So I went outside tonight and the air smelled like… Okay, it reminded me of a bad combination of a multitude of Strawberry Shortcake dolls. Remember those? They all smelled like whatever they were named after. I had a friend when I was a kid who had every single one of them lined up around […]

I was driving home and just a few blocks away from my place when I turned the corner and there’s this wannabe Tony Hawk lamely skateboarding down the middle of the street. So I figured, you stay in the middle, I don’t have a problem. Instead, when I was about six feet away from him […]
I’ve had some really bizarre snippets of life lately that just don’t translate well into words. The three pages worth of backstory leading up to the punchline bore the hell out of even me. And I usually think I’m pretty damn funny. It cracked me up that hours after realizing that, I got an email […]
I’m not working tonight. Okay, I am, but later. It was a weird day today. After my boss thought I had quit yesterday when I was ten minutes later than my usually ten minutes late, I thought I’d call her this morning and let her know I was, again, running late. Which I did. And […]
Although it means I’ll have to start— Fuck. Okay, humor me with my mid-sentence tangent. Oz shout out from Bedford Diaries: Prof: Last week we discussed the definition of sexual misconduct. This week let’s talk about responsibility. Whoever you had for sixth grade health— Ms. Franklin, Sister Peter Marie… Heh. Anyway, since CSAs are mainly […]
I hate daylight savings. It’s never a smooth transition and I end up grumpy for like a week. Okay, not really. But it’s still annoying. And I’m tired. I spent the evening editing video footage of a forum on voting in MN. Now I’m spending the afternoon saving video clips of it. It’s never a […]
Clean slate. Hey, Slate. Hm. I’ll be right back. Okay, this is from Uncle Tupelo’s last show: Slate : Mississippi Nights (05.01.94) I love that song. All of Anodyne is a beautiful album, though. And I finally lived up to my word and uploaded The Last Truck Stop on Earth for someone, so I should […]
I have to work all day today. I’d rather go back to bed. But unfortunately circumstances prevail that give me no choice. Go do something fun for me today. […]
Hm. I was grumpy last night. My hiccups did eventually go away after like three or four hours. And they really did hurt. Turns out the new office mascot is sticking around for awhile longer. It’s a lot of fun being able to take a break to pet him. And it cracks me up because […]
I have the fucking hiccups. And I’ve had them for like an hour. And as I am wont, every time I hiccup, I follow it up by “Ow.” Try spending a few hours hiccuping every 10 seconds. It’ll hurt like hell after a bit. I will shortly wish to shoot something. Oh wait! That moment […]
I have no idea why, but I decided to watch the SAG awards show. But it is sort of relevant since people keep popping up that roam around my little planet. So I suppose I oughta deviate from not paying attention to these sorts of things and watch. Yay! Kiefer won for best actor in […]
It’s that time again. Two full hours of Cops. The arresting officers are discussing where they found drugs in a vehicle (between the two seats in back) Perp: “If that was mine why wouldn’t I have pushed it behind the seat?” Cop: “Probably because you’re stupid.” HA! You know, I really miss the old Cops […]
Mixed bag on the planet this weekend. It’s kinda weird in the Twin Cities. We’re in the middle of January (okay, end of January) and it’s in the mid-40s. There’s been some talk of global warming, but I’m not sure it isn’t just weather being weather. In a month or so we’ll hit the coldest […]
Wow. It’s a Rhett Miller fest on Veronica Mars tonight. Most notably they played “Four Leaf Clover” by the Old 97s. Featuring the lovely Exene Cervenka of X fame. The track is off of Too Far to Care. And is well worth the purchase. I’m guessing the last song is from Rhett’s latest solo album. […]
Oh Lord. What to write. I have been having serious trouble getting out of bed in the morning this week. I’m not a morning person in the slightest, but this week has been horrid. I actually contemplated calling in dead this morning. I figured that if they didn’t believe me they would at least laugh […]
This is a random thought, but why in the world would you ever have your nickname be BJ? Just sayin’. Ugh. I hate Sundays. Hate. Hate. Hate. I feel like crawling under the covers and staying there. I don’t want to talk to anyone, I don’t want to go anywhere, I just want to be […]
Is there some sort of Copy Bitch Code of Honor? “Thou shall not peek at all the random shit you’re making copies of”? Perhaps there needs to be. For the record, if you’re needing some personal stuff copied, DO IT YOURSELF. If you hand me something that looks interesting and/or scandalous, you best believe I’ll […]
Oh dear Lord. I can’t stop laughing. Every once in awhile Ramona will wake up from a long nap and look all drowsy and drugged out and trying to adjust to the light. And every time, I think, God she looks like someone or something. Tonight she did the same thing and I figured it […]
Two full hours of 24. I don’t know if my heart can take it. I have high hopes for this season. Hm. Palmer’s brother has a similar computer to me. Weird. Best line of the night (as Jack’s dealing with the son): “The only reason you’re still conscious is because I don’t want to carry […]
One of my favorite recent Cops episode moments is on tonight. Some crazy old guy is terrorizing a local fast food joint. The incident itself is kind of funny (the guy keeps screaming “ACLU! ACLU!” as he is being cuffed). But the reason it stands out is because after he’s in custody they’re interviewing a […]
