– Sorry for the delay in posting today. I’ve been busy… anyway do you like this month’s background? I thought I’d go for something a little bit more intense, it being the season of All Saints, All Souls, plus the sun going to sleep for awhile.
… Read the rest– On Friday I was going to check out the Financial District, but it rained all day, and I ended up sitting in a Barnes & Noble, working on Urbantasm. On Saturday, we went out to Matt’s going away party, and got back to Brooklyn to discover that some hooplehead had smashed in the window of our car, even though there was nothing to steal (although the fellow had turned the windshield wipers on, weirdly enough).
… Read the restLast night was pretty cool. I went to Mass after work, then hit three Barns & Nobles looking for some AllMusic guides. I ended up having to settle for 1001 Albums You Have to Hear Before You Die. Because sad as it may seem, this is often how I decide what music to listen to.
… Read the restYesterday. Not much to report. It doesn’t mean I wasn’t busy. It just means that I wasn’t busy doing anything interesting.
– HAPPY BIRTHDAY –
Josh.
– QUESTION OF THE DAY –
What is the creepiest book you’ve ever read. I don’t mean a book that just scared you as a child.
– Yesterday was realtively unmemorable. One significant development: I finally figured out how to burn MP3s to my player so that I can listen to them. Yay! Also (minor Deadwood spoiler): I am increasingly unimpressed with Mrs. Garrett.

… Read the restThe long weekend was busy and wonderful and fun, but I don’t want to ramble on for too long about it. The low point, fortunately, was Thursday morning, when I spent hours duelling with one DMV and two SSA offices. The goal?
… Read the rest– Yesterday sucked. I got a lot accomplished, but it nevertheless sucked. So instead of regaling you with that, I’ll talk about baseball.
– A friend of me called me out on a couple recent shout-outs to the Cleveland Indians. “Fuck the Tribe,” was what he said, specifically, although I think the sentiment was something along the lines of “How could you support the Indians when they kept Detroit out of the playoffs?”
… Read the rest– Yesterday. Blah. Whatever.
– QUESTION OF THE DAY –
Suppose you run a gas station, and you have to give customers a key to get into the bathroom. What do you attach to the end of the key?
– I’ve been deeply involved in my job search, and it’s superceded writing in demands on my time lately. Some good news is that my wife and I were able to lock down a car at a pretty good deal (her parents helped us), and we’ll drive it back to New York this weekend.
… Read the rest– Man am I useless this week. Yesterday’s big accomplishment was starting my job search (on Monster.com) and doing the dishes. Sheesh.
– HAPPY BIRTHDAY –
Chris.
