3:47 pm - Album review
|
Rufus Wainwright's "Montauk" is whimsical. It is full of whimsy.

This is what midnight is like? It's so boring. There isn't even any daylight. I don't understand you night people at all.

9:00 pm - Near misses
|
|
Oh shit, I almost nodded off on the sofa just now. I was listening to Bjork and eating a peanut butter cup. If... if I had reached a dream state... my god, imagine those dreams.

|
|
Though I wasn't motivated enough to investigate with additional senses, judging by the sounds and the smells I'd say a cat and a skunk got into a fight under my window at about 3:30 AM. Thug life.

8:59 pm - Things I never thought I would say
|
I.
The exercise bike I have my eye on is on sale at Sports Authority... but the sale ends today. I have one minute to make it to the Solomon Pond Mall.
II.
I drank two glasses of water today.
III.
Don't read.
Wait, wait. Let me finish. Don't read... Flannery O'Connor's Everything That Rises Must Converge if you ever want to experience the feeling of joy again.

7:18 am - Father Ted
|
So there he is, risen from the dead like that fella... E.T. The floor polish brought about all the symptoms of death, such as no heartbeat, rigor mortis, decomposition... but he was lucky. The effects just wore off him.
If you haven't seen Father Ted, do yourself a favor (and do). Even though, you know, I just spoiled the first season.
Yes, I'm procrastinating getting ready for work, even though... you know what? I would like to share two personal details about my personal self with you. They are as follows:
1. Monday is my favorite day of the week. Seriously.
2. This is the last cup of Ugly Mug coffee from the bag of Ugly Mug coffee beans Danielle bought me for Christmas. I would therefore like to remind you that I have another Christmas coming up on December 25!
Thank you for being a procrastinator with me this morning. Adieu.

4:40 pm - Saturday is for chores and watching Community
|
I can't seem to warm up today. What's that about? It isn't any colder outside than it's been, is it? Three pairs of socks. Although, I could try drinking wine. What a novel idea. I'm on it.
I'm kind of bored. Woke up super early. Finished a bunch of stuff around the house. Stayed in because, you know, holiday crowds aren't for me. Next up, I'm going to try to sync up my timers so both sets of lights go on at the same time. Wine should help with that, too.
Tomorrow is laundry day! I'm into some crazy shit.

9:50 pm - Back us off, Ensign. Nice and slow.
|
I miss Luscious Jackson. They were the lusciousest.
I just ordered Jill Cunniff's solo album. Maybe that'll tide me over for a while.
Hmm. I find myself resisting change more and more. Hence the missing of the Luscious Jackson and the ordering of the physical media. But of course I'm also resisting resisting change because resisting change is a new concept to me and is therefore technically change.
This is how quantum singularities are born.
So this post didn't go the way I thought it would. The "Captain Obvious" subject no longer applies. Let's change it. I'm going with a Star Trek reference.

 I spend my days in timelines. This is about 11 hours' work. I'll probably spend about two weeks on this nine minute video when it's all said and done.
Ha! Oops, I dozed off for a few minutes. Post and sleep in 5... 4... 3...

|
Okay, Danielle. Maybe that pot of coffee wasn't a good idea. Monsieur is wired.
So anyone else accidentally drink a pot of coffee right before bed tonight? I imagine it's a pretty common occurreennccee.
Okay, I'm gonna turn my pillows over (so I get the cool side) and try this sleeping thing again. I hope to see each and every one of you in my dreams because it's boring when you only see me in yours.
