Well, since I just paid to re-up my account, I thought I might as well try to write something. Did you ever get to the point where so much is on your mind, all the time, that it's impossible to find an angle to actually say anything ( Read more... )

OK it's only been a few days! I remember back when I posted to my LJ every day. That was back in the olden times when I had free time and energy. Right now I'm stealing some - a slow-ish work morning, and the morning circadian upswing. It won't last. There's work to be done and I ought to do it.

Anyway... It's definitive: Pushing Daisies has not ( Read more... )

Estelle Getty R.I.P. Two years younger than Bea Arthur. It's never seemed fair to me.

A superb collection of Mike Tyson quotes. I want to start a country-folk band and all the songs lyrics will be Mike Tyson quotes. I just kinda love Mike Tyson; he's both a horrible, vicious monster and a wretched, sad monster at the same time. Like Frankenstein' ( Read more... )

Happy Valentine's Day. It is a saint's day, after all, so think about martyrdom as you eat your candy and sniff your delivered flowers, and make time to have tender loving sexytime with your boo. I myself am going to get a pizza, a six-pack of something strong, get drunxored, pay bills, call my brother, and watch Lost. This is probably why I am ( Read more... )

A massive Star Trek email thread is blowin' up at work right now. (I had no idea my co-workers were such slavering, devoted, opinionated Treksters. I love my job!) Say what you will about the JJ Abrams project - it's bringing the Trekkies out of the woodwork. My pal Jeff Powers is going to go to StarCon this spring (one of the two the massive Trek ( Read more... )

- I find that for sinuses ravaged by dry air both indoors and out, breathing through a damp paper towel placed over the face works a treat. Add a few drops of lavender oil, if you've got some. Ghetto humidifier ( Read more... )

Friday's company bowling party/drunk up was very fun. I hurt my wrist, but it seems to be largely fine now - except every once in a while, when I get a twinge. I would really hate it if it's really hurt and will hurt forever, but hopefully by then they'll have really good voice-recognition software, so I can dictate the stuff I write ( Read more... )

The Verve are getting back together (without Simon Tong ( Read more... )
