Debate Commentary

Bush really threw off the drinking game when he said “September 10th.”

Dream Analysis

I had a dream last night and I wasn’t even in it. It was about two guys. I was just watching it like a movie. What does this mean?

Lemonade Memories

On my walk home my heart burst at the sight of three kids selling lemonade at a lemonade stand. I bought a cup. It reminded me of the time when I was a kid selling lemonade at a lemonade stand outside my house and my neighbor Matt, who was two years older and the object of my undying long-held schoolgirl crush all the way through high school, made fun of me because my sign said “While supplies last!” Bastard.

Dirty Hair Day

Everyone’s complimenting me on my hair today, cuz I have it up which is something I never do. Maybe I should do it more. But the truth is that it’s only up when it’s dirty. It’s the only way to get an extra day out of this hair on those odd days when I’m so absorbed in something like arguing with my bank over a misplaced direct deposit before work that by the time I’m done I have no time to shower. So if you see me with my hair up, you should ask me what the story is on why I was unable to shower that morning. After complimenting me, of course.

Evil Empire

There is something sinister about a software program that freezes your computer every time you try to close it. Let me OUT!

My Plans for the Evening:

Get my shit together.

Korea Update

Serpico, who you may recall suddenly moved to Korea last month, says he is always the tallest person on the subway there. Not a good place to be undercover. But in the more touristy districts there are plenty of tall American sailors around making him feel less conspicuous. He was usually the tallest person on the subway here too, though. He’s a big guy. Miss you, Serpico.

Photoblogs

Adam over at Boston Common posts some cool pictures now and again. I like this one.

I hope he doesn’t mind me stealing it.

The other morning I wished I had a camera to take a photo of a dozen or so toddlers who were all leashed together and holding hands and walking with their teacher down my street. I also wished I had a camera when I saw my beehive lady. Maybe I’ll start keeping my camera with me.

Woody Allen

Spiegel: Why have you, as a chronolist of Manhattan, not included September 11th in your films?

Allen: I don’t find politics profound enough to deal with it as an artist. The story of human beings is composed of murder, only the cosmetics and the decorations change: 2001 some fanatics killed Americans, and now the Americans kill Iraqis. And when I was a kid, Nazis murdered Jews. Now, Jews and Palestinians are butchering each other. Politics has been volatile for thousands of years, and meaningless, because everything repeats itself. But, as a citizen I vote, or course.

Blog Indifference is Infectious

Lots of bigtime bloggers are calling it quits lately. I never read them anyway so no matter. But the ennui is spreading…yes the INDIFFERENCE is spreading in the blogosphere … have blogs run their course?

Fuck You

I don’t know why I still get surprised when an asshole acts like an asshole. You’d think I’d have learned by now.

This post felt familiar so I looked around and yep, I posted almost exactly the same thing several months ago. See, should’ve learned twice over by now.

Nerd Affliction

Do you suffer from N.A.D.D.? If so, don’t worry. Nerd is the new black.

New Blog to Read

Garden State director Zach Braff has a blog. And he’s kinda funny. And it’s kinda neat reading a TV actor writing about coming home from work and having kabuke makeup stuck behind his ears. Or Fiona Apple being a bitch (my word) and refusing to let him use her song in his movie.

Voodoo Cakes

Here’s Sean eating one of my depression cupcakes.

He said as soon as he took the first bite he started feeling depressed. And blurry.

Is It Festivas Already?

Sean is running a series of contests over at his blog, akin to the Feats of Strength. See if you have the best abs or if you can eat a dozen donuts in an hour. I think those likely to win one will be unlikely to win the other.

Atonement

I walked to work today to work off some of the cupcakes. My ass feels like lead. Lead cupcakes. Sorry, no pictures of those.

I Made Cupcakes!

Any time you see me baking you know I’m depressed.

Note to Self (and to anyone reading this):

Do not watch The Justice Files and then Queen of the Damned and then Young Adam right before you fall asleep unless you WANT to have a nightmare about dating a guy who turns out to be a serial killer.

Die Spammers

Got my first taste of comment spam this morning. Bastards!

Seasonal Wear

Since I wore my corduroys all through the summer, it’s only natural that I should now wear my capris all through the winter, right?
