Full day. Wrote 4K words. Went shopping. Discovered beds are expensive. Hauled mountains of meat up stairs. Watched 2 episodes of 'Angel'. Read an Astro City compilation. Helped do the laundry (a bit).Could be worse.
Sigh. I need to sleep soon, and I am bereft of anything useful to say. Was playing SWG. Got killed three times. Quickly. I have this problem with being grossly overconfident, or perhaps, overcurious -- even if I know som…
To Hedgie: My point was that this data won't survive, unless someone prints it out on acid-free paper. The media its stored on is too ephemeral. Any gap in civilization, even a generation without a continual process of b…
Read Neil Gaiman's blog. He writes about lawsuits, philsophy, and cool stuff of interest to tens of thousands of people. I write about my lunch. (Salisbury steak)Sigh. The wonder of a blog is that it allows you to record…
Today I found a new way to publically humiliate myself at the gym. I really need to get a more macho scream; while my stream of profanity is top-notch (well-honed by playing video games), the "screaming like a little gir…
Got home late last night and missed blogging. Had to save the solar system from the Negaverse. Got killed by terminator yoma. Stupid yoma. Ferret died too. Got better. So did ferret. Go, me!
Still the third-prettiest. M…
The dishwasher is bleeding.I admit, this sounds like an off-broadway play, or possibly something put together with the sort of NEA grant that gives Republicans a good non-issue to rant about come election time. Nonethele…
So, it is 7:10 on a Saturday. I did 4K words today, which was my goal. I also napped, which wasn't a goal, but seems inevitable. I also also addressed the swamp which had grown up around the kitty feeding area and discov…
So.
Lost Skeleton of Cadavra.
Beth posted the 'plot', such as it is, over on her blog, so, no need for me to repeat it. The movie was everything expected. It was a marvelous spoof of grade-z early 1960s science ficti…
Saw "Lost Skeleton of Cadavra". V. Funny. Review tomorrow. Sleep tonight.
In which Lizard is tired.We exercised today. I did 20 minutes, rather than my usual 15, on the weird running thingy, and then my usual round of weights. I think it's starting to work, in that, I'm ending the sessions mer…
Blogging because, well, I'm here. Not feeling well, physically. Fun game tonight, but train ride home was extremely bumpy, and I'm now headachey and nauseous. Sigh. Boring work today, boring work tomorrow, large project …
And speaking of ridiculous...I am not sure if these people are kidding or not...How To Make a Thought HelmetI found this site via Aliens and Children.And I found Aliens in Children via this site .
Who was it that said, "I have but one prayer: Lord, make my enemies ridiculous."?http://darksideofkarate.com/
To Hedgie: Nope, Captain Kangaroo was not at Iwa Jima, either.Another legend down the tubes.
I should be writing.Instead, I shall discuss "Shark Attack 3: Megaladon". This was considerably better than "Deep Shock", in that SA3:M featured the following:a)People being eaten by sharks.b)Nipples.Generally speaking, …
Ah, urban myths. What amazes me is that in the time it takes to pass them on, you can do the research to debunk them.Mr. Rogers was not a Navy SEAL.Things you learn from deservedly-obscure RPGs:a)God is a Leo.b)God and S…
Friday. Tired. Looking forward to a sort of day-off tomorrow, then, massive writing Sunday and Monday.
I'm in a vaguely illiterate mood. This is odd for me. Usually, I write at the speed at which I think. Now, though,…
Thursday. Watched Enterprise. Am in severe pain. Do not think these things are related, though it took about ten minutes longer to watch the episode than it should have, as I kept hitting 'pause' to MST it. My final comm…
Today's movie not to watch:"Deep Shock"Cover of DVD and back of box promised movie about giant prehistoric eel eating people.Total people eaten by giant prehistoric eel in movie: 0Instead, what we got was something like …
Damn, damn, damn, damn. Didn't blog last night. Streak is ruined. Phooey.
Currently dealing with 'Client from hell' issues.
In other news...it's always the case that sea changes occur when you're not noticing them. To…
Ugh. Sleepy. Sooo....sleepy. Don't know why. Have to shower before I sleep, or I will be seriously foul 'pon the morrow. OTOH, do I really like my coworkers enough to care? Of such questions are..uhm..something.I said I …
Almost went to bed sans blogging. Not good. Must maintain streak.Low-stress day. Went to hobby store to sell off some old games that were basically just occupying space. Went shopping. Had evil lunch. Wrote some more. Wa…
Today's fun -- made a complete and total fool of myself at the gym, and not in the way I'd expect to make a complete and total fool of myself at the gym.
"Questions Arise Over Scalia-Cheney Outing" (http://news.yahoo.com/fc?tmpl=fc&cid=34&in=us&cat=supreme_court)
So, now that Tony and Dick are out of the closet, what does this mean for things like gay marri…
Late Wendesday. Blogging because I don't want to break my streak, which may be my longest ever. Currently tired and cranky. ("So what ELSE is new?") Looking forward to a weekend of writing on a project I can't mention. I…
I have determined that depression is contagious, and that I have no effective immune system.
It is no longer possible to keep up, cynicism wise. No matter how low (pun intended) I think humanity can go, it always susprises me. The human race long ago reached the depth of depravity; currently, it is riding downwa…
So. Where to begin?
Woke up late, because someone didn't have to go to work today, and, thus, turned off the alarm the first time it went off. Also woke up with very sore throat but no other symptoms, so, decided to go …
Yet another sign of mortality -- watching Boris get older. Sigh. He was trying to be a bathroom helper kitty (don't ask), and tried to jump up on the sink. He missed. He's been doing that a lot lately -- it's obvious he'…
2:15. Still writing. And wasting time. I'm going to do 7500 words this weekend, but between writing and killing time, that's pretty much all I'm getting done. I had such plans, too. Sigh.Beth will be home in a few hours.…
To PDG: I seem to recall I found it in a bargain bin at Borders. But you can get it from Amazon.http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000087F1O/qid=1075620062//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i2_xgl74/103-4421963-9043053?v=glanc…
