( Guitar Hero 3 demo is out on X-Box Live! )

I finally got around to looking up my Wii friend code. It is 4701 0268 3889 6273. Use it wisely, fellow Nintendo geeks, and please let me know what yours are. My Miis must travel! Also, my Zelda DS code is 5369 8367 8220; look me up if you want to play some battle mode ( Read more... )

The last two weeks have been tending towards insanely busy. Last weekend, there was a little outing to see They Might Be Giants at the Iron Horse, which included myself, darwins_fox, tawny_vixen, lisaf, zole and pleatedseams, lanome, and a few other non-LJ types. I also met tardis60/Kassi while waiting in line-- I went over and waited obsessive-fan-early so we could all sit together. Kassi was really ( Read more... )

Where was I? Lemme 'splain. ...is too much. Lemme sum up.

-The Return of the Week of Indie Whoredom, Part 2: Episode V: The Furnaces Strike Back
There was an opening band named Sue (spelling confirmed when I met the lead singer, who bears an eerie resemblance to jpaternostro a few days later in Faces), who were quite good when they were making, y'know, ( Read more... )

My ears are STILL ringing from last night's Ted Leo & Pharmacists extravaganza, and I don't care because that man and his band can have their way with my auditory nerves any time they like.

Last night began with dinner with fr0bozz; rather hurriedly, alas, because I was a friggin' doofus and realized around the time we got to the restaurant that I'd ( Read more... )

Godfrackin' cable modem is unhappy, forcing me to write things at home and post them when I get to work (email and IM work fine, but web is spotty at best, making me think it's some sort of DNS issue, which means I'm not sure whom I need to kill). Grr.

First off, a very happy birthday to fr0bozz and synapsepi. Wishes of love and peace to you both ( Read more... )

So, Thursday night darwins_fox and I went out to dinner, and split a bottle of wine. As we are both complete lightweights, we were both buzzed enough by the end of dinner that we of *course* had to have dessert (at least we split one, and it was very very tasty). And we were still buzzed enough after dessert that we wandered around downtown Amherst, and ( Read more... )

I love long weekends. I love taking random vacation days to make them longer even more.

The only unfortunate thing about this weekend was the fact that darwins_fox spent most of it fighting off a cold. I managed to hold it off with a dazzling combination of dayquil and sloth. (The vice, not the mammal.) I felt rather guilty at leaving her behind on my ( Read more... )

...RIPPER, that is!

This has been an ehhhhhhhhhxcellent weekend. Yesterday, *takes deep breath* de_wolf, lisaf, tawny_vixen, fr0bozz, dreda and her lovely SO whose username escapes me, my ex-roomie and ex-GF from the distant past Lori and her BF Chris joined me and darwins_fox for a birthday celebration par excellence. There was drinking, there was the annual non-Euclidean croquet of ( Read more... )
