A triumphant day at the Best Buy!!!

Most imporantly, I dragged one of my friends kicking and screaming into the iPod cult. (It's his damned fault I bought one in the first place, so I was sure as hell going to make sure he gave in and got one too.)

I also got The Critic box set, which I've craved forever. I got the first...

After that, who has the energy to write a journal entry?

I'm digging for fire.

I went out at lunch today to buy a couple of things. First and foremost, I wanted the DVD set of The Critic. Because, y'know... it's fucking hysterical. Also, any of the following CDs -

Rammstein - Sehnsucht
Slipknot - Iowa
Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Jacknife to a Swan
Talk Talk - any anthology
Roxy Music - any anthology
The...

hmmm.
i don't think there is a difference between university and college. i think that in the united states, "university" is designated for colleges which also house masters degree programs.
i went to kenyon college. 'tis a four year college in rural ohio which has one of the best english departments in the country. very highly acknowledged school amongst those in the know (very tiny school, about 1,500 kids).
i also aplied to colgate university, where i also got in. which is a small (but not kenyon small, about 2,200 kids) in rural new york state.

no difference, really.

CD prices, oy, tell me about it. There's a chain called CD Plus that you may have heard of. Their prices and selection are quite good, though HMV has them shut out of the bigger markets. I made a couple of pilgrimages to the Kingston location when I was at Queen's last year.

That deliciously poetic bit about Lunna vs. the sun tickled me. I will have to make her acquaintance.

So I went out and wound up getting the DVD set with the complete series of The Tick (live action version), because the damned store didn't have The Critic in yet. Hopefully I'll track that bad boy down tomorrow.

The Tick has been thus far hysterical. It's great if you like camp, the absurd, or just guys in blue tights. And hey, who doesn't?

I...

kiss kiss love kiss
teclo:

the darkness = pure fun
rammstein = pure silly
slipknot = pure dumb

but that's just my opinion.
i used to listen to a lot of nine inch nails / marilyn manson / skinny puppy / ministry when i was a poor goth chica in college (university for you canadians).
i say, go with ministry.

It's so bitterly, bitterly cold here. It made my insides very, very sad.

The gf and I are spending much of our quiet time making our way to the inevitable end of the Firefly DVDs. That show is so freaking good it's not fair to the other shows. Fortunately, I believe the complete series for The Critic is out today, and I full well expect...

I don't regret pursuing my English degree. I studied literature I would've never encountered otherwise, and I thoroughly enjoyed my Linguistics classes. I just want to cut some hair now. smile

Saturday morning, I slept until noon. I don't know what was better - the feeling of waking up rested, or the feeling of looking at the clock and seeing that, for the first time I can remember since University, I slept IN.

The day was a little low-key. I did a lot of laundry, although I stand by my earlier entry that a communal apartment...

Tonight I get to go to bed without setting the alarm clock for the first time in what seems like forever. You can't even imagine how desperately I need this. I actually get to do this again tomorrow night, although I should probably be at the office for at least a small part of the weekend. Maybe Sunday smile

The gf is out of town, and...

I was inspired after seeing Tegan's. I think it looks sexy...my roses will be small like that.

The gf had her first day at the super-spiffy new job, and seemed to dig it. Plus, she now works just a short walk from my office, so I can bring her lunch, which is always nice.

At least, it would be, if she actually waited for me instead of having KFC instead biggrin I wound up with two extra orders of Chicken Korma from the...

I agree that a love for musical theatre is quite defensible if you've actually been involved in it! Nightowl and I met in a preduction of "Grease" and started dating during a production of "Oklahoma." So we are all musical theatre geeks and we should be proud of it! biggrin

Ear piercings are GREAT on the right guy. Go for it - then head to the strip club to celebrate some more!!

(By the way, the "Hair" story is cool. I learn more interesting things about you with each post!)

So the gf brings home cinnamon toothpaste.

I know! That was my reaction!

Who knew? It's freaking fantastic.

Mmm. Toooooooooothpaste.

Cinnamon? Interesting.

I got a copy of Superunknown before I got Badmotorfinger. Not that it's a bad album I just don't listen to it that often when compared to Superunknown. The thing I dislike the most about the song "Somewhere" is that annoying intro. Oh well, to each their won.
gigi:
Ooooooh, I've been wanting to try that!!! Your gf rocks like you do! biggrin

Another night of drinking with the lads. One of the guys wanted to hit this new place that had opened up downtown, but I refuse to wait in line anywhere - particularly at the type of club that starts a lineup before the club is full. That's just not cool. And this lineup was extending far past the building before 10:30.

So we wound up...

I sez, fuck 'em. They'd take VIP treatment if it were offered to them, but it wasn't, and so they got snowed on. C'est la vie!

If I had to guess, I'd say it was that low-carb Sleeman crap they were pushing at the first place--am I right?

I'm wired and exhausted pretty much all the time now.

What I really need is to go to bed without setting the alarm clock, and to sleep for an entire weekend.

It's on the horizon. It's just not here yet.

And we're out of sugar and I really, really want some Kool-Aid. Is that so wrong?

At least it's supposed to be warmer this weekend....

Once you've been a raisin, you can never be a grape.

My friend wants to go to the strippers AGAIN tonight. He and I should not be allowed to play together at all because we do such terrible, terrible things biggrin Seriously - it's been NINE DAYS since the first time I set foot in one. Too much of a good thing! Too much of a...
