I don't know what's going on with my poor keyboard but it's been doubling up my "M"s since yesterday. The "K" is being kind of wonky, too. Bah. I can't wait until I get my year-end bonus so I can replace my poor tired laptop. Anyway, just ignore any errant or duplicated Ms and Ks you might see ( Read more... )

Epic, dance-tastic, fun. Pics when I get home from work. I need a new camera. This no-settings, no-screen business is getting old ( Read more... )

I had a FANTASTIC weekend, despite the fact that I spent most of the daylight hours either hungover or sleepy. calmkelp's going-away party was a ton of fun, even if totally bittersweet because it means he's leaving. I got to see a few people I hadn't seen in years and just generally really enjoyed myself. I, of course, completely regretted the level of ( Read more... )

I got off work early on Friday, so I had time to do laundry and clean my house before Game Night. I got to Safehouse a little early to give Luke a haircut; I'm glad we planned this and glad I picked up a shaper because it turns out Peter desperately needed a haircut, too. I feel like I did my good deeds for the day there. The electric shock game ( Read more... )

The Last Picnic in the Park for Summer 2k8 was awesome and awesomely ghetto. No one brought disposable dishes or cutlery. The promised guacamole had glass shards stirred in and was therefore absent. The company was grand, the wine was chilled, and we got chased out of Cal Anderson by the cops ( Read more... )

I saw Bad Religion for the first time on June 24, 1995 at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. I went with my mom and dad and my bestie Caitlynn. I was twelve. Pearl Jam was the headliner. My parents didn't realize that Bad Religion would make the crowd so much more thrashy than the headliner and let us go into the midst of it all during their set. ( Read more... )

So I'm still going a thousand miles an hour now that I'm home but it's been awesome. Trivia was oddly mellow on Tuesday night; I think I was the only shouty fucker there but I'm mostly okay with that. We got, like, 5th place but I know I was a lot more interested in seeing all the people I totally missed than putting any effort whatsoever into ( Read more... )

This weekend was especially weekend-y! On Friday night, justkatehere and I went to Alderwood and spent a few hours trying on silly hats and sunglasses and stuff. It was super fun! When we got back to the city, we went to Clever Dunne's for a drink. It turns out Friday nights there are super weird. We didn't recognize anyone but the bartenders. We stayed for ( Read more... )

After work Friday I went over to Joe's to meet Patty, Aaron, and Mike and watch a movie before we went to watch more movies! We kind of overestimated how long it would take to walk to the bus stop to get up the hill; we had like seven minutes to kill once we got there so we ran into Vi Bacchus and made the waiter bring us giant shots of shochu, ( Read more... )

This week has been great so far, even if like 50% of my waking minutes are consumed somehow by Burning Man prep. I'm stressed about all the stuff I still need to acquire but this weekend's shopping trip should help. After that, my only major obstacle will be finding a way to get my sister's tent up to Seattle ( Read more... )
