So in lieu of any kind of coherent, sensible, serious, and meaty writng, I’m going to give you a brain-dump of snipppets. 1. My hair remains challenging and defiant. I have a tendency to shower or bathe in the evening, before I go to bed, because I have a vast aversion to going to bed […]

1. My favorite Beavis & Butthead episode ever! Buttniks. Crrrrappuchino, a rrrrap-pa-pa-pa-pa-pah! 2.

1. I don’t own any decent belts, and today I strongly considered leaving my chain-and-lock around my waist in order to keep my pants from shifting around. I bring my bike into the office and put it in the supply room across from where I sit, so I wouldn’t need the lock anyway until my […]

1. Steam Boy Rocked. I’m not going to spoiler this movie for anyone, I will just say that it was everything a family movie ought to be. Lots of adventure, excellent animation, cool fantastical inventions, lots of “wow-factor.” I actually felt myself burst into a big grin, and had to forceably restrain myself from applauding […]

1. You’ve got a lobster and you’ve got a magnet… Older than crap, but I love it. Lurve, even. I was just now playing that movie and headbanging around my livingroom doing my “deathmetal” voice. The cats looked at me like I’d lost the better part of my mind. 2. It’s dildo! I have such […]

10 Things: Lists seem to be a popular journaling diversion, and I feel diversionary today. 5 things I like, 5 things that drive me screaming around the bend, respectively. Good Stuff! 1.
