I've been reading a lot of Salinger lately, and honestly, it's affecting my writing. I mean, I'm not using goddam italics all the time or anything, but I'm splicing my sentences with so many commas I'm practically a ninja, with commas as my ninja-sword-thing. For the record, I win with that analogy, that was awesome. Since I'm so Salingery, and ( Read more... )

I went to alumni campfire. Seymour was exactly as I remembered, but with extra buildings, and new chairs, and the wee lil kids were towering over me; but the social dynamic at any rate hadn't changed. The campfire was actually super-swell. I was obnoxious, but it was fun. We sang happy birthday to Don as a tweener. Yuri ate dog saliva... ( Read more... )

According to imdb, the gal who plays the lead in Mirrormask was born in '84. So despite the fact that she looks like she's 15 in the movie, she's actually 21. Which is creepy and wrong. I'm so sick of young girls looking older than they are, and I'm even more sick of older girls looking younger than they are. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not ( Read more... )

I stop at the red light adjacent to Starbucks on Proctor and this family crosses the street in front of me. Presumably it's a family, a lady with two small male children, so, like, a mother and her sons. Anyways, the elder son is decked out in a military jacket with camo pants and I just started laughing. I was thinking about how horrible, and ( Read more... )

I'm not sayin she's a gold digger... but my coworkers are, and she failed the door test. Clearly it's time to kick her to the curb and go back to being alone. I need to hurry up and finish building my apartment. Think I'll go work on that some now ( Read more... )

So I was avoiding really writing about my super-fantastic week because I was planning on writing Kim to tell her all about it and I didn't want it to sound like some rehashed tale I was telling again. But the stupid took over to some extent, and I ended up writing nothing about my week, and so, in the interest of not elaborating, which is of great ( Read more... )

Look at yer boy Samuel L. Jackson pimp his newest endeavor on MTV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coiwZxuBW78 The saddest thing is he's totally right, and clearly he knows it.

Yeah, that's all I had to say.

The universe is naturally balancing. By which I mean, MY universe is naturally balancing. There I was in the midst of the best week ever. Work was tough, but we were getting by and it looks like I pulled down a full 40 for the week. Then I come home, after having two days of work in a row that both lasted for more than 8 hours and in my hotmail ( Read more... )

Plenty of things have been happening this week. I've been busy living, as opposed to writing about how I'm living. It's been a nice change. Tuesday I had dinner with Jenn, we went to the Sea Grill and had the most amazing dessert. It's called the Rainier Volcano, and I strongly recommend it to anyone looking to ruin their diet for the day. ( Read more... )

I ended up getting dinner at the Antique Sandwich Co. and then traipsing all through Point Defiance yesterday. It was about three hours of walking, without any music, pretty much just me and my thoughts. Oh, I did call Arlene near the start of it. I think we're on for lunch today, which is really exciting. Like, exciting to the point that I ( Read more... )
