In which I’m blogging because I’m not scrolling Twitter. TWITTER: I waste a remarkable amount of time on Twitter. Used to enjoy it, but now it’s more a habit than a pleasure. Sometimes it’s fun, still, and there are quasi-meaningful interactions with other users, but most of it’s just crap: the absurdity that is the […]
In which a favorite author has died. Several writers have said today that they think they’d have been afraid to meet Harlan Ellison. Well, I’m not a writer, so I guess I don’t have a writer’s fear of having my work critiqued by Harlan goddamned Ellison, but I’ve been around smart, mouthy men, and if […]
In which there’s, uh, random stuff. Kitchen sink’s been filling up with water from the pipes, so I haven’t done dishes in days. Plumber’s coming tomorrow to fix it, but then I’ll have to do the dishes. Already cleared out the cupboard under the sink, so the visit shouldn’t be too terrible. Leaving for DC […]
In which there’s a blog post! ABOUT NOTHING. It’s late May. The air conditioner’s been in for a week. There was a thunderstorm earlier and the power flickered but didn’t go out, so, sadly, I had to keep working ’til the end of my shift. It was fairly slow and I didn’t get skilled for […]
In which there’s some perspective. Oil is in everything. Oil is in every single thing you ever use, touch, or buy. How does food get to the store or farmer’s market? In trucks that are running on gas. How do you carry your food home? In plastic bags. How do you store your leftovers? In […]
In which I am the epitome of non-productivity. Had a pick-up gig last night; apparently someone in Junkyard Jane was sick so we did their Ice Harbor Brewery show for them at the last minute. Great crowd, nice vibe. Free dinner! Here’s Rob, me, Luther, and Kit: Today I’m a bit hung over. I don’t […]
In which I haven’t posted in a month! I’m alive, I love my new job, my trip to Seattle to see Amma was wonderful. Someday I’ll write a real post. I promise.
In which I haven’t posted in over a month so I’m just gonna spew some utterly boring crap into a CMS interface and publish it. Oh, not much. You? Well the usual. Some gigs and stuff. Work, a lot of time fucking off in IRC with kids, some time visiting with friends – mostly the […]
In which I blog more because it’s time than because I have anything to say. I got my hair cut and colored after work Thursday night. It’s got honey blonde highlights and medium brown lowlights and it’s been cut into layers and it feels great. I also got the shit waxed out of what had […]
In which I have a metric fuckton of time, but still feel like I’m too busy to blog. I survived the Morgan family reunion last weekend, which was, in essence, five days of drinking like a fish bookended with two six-hour trips on Greyhound buses with my brother. Apropos of nothing: THIS IS AN AMAZING […]
