Seriously, though: what's with the penguins?
in which I sound suspiciously mature
Symphony yesterday was cool. We sat in the “terrace” seats, which are very wack in that you are behind the orchestra and get to look at the conductor's crazy grimacing face the whole time. Guest conductor was this guy Esenbach, who was very expressive and fun to watch, especially during the Beethoven (the 3rd). He […]
whip it good
Did you know that you can't rock the body without the body rock?In fact, it is impossible to rock the body without the body rock.I'm just saying.I just finished a lovely snack of “Wild Berry” skittles and tea. Did you know skittles have fat? I don't really care, I'm not counting fat grams or anything, […]
true tales of adventure!
Title: My Unbelievably Embarassing and Sitcom-Esque MomentOK. Yesterday I got my hand stuck in a vending machine. Only me, folks, only me. And I wasn't trying to steal anything. I had skipped breakfast and by 11 am was absolutely going to starve to death, so I headed down to the vending machines on the second […]
I cheer on debris
Why do I have to work? Hmmm? We bought a new chair, from IKEA, and stuck the unwieldy round Papa-san thing out on the porch until we can decide what to do with it. The Cat hates the new chair and won't sit on it. She walked around looking all grumpy while LT put it […]
caffeinated hair
I'm hungry. I've been thinking a lot about jellybeans. I love jellybeans. As a holiday, Easter has pretty good candy…except for those marshmallow Peeps things, of course. Blah.On the El I saw some woman call some other woman a bitch who had accidentally bumped into her a tiny bit. She said, “Watch where you're going, […]
jawbreaker, jawbreaker
The dentist was mean to me yesterday! Not only were they all like, “You need to floss more” (yeah yeah, doesn't everybody), and I had that really messy hygienist who gets the sandblasting polishing grit all over your face, but the dentist herself looked at my x-rays and said, “Your teeth have shifted a lot […]
vote! vote like a mofo!
I'm leaving for the dentist pretty soon. Yee haw! Actually I don't mind going to the dentist, because I have pretty good teeth (knock on wood) and I like knowing that, after a cleaning, my teeth are as clean as they are ever going to get. So proud of my clean clean teeth.Since I'm leaving […]
this is what passes for entertainment these days
hello all. I'm a big dweebie. I'm supposed to go to the Empty Bottle to rock out at this show tonight, but it's a real late show and I have a wicked headache and I just don't know if it's going to happen. I absolutely cannot call in sick tomorrow, which would be another option […]
power to the people!
There's not a whole lot going on right now so it's [true] story time!If I were inclined to give titles, which I'm not, I would call this one “When Paradigms Collide” or something like that.There used to be this woman who was a vice president or something at the publishing company I worked at. She […]
stuff happens, babies get born, I ramble on
The interview yesterday practically didn't happen. Once HR got through with the candidate, the recruiter called me and said, “Only spend about 5 minutes with this guy…he's kind of a strange bird.”Boy, was she right. I know I'm new at this interviewing thing, but if you can't answer simple questions, look me in the eye, […]
