ing Kidding?
Has anyone else heard of the D.I.Y toy ‘Munny’? They start off as a solid color, and then you can paint and accessorize them.
Only 10 bucks for the mini one (pictured above). I want one.
Babies Everywhere
No explanation needed. Just watch, and enjoy.
Sorry about the lack of posts this week. My new phone has been getting all the attention.
Dairy Coma
While a friend of ours was digging underneath a certain someones car seats today, a Playboy from the 1960’s was uncovered. Situations like this always turn up some fantastic results. However, I could never have expected to see the gem pictured above. It still kind of amazes me that only four or five decades ago sexism, racism, or any other form of bigotry was not only acceptable, but...
Why So Sleepy?
This is just a reminder that The Dark Knight will be in theatres starting Friday, July 18th. I will be working until Saturday the 19th, and I hope that some of you would be willing to wait until at least then to see it with me.
Sorry about the Heath Ledger pot shot in the title of this post, I couldn’t resist. Patrick Verona makes me hot in the pants. Wait, no.
Indie Pen Dance
OMG! Fourth of July! Let’s blow our hands clean off. Also, I don’t even like to drink, but it still doesn’t make any sense to me as to why Connecticut liquor stores are closed on holidays.
So yea, they let me leave work at 1:30 today, which ruled. With this extra free time, the Kernal and I decided to do something productive: Beat the “B Quest” in The Legend of...
Where Blue Balls Are Okay
Let’s go mini-golfing. A lot of people have been talking about it lately, so why not do it. If we stay local, there are two choices:
Golf Quest - Pros: Also batting cages, and a driving range. Is closer for almost everyone to get to. Cons: Pretty plain and simple mini-golf (no fancy obstacles)
Belmonts - Pros: Has a fancy mini-golf course, with windmills, bears, and spitting clowns. ...
Will Work For Change
Actually, I probably wouldn’t. Unless of course… well, I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.
Really though, I’m at work and I’m bored. I was tired of trying to make Disqus work well with my Tumblr layout, so I made my Tumblr layout play nice with Disqus. Hope you all enjoy the (probably temporary) color change, and you’d better, since you can finally...

Pretty soon, this bad boy is gonna be flipped on.
And we’re all going to die.
I started this week with a huge smile on my face, love in my heart, and pink clouds swirling around my skull, which projected images of drugged out unicorns and wombats. Needless to say, it was pretty sweet. By Thursday however, I had reached a state of degradation. I put myself through hell and back over...
Rocks and Rolls
Introspective. Does writing any of this down make me feel any better? I’m still trying to figure that out. Bare with me.
I avoid doctors and medication like the plague. I tend to feel like my body, with a little determination from me, will gradually learn how to defend itself against illness, or disorders. At least I’ll be more prepared if there’s a next time.
I saw...
Intertropical Convergence Zone
“After years of recording in relative seclusion in the hills of Los Angeles, Ariel Pink (the first non-Animal Collective member on the Paw Tracks roster) made his official Paw Tracks debut with ‘The Doldrums’. Recording at home with a guitar, bass, keyboard, and 8-track (the drum sounds were created with his mouth).”
Ahh, strange. Doctor Numbtooth’s intimate face...
