Now playing in iTunes: Mother In Law, Little Mac. Well, I let a little time get away from me there. I had a pretty good streak going for a while, posting nearly every day, but then things got a bit crazy. Ah well, I didn’t make any promises at the get-go, so your complaints are [...]

dental fun

Now playing in iTunes: Is This All, Jonatha Brooke. Had a dentist appointment this morning…

parade day!

Now playing in iTunes: Girlfriend, Matthew Sweet. Happy Wednesday; sorry about missing yesterday. I was incredibly tired yesterday…probably too many stupidly late nights catching up with me. So I actually managed to pull off an earlier bedtime when evening rolled around. Feeling better this morning.

Now playing in iTunes: Stop Your Groanin’, Paul deLay. An appropriate (and random) choice by iTunes there, as last night brought me a peak experience: sitting in with Paul himself.

sunday, sunday

Now playing in iTunes: Prisoner of Life, Johnny Adams. Kind of a lazy, hanging-around-the-house Sunday so far, helping out both kids with long-term school projects that are due next week. Doing our best to eliminate the influence of the familial gene for procrastination. On the other hand, there’s really no reason to rush on that…

Tack-O-Rama

June 4th, 2005

Well, not really. I just liked the sound of that phrase. I am a little tired this morning…another too-late evening for no particularly good reason. Watched 3 episodes from the “Arrested Development” DVD last night. I know we’re behind the curve and everybody who’s anybody already knows how good this show is, but…if it so [...]

happy friday.

June 3rd, 2005

I don’t really have that classic sense of Friday — release all that tension — TGIF — that I had when I worked in an office setting, or certainly when I was in school (both teaching, and as a student). When you work for yourself, those boundaries kinda get blurred. This obviously has both potential [...]

you should try this.

Gone to the Dogs: a new British comedy film Find out what kind of dog you would be! This site, for a British film, has a “game” called “What Dog Are You?” which asks you ten questions and then tells you what breed of dog you would be if you were, well, a dog. Turns [...]
