I didn't ride my bike to work on Wednesday because I had to hold my Dad's hand as he bought a present for my mother in the Apple Store. I was never going to get back from Grand Central in time on a bike. So I used my stationary bike at home that night, and, as a complement to the biking, I did all of fifteen--you are in shock at prowess, I can tell ( Read more... )

I did a ton of stuff this weekend. I volunteered (though not as much as I should have--more on that in a sec), saw a ton of people, played a bunch of card games (in which I was handedly dumped on because I advertised that I believe being ruthless is victory--might have tipped my hand too early there), and got to go peruse Michael's with my former ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday to my best friend, feiran ! Truly, this has been a momentous year, filled with lots of life changes. In your case, all for the better. In mine, less so, 'cause, you know, maybe I, like, miss you a little (sometimes).

This is also a milestone year for she and I as we will have known each other for TEN YEARS at this point. For those of you ( Read more... )

So, I got out of class this morning and went to stand by the bus stop to wait for the uptown shuttle. There was a trio handing out free sodas. By "free," they meant both that it cost nothing and was "free" of chemicals and bad stuff. Stuff that, you know, I kind of depend on in my soda. Caffeine is pretty much the whole reason I drink soda. (That, ( Read more... )

This does not mean the show will get better. This does not mean the show will get better. This does not mean...

But...but...but...Ray Park! And and and Robert Knepper! Robert Knepper, playing Samuel in that clip, is absolutely mesmerizing. If he weren't kinda weird looking, he'd be a huge star. As it is, I've enjoyed him in everything I've ever ( Read more... )

Why do I even bother offering opinions on music trivia when I'm so hopelessly wrong all the time? From now on, I'm going to preference everything I say with, "I'm probably making this up right now, but..."

To the folks I "corrected" about the song "Ebony and Ivory," I was wrong and am a moron and I will not be commenting on shit no more without ( Read more... )

When am I ever going to learn? Stunt casting =/= making the show better, no matter how much I like the actors.

But...but...it's T-Bag, and he'd be awesomely creepy. Maybe he could fix Heroes?

And and and! Ray Park! SERIOUSLY.

No, no, no. You have to control yourself. There is no way this will ever be okay. They brought Daddy Luthor ( Read more... )

On my way to work this morning, there was a pool of dog urine in the middle of the sidewalk. I can accept dogs peeing on every free-standing object (people included) on the street, but do they have to pee right in the middle of it? This was in the middle of a sidewalk that is currently overhung with scaffolding. There were a million supports that ( Read more... )

I had too much goddamned sugar today, that's my excuse.

I just called Time Warner Cable to FREAK OUT all over the poor guy who answered the phone because I mistook my renewing my magazine subscription for an out-of-sync, over-billing on Time Warner's part. (Which has, to my defense, happened before.) I mean I really, realllllllllllllly flipped the ( Read more... )

Good thing I found band-aids when I was cleaning up my desk!

Y'all are so jealous of my talent, let me tell you. As a consequence of not exercising too much then exercising too much in a short span (read: thirty minutes a day, two days in a row; why yes, I am horribly out of shape, how did you know?), I am now experiencing a twinging pain in my ( Read more... )
