Just as a quick update, I totally kicked ass today.  Not so much at work, but I wrote a letter to the editor defending a friend of mine and explaining some of the latest public access (Channel 2) drama.  Sent that to New Times and Tribune.  Also, my lovely and I were finally able to secure a two bedroom place downtown and it rocks ( Read more... )

For those who would like to join us, Chantelle and I will be watching Ratatouille at Sunset drive-in tonight, July 3rd at 8:30.  My parents might be there too and they are wonderful ( Read more... )

This Friday, June 29th, I'll be hosting what will likely be the last movie night at my place (looking to moving into a new place very soon).  Anyway, if you're interested we're doing an odd double feature this time around with other funny 'net videos in between.  Here are the details ( Read more... )

Helllloooooo? Anyone still reading this?
So there are a lot of reasons I personally have stopped blogging for months and months at a time:
I had been doing it for at least six years already and was/am suffering a little burnout; the place I'm most used to posting and replying from (work) has been prohibitively busy this year; more personal ( Read more... )

Less than a month to go and I'm excited to be going on (and organizing) the second annual Snowpunks trip to Tahoe. Like last year we have two huge cabins- one with an indoor hot tub, one with a sauna- and each with an amazing view of North Lake Tahoe. We're not big skiers so we'll be sledding, partying, sipping hot coco, making lewd snowmen (and ( Read more... )

First it was Burning Man; now, I'm going on a Caribbean cruise for 7 days. I've been using crazy amounts of vacation time this year but so far it's all been worth it. Anyway, I'm going to be gone for a while. I'm sorry to be missing out on the breast cancer fundraiser, the zombie party, etc. but...well...it's a damn CRUISE, ya know?! :D
So, blueangelrock ( Read more... )

Once tagged by this entry, the assignment is to write a blog entry of some kind with six random facts about yourself. Then, pick six of your friends and tag them; no tag backs. This explanation should be included ( Read more... )

Yay! I'm finally packed and ready to hit the road. All financial worries have been allayed for the time being and I'm ready for a heaping helping of otherworldly weirdness in the desert ( Read more... )

Words cannot express the gratitude I feel right now. Thank you to all of you who have offered advice or monetary help. As it turns out, gjunell, a kind spirit whom many of you know (and a close neighbor of mine) has stepped up and helped me out. I am now at least certain that all the time, money, and emotional energy I've invested in my preparations ( Read more... )

So, that thing in the desert I do every year. Burning Man. Yeah, I hope I can still go to that. You see, as a consciencious renter, I dropped off my rent check early and clearly wrote "Post until 9-1-06" on it to ensure they wouldn't try to cash it before my next direct deposit ( Read more... )
