Oh my god, that fruit suggestion sounds so good. And I looked up that yogurt's website and now I want some SOOOO BAD.

Also, me and Greg are going to be day-tripping to LA sometime in the next few months, would you want to catch a museum/lunch with us?
anomalisa:
Umm...how do you miss an Amazon like me? IWell....I didn't get there until midnight. Maybe that's how?


Wish I could sharing the movie right now! Alas, I cannot.

MOVIE NIGHT FORSTALLED.

What was I thinking, setting movie night over the top of the restart of Heroes?

Me and a couple of tubs of ice cream will be at Casa del Fuego tonight.
gangstaswan:
Believe it or not, that makes me feel a whole lot better.
redvillain:

Swoopo.com, The Vietnam Iraq War, and the Economics of Stupidity

I like PS3s. I could use several, for reasons that deserve their own post. They tend to run 300$ used on eBay, which makes me happy. So when I saw an advertisement saying one had just been auctioned off for 30$, did my ears perk up? In that "this is too good to be true",...

just wanted to say hi n i wish u still had a room open. apt hunting is the worst
heracleitus:
Yeah, except for the war isn't being continued to honor dead soldiers. The Swoopo analogy could still potentially apply because, as it stands, chances are as soon as we pull out, there's a big civil war and we look like idiots. The longer we stay, the longer we can put off looking stupid and perhaps marginally increase our chances of that scenario not taking place, albeit, in my opinion, at a much lower rate than .15$ would be towards that PS3.

I love that short, obscure words tell us how the priorities of our civilization have changed. What once was so important that it merited a short word no longer matters enough to remember.

Some of my favorites:

kerf: a cut. Used to discuss how much material is lost as it is cut away with a saw or a welding torch.
I love this word because...

Dude, I don't know if I buy that besoms were ever in vogue as far as conversation pieces are concerned.

I'm not really that bothered by the fact that a guy was shot 50 feet from my door this week. I AM concerned that my landlord thinks that it's any business of his whether or not I'm having sex with my future roommate, or that I keep a pair of guinea pigs.

Time to find a new place.

Of course that's what some libertarians claim to believe. However, that's like saying "ALL DEMOCRATS ARE X". It's not the libertarian philosophy that pisses me off (completely), it's the individuals who claim to espouse this ideal who try to convert me or say "Do you believe this? Then you're a libertarian!"

It was really frustrating trying to make money off of someone who's more interested in proselytising.

Back in LA.

Can't quite get home yet. There's police tape a block to either side of my front door. According to the neighbors it was "just a shooting" but can't have been a bad one because there haven't been any ambulences.

Welcome home?

Awww, thank you for the carpool offer. Apparently Emily lives a few blocks away from me. At any rate, I won't be needing a ride tomorrow. I have an appointment with an orthopedic specialist who's going to set my ankle properly and put a walking cast on, but I'll be pretty doped up after that.
acidgrampa:
Probably not. In your neighborhood, it's mainly gang-on-gang shootings.
So unless you are a member of such an organization and I haven't heard about it, you're probably OK.
Except for stray bullets. wink

Stopped in Reno.
There's got to be a hotel room shower available somewhere in this town.
