[I’ll be in the lobby drinking for two]Authorities recovered some stolen Munch paintings. That’s good news. My off days were wonderful but oh how quickly they left me. We got out and went downtown today. Checked out Peabody Place. There’s not much to it, but it’s still a nice place to just walk around. Bought the first Neutral Milk album and the new Kings of Leon. We stopped by Art Center and I got a…
[Letting my fingers do the walking]We finally, finally got a phone book. Well, two books, actually: One big fat book of yellow pages and another big fat book of white pages. They’ll be infinitely helpful, I’m sure. I didn’t roll out of bed until noon today. Such a waste. I’m sure it’s beautiful outside; it has been for the past week. When Phil gets off work, we’re going to do something, though I’m not sure…
[Good news, everyones]This is awesome. Hopefully I can get off for Saturday to see The Killers, but I bet everyone in this newsroom will be trying to do the same thing. Well, maybe Phil can go out and have some fun.
[I’m a phony and I love it!]Salon has an extremely interesting and relevant interview with NYU philosophy professor Thomas De Zengotita, who just published a book about media, mediation, and its effects on our beloved post-modern Western culture. Basically, De Zengotita argues that human behavior, in a culture overflowing with tediously flattering media representations and endless choices about what kind of person you want to be, tends to be little more than method acting, but…
[A whole new way to hate]This site is fantastic. Dr. McDaniel (poli-sci) gave money to the Clark campaign. It’s really funny seeing all the MTSU professors donating $50 and $100 to the Democrats. You know that’s a big chunk of change for a professor in Tennessee. Jennings A. Jones gave more than $1,000 to the RNC. Doris and Jim Demos (of Demos’ steakhouses) gave $2,000 each to the Bush campaign. Guess I know where I…
[Twos, fours, and one-eyed whores]Groan. I woke up this morning puking, my stomach in knots. For a lady, that shit is scary. I think it was just something I ate. It better have been. I’m still not fully recovered, and it’s 1:30. The thought of food makes me … ew. I spent the evening playing Texas Hold ‘Em with my family. I had forgotten how much fun poker was. We used to play strip poker…
[111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321]Apparently. Ah, a Saturday night at work. I’ll probably go visit the parents tomorrow. My dad’s birthday is Tuesday. I have no idea what I’ll get him. I still sort of owe him an xmas present, since he already had what I got him. Hrm. Maybe I’ll buy a shit ton of Pop Secret popcorn in assorted varieties. He seems to love that stuff.
[Kazza whazza whaa?]Go here, click the poster, and print it out. Laugh. Rinse. Repeat.
[Aaargh]There are two giant chunks of sheet rock (or whatever it’s called) missing from the kitchen ceiling where the maintenance dudes finally decided to dig in and investigate why the washing machine would cause water to pour through the kitchen light. I’ve got to stop psyching myself out about this place. Last night as Phil and I were trying to go to sleep, we heard what sounded like someone putting the toilet seat up or…
[Too many shadows, too many sails]Yesterday was such a dreary, disgusting day that I wore all black to mourn the death of the earth. I’m thinking of dyeing my hair black, too. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a dramatic fake hair color, and I’m bored. I’ll do it! I’m crazy! We got two heapings of good news yesterday, despite the craptastic weather. My grandmother’s biopsy came back negative, so she does not…
