Spent my day running errands, cleaning my apartment, and getting ready to cook the feast tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be spent in the kitchen.

Looks like 5-6 guests for the meal, which I'm planning on serving around 6.

Deep-fried turkey, cornbread dressing, mashed sweet potatoes, cheddar corn casserole, green beans, cranberry sauce (the jelly stuff out of the can, hells yeah!), and cornbread. Wine (several bottles,...

My girlfriend got jumped on her way to my apartment the other night.

It was dark, and she was skating down the sidewalk when she got hit from behind without realizing anyone was there. She was knocked off her board and suckerpunched right in the eye. She couldn't really see anything, but realized her board was next to her on the ground, so she grabbed...

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Swedes trust IKEA, purveyor of affordable assemble-yourself furniture and Swedish meatballs in 22 countries, more than their own government, politicians, media or trade unions, according to a new poll published Wednesday.

The only institutions they respect more than the creators of the Billy bookcase are schools and universities. Even the maker of the ultimate safe family car, Volvo -- the car business...

Well, well, well.

Tonight, the lady friend and I went to the Bottom Lounge to see a couple guys from New Model Army do an acoustic set ... I wasn't sure what to expect, but HOLY SHIT it was fucking fantastic!!

After that, we grabbed some coffee and a little grub at a diner across the street from the club with my old roommate and...

Yeah, I realized a bit too late that I was missing 'em, for something that I knew was going to be much less enjoyable. Grrrrr.
You know, I still think I've seen them just the one time. How lame is that?

Got my car back yesterday ... if you hadn't heard, I blew the engine a few weeks ago. They had to ship a new one in from Germany.

Initially, the service guy didn't think BMW was going to cover it under warranty (and I wouldn't have blamed them ... doing 145mph on a cold engine is really a stupid thing to subject your car to),...

Maybe the new engine is HAUNTED and they just wanted to get rid of it.

Back from New Orleans ... had a blast, and had some bad ass food. Best costumes were some dudes dressed up as Willy Wonka and a gaggle of Oompa Loompas.

Got invited to a Sunday morning "employee-only" breakfast cooked by the owner of the bar we hung out in for all the cats that work for him, plus a handful of "certain regulars." It was...

Ah, the brink of elimination. Well, there's at least one more game left, so we'll see ...

I re-read Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman yesterday ... entertaining book; I'd forgotten what a fun read it was.

A nice diversion, but now back to more serious (Hunter S Thompson) stuff.

Thinking about going blonde ... thoughts?

Go Yanks!!

What a great outing by Pettite last night ... he's fun to watch when he's on.

So my brother got himself in a world of shit and it's up to me to bail him out. Puts me out something huge, but that's what family's all about, right? Fuck.

Dollface having a party tonight; the Vexers are playing tonight. Going to be a nutty...

Pettitte pitched like a hall of famer last night.

The thing to remember is that I don't think the Marlins know what fear is. They are such a laid back team. They are just out there having fun and they know no fear!

Nice Device rocked. Electric 6 was good.

The Yankees won; the curse of the Bambino apparently still holds as strong as the curse of the billy goat.

I start culinary school on January 5.

i'd like a nice vegetable/lentil casserole
