Poor Granny spent the weekend, including her birthday, in the hospital with a fever.  What a shitty way to spend your birthday.  Although she was in good company.  While we were visiting, she and her little old lady roomie bonded by trashing the nursing staff.

The Eat Your Face in Effigy challenge has been stymied by the hobby shop.  They did not ( Read more... )

Boyfriend and I spent last night glued to the television watching Mike and Olly on the Travel Channel.  These two Brits were in West Papua trying to integrate with the highly isolated Kombai tribe.  It was 100% undiluted awesome.

First of all, I'm vaguely (emphasis on vague) familiar with Papua New Guinea.  I had an anthro professor who spent ( Read more... )

I'm feeling very blank slate today.

Well this weekend had 100% less SUCK then the last, so good times.  Saturday I spent copious amounts of time napping, taking a break in between to check out the Pagan Pride Day at Cooper River Park.  It was quite anti-climactic.  There were only a dozen or so booths and all of them were selling silver jewelry, patchouli soap, and pointy hats made ( Read more... )

My trip to the MOMA last week was a bit of a let down in terms of the exhibition.  The prefab housing was beat to hell and not the sturdy, brilliant mecca of modern design that I had envisioned.  That'll teach me to have expectations.  I did enjoy the photography exhibit, which was just a lovely collection of random shots over the past 150 years.  ( Read more... )

Dreamt of the same GKRs I see running around Philly.  Not cool man, not cool.

Well it was a domestic abuse weekend full of gnashing teeth and dick facedness.  I don't think I'll be able to show my face in the Target for the next year (at least).  God I really, really despise fighting in public.   Happily every argument was resolved relatively ( Read more... )

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh*hrk*.  That's the sound of my brain compressing after a relaxing weekend doing jack shiz in NY.  Friday I took the train all the way up New Jersey, through the woods and marshes and, well, industrial parks.  It rained the entire day, so everything was green and glistening.  Or brown and extremely muddy.  We are a swamp state, after ( Read more... )
