the guy's a friend of a friend who fancies himself quite the hustler. ebay had been mentioned, so he may have a mind to cornhole someone's wallet. i'll get specifics and keep you abreast of my findings.
Why don't you come tell the SG world how much you love your new baby? How shiny she is and how hot she gets you? How we are lame and just call her MacBook Pro, because we're too wowed by her presence to give her a nickname?
Err.. so let's see. Yes, Steph sent me your way because she somehow saw that I was a fan of SG. I think it was one of those silly "Get to Know Me" email forward BS things where you had to include something about your favorite websites and she emailed me suggesting I look you up. We worked together about 10-ish years ago (I moved to Tempe about 5 years ago, grew up in Lawrence) and had a mutual friend and we all just kind of clicked. She's just really a great person! Another mutual friend of ours recently died of cancer so we sort of made this pact not to fall out of touch like we had.
spice apple, blue berry and lemon marangue. The Cherry was promised to another and they have no fear of large men in pinstripe suits weilding meat cleavers, they call them the curch deacons.
Okay, guys, I gave you all a whole day and a half, and practically none of you gave me my list. Fat Timmy and his brother Extra Fat Timmy are en route to your home (except you, Afshin).
Please don't get all Bambi-eyed about this. It's just a thing we have to do.
p.s. This hurts Fat Timmy more than it hurts you. He really... Read More
Subrosa started a freinds thread asking people to list what they are good at. It's such a great idea; I'd love to see you all list what you think you are good at.
Fat Timmy was just here and roughed me and the place up a bit.
So what am I good at? Hmmm.....
1) Seeing. Not just looking, but seeing.
1a) Contrast with bad at vision, especially in my right eye.
2) Synthesis. Arguably my only real skill. Some people call this "thinking outside the box". What box?
2a) Contrast with bad at rote linear thinking. Some people call that "stay within the lines." What damn lines?
3) Being a lazy-ass fuck-off.
3a) Contrast with being bad at being productive for it's own sake.
4) The great deception
4a) Contrast with being bad at being real. I suck at real.
5) Being depressed yet surviving (even thriving) (better living through chemistry!)
5a) Contrast with my being bad at Bobby Burns' "greatest giftie God can gie us"
6) Knowledge of bizarre and utterly useless arcana.
6a) Contrast with my being bad at knowledge necessary for ordinary day to day issues.
7) Superficial relationships.
7a) Contrast with my being bad at deep emotional contact. Way beyond bad. Far far far beyond bad.
8) Living in the past.
8a) Contrast with my total suckitude at living in the moment.
9) Dealing with inanimate objects in the absence of a user's manual.
9a) Contrast with being utterly lost in dealing with most people (doesn't anyone come with a user's manual????)
10) Commiting to too much shit -- I'm good at being bad at saying "no".
10a) Contrast with being really bad at actually getting everything I committed to done.

Why I ain't update?
Work is cuh-razy (and draining), I have a little sack full of personal misery I can't let go of, I miss my mom, and what free time is left after the dumb stuff I just want to spend with Sophie... Read More
Thanks, dude! It was a blast to shoot (albeit a chilly one!), and the editing was pretty easy. Helps to have great subject matter -- both Brixton and the boiler from hell.
Allrighty. I got the three most pressing of my recent dilemmas dressed as opportunities sorted out, I've pushed my client's shrill complaining to the rear of my mind for the nonce, and am enjoying a basketfull of clean laundry, a tasty hefe-weizen, a 91-degree spring day and a fan.
Fuck yes.

Good luck with your plan to take May off. Hope it works out. Meawhile I've gotten two friends who've told me about great job opportunities in their companies. **sigh** I guess I need to start thinking about working again. Eventually.
And I agree 100% on the conga player
I watch Paraguay games, but that's mainly because I have a huge crush on Roque, and I also like Spain, but, truly I'm fanatical for Delgado + family.
