April 2008
I was scheduled for a voiceover at 1pm and my client didn’t show. This is the one that slips me a Benjamin after the job’s over. Since he didn’t arrive, he now owes me one Benjamin for the no-show and another for the rescheduled session. Could 20 minutes of work ever be more overpaid? Probably. But let’s pretend like it couldn’t and just marvel at that for a...

A 'Saved by the Bell' Quiz →
Jenschuetz, I believe that if you don’t get 100% on this quiz, you will have your superfan card revoked.
Hell... I mean HECK!
thenelsontwins: Tomorrow I head to sunny Phoenix, home of sand demons, snakelets, and Mr. Scorpio. Am I excited, not really, but then again, maybe I am. Hopefully i get to put in some face time at the old swammin pool and maybe, just maybe, live the dream arizizona stizyle. This is another new weblog, some claim easier (amo, you know who you are), but time will tell. Hopefully between my...

I don’t care if it rains or freezes, just please, please, please don’t let me fall asleep at my desk today. It would probably go ignored by most of my co-workers, but it is most certainly in bad form no matter who notices. And, since I’m on my third caffeinated beverage of the day and feel absolutely zero, I think it’s safe to say that you are my only hope. Thanks, ...
Current State of the Union
The tulips are blooming, but they’re yellow, not white. The hot pink tree is in rare form. I’m glad it didn’t freeze this year and end up looking bedraggled. I’m inspired by all the growing to plant some things, but am uninspired by the lack of time I have to do it. Not having time to plant expands to things like not having time to eat which means I’m below my goal...

Ford’s Theater - Night (1865) - Presidential Box Abraham Lincoln sits watching the stage play, “My America Cousin”. John Wilkes Booth stealthily sneaks into the presidential box and fires a gun into the back of Lincoln’s head.
John: Sic Semper Tyranus!
BAM! A shot rings out in the theater. There is silence. Slowly Lincoln turns around.
Lincoln: Nice Try Fucktard. Good thing I...
Fashion, The Questionnaire →
The only flaw with this soon-to-be-mine tome is that my love McQueen wasn’t included.
“But many facts about a life should be left out, they are easily replaced.”
– from My Life by Lyn Hejinian My mind sometimes works this way. I’ve loved this book since college because of the frenetic thoughts that pass through as you read. Almost every sentence conjures up something, yet they don’t necessarily fit together and reading is less linear and more...
Table of Condiments That Periodically Go Bad →
This table was made with me in mind. Is it bad that I noticed right off that ketchup was spelled wrong? sarahcroberts: Actually pretty useful, I didn’t even know Olive Oil could go bad.

eBay Store - mama stone vintage: women's mini... →
For some reason, I just can’t wear vintage pieces. I want to, but rarely have the time to comb through stores searching for things. eBay and I have a very contemptuous relationship - I want things, but rarely bid because I know I’ll be beat at the last second by some sniper - but this store might be the thing to get me bidding and wearing vintage.
Crave THIS!
I get strange cravings all day long. Who knows why? I’m sure it’s some psychological trigger that prompts me to think of these taste sensations, but just now I was cleaning my desktop, filing documents in their proper place and had the unquenchable desire to drink a gin and tonic with lime.
Up and Then Down: The New Yorker →
The brilliant article about elevators that is accompanied by the previous video. I credit that same Mr. Whitehead with my on-going fascination with the go-up-box, but Mr. Paumgarten’s article makes them even more wonderful and alluring, 41 hours trapped notwithstanding.
