In which I’m planning my weekends. I agreed to work 5 hours tomorrow from 8 to 1, so I’ll not be going out tonight. (Not that I would have been anyway; I just wanted to sound like I have choices!) I’m thinking of watching Mad Men (season 1, episode 7) and doing some knitting for […]
I don’t like TV. There are shows on TV that I enjoy, yes, but overall TV is crass and evil and fills your head with shit. It is a waste of time. While I’ve been known to veg in front of the glass teat myself, it’s a diversion for me and not a lifestyle. TV makes you complacent, stupid, and greedy, and while it does so it systematically makes you think you’re cleverer than you really are while simultaneously undermining your self-confidence. Fuck TV. People who watch too much TV are voluntarily crippling themselves.
In which there are two lists. And pictures. And a lot of colons. I love using colons. These are the things I DID NOT do over the weekend: Get laid, get wasted, have an epiphany, knit, buy a bike, eat Mexican food, do yoga. These are the things I DID do over the weekend: Friday, […]
In which I’m bugging people I don’t even know. I want to see this film. A lot. Unfortunately, you gotta be an organization to get a copy – DVDs for individuals aren’t for sale yet. So I bugged Sheila over at the paper, and she gave me the names of some unsuspecting progressive people in […]
In which I shop online… for clothing. Oops. But it’s not like I don’t need clothes. Etsy is crack. Do you know this? OMG a zillion things I could totally wear right now! It turns out that since the mall in this town is half torn down, I doubt Macy’s is going to carry anything […]
In which you hear all about the fascinating stuff we rockstars do on Wednesday evenings. Yesterday was that dreaded day, the one where I had to actually follow through on my promise to go to band practice and learn some songs. I hate band practice. I always have. Practicing is boring because it doesn’t involve […]
In which I had an awesome weekend, even though I never did get around to being a consumer. I was gonna buy a bicycle this weekend, but I didn’t. By the time I got moving on Saturday, any good bikes over at my co-worker’s street-long yard sale would have been gone so I didn’t even […]
In which I write a timecapsule missive to my younger self. Hey, dingbat, remember when you were twenty-something and you saw that disgusting old man in his driveway caring lovingly for his hot little convertable, and you wondered how he could possibly be unaware of how painfully stupid he looked? Remember how you assumed he […]
In which I love them but they’re totally exhausting. When I got home from work last night, the house had been verily overrun by persons sharing my genetic material. It was insane: aunts, uncles, cousins, even a brother – they were all over the place. We ate on the patio. There was a bucket of […]
In which there’s software and hardware and stuff. Today I updated three WordPress installations on my web server. And then I updated a bunch of WP plug-ins. And then I updated Mint, my stats app. And then I installed some Peppers. And then I ate Mexican food, because I didn’t get up early enough this […]
