Hmm, haven't updated in a while. Not much to say. There's some crazy bastard out there with a sniper rifle shooting people. I know he hasn't actually shot anyone in DC yet, but I get a little freaked every time I go out... especially anywhere downtown.
On that tip, DC needs more guitar stores. Some place on U St or Logan or Adams-Morgan. I'm sick...

My housemate owned, up until very recently, a nutcracker named Boris. Boris dressed in garish hussar clothing and stood, arms proudly akimbo, grinning and towering haughtily over the miniature kremlin-style buildings at his feet.
He was a gift from her stepmother. She's always disliked Boris, but no matter how she tried she could not bring herself to throw him out:
"I can't get rid of...

raven:
crazybob. that is a crazy story. it made me giggle.
Wandered over to Adams-Morgan to follow up on some job leads, with no luck. Ended up spending money instead-- bought a few CDs (Mekons, Low, Spoon, Shipping News) and rented a few DVDs (The Man Who Wasn't There, Donnie Darko, The Lady Eve). Now I suppose I should listen/watch, but instead I'm surfing the net.
The more I check out the boards, the more I...

Im first in line with you to TP the white house!!!! I have a damn good marshmellow trick my parents neighbors hated when its cold out if it takes that long....
jessica:
You start it DC man! Although tping the White House would be a pretty hard feat! Even getting grass of the lawn is difficult. I had my friend do that once for me. My mom found the grass in a baggie and was like "what's this!". I told her grass. And she said "I know it's GRASS, but why do you have it in your desk! Are you doing drugs?!"
Last night I went with my friends to see "Spirited Away." I'm trying to find a way to explain just how much I enjoyed it without turning into a gibbering idiot. I love everything I've ever seen by Miyazaki and this was no exception. I just sat watching the whole movie with my mouth either hanging open or stuck in a big, silly grin that...

ahhhh! I am *so* jealous. I have to have to have to see this movie. All of the Miyazaki / Ghibli films are just utterly magical.
I completely forgot it was opening Friday. Must go check film listings NOW!

Whoo! It's ma birfday!
How do I feel? Tired, slightly depressed... could this be the onset of old age? Or was it just my housemate's cat waking me at 8AM to remind me that she's out of town and it's my job to supply the catfood?
Cats don't have snooze buttons.
I can already tell that it's going to be an effort to force myself...

If only cats did have snoozebuttons. That has to be one of the best impossible ideas I have ever heard.
Happy Birthday!

I keep getting job leads that keep evaporating before my eyes... I know persistence is key, but I tend to get discouraged too easily and spend a week feeling sorry for myself. Then by the time I get myself out there again all the other job leads have vanished and the cycle starts anew.
At least I can still afford to go out and get...

Happy Birthday!!!!
I spent the weekend at SPX, doing volunteering, hanging out with my comixgeek friends, checking out the indie comics action, spending more than I can really afford, and stargazing.
I got to meet:
Los Bros Hernandez(!)
Evan Dorkin
Carla Speed McNiel
Antony Johnston
Eddie Campbell
And my volunteer duties consisted of crowd control at an Art Spiegelman signing, though I didn't get to meet the...

Wow... I haven't been to a ska show since I moved to Boston and realized that the ska fans there all think they're too cool to dance. How is it in DC?

I was born in Takoma Park.
Been a while, I know folks... gotta keep my, erm, loyal audience entertained.
So here goes. All moved into my new apartment... OK, a few boxes left to go and I need to get my posters up. I'm sure that'll happen before the decade is up.
How much of a procrastinator am I? Over a month ago my friend's ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend said she could...

Got no friends
Maybe you're not friendly
My housemates decided to kick me out a few weeks back on trumped up charges of never doing the dishes. Then a week ago my friends down the street got an opening in their apartment. It's more expensive and not quite as big, but in every other way it's a much nicer place.

Heh, my current place has a dishwasher, but it's so tiny we never use it. My problem at the last place was that everybody did the dishes with about equal frequency, but I used more dishes because I cooked and ate things that weren't ramen.
Doing the dishes is one of those things like putting down the toilet seat-- no matter how regularly you do them, people only notice the times you DON'T.
And I'm just going to assume that somebody hacked into Robin's account to play a nasty joke on me in order to stave off the massive coronary that would otherwise occur...

There is a ladybug crawling around on my desk, but it has no spots. I've never before seen a spotless ladybug. I bend over it and tell it to "fly away home," but it doesn't seem to care that its children are unsupervised in a burning house... maybe this is no ladybug at all.

I caught a little lady-bug look alike at work the other day when it landed on me... but it did have spots. It was solid black with two little hearts on it's back that were red. Is that a love bug?
mia:
oh yeah!! By the way, you like A Tribe Called Quest and I love you now!
When this picture was taken of me, I was glancing off to the side to check on the progress of a game of pool. It amuses me that the way it's placed, it looks like I'm checking out my favorite SGs...
Does it look like Robin and I are having a "moment," or just playing stare-eyes?
