She called. My ex, Vette, the "last" one for these five or so years, called just before I was going to hit the trail and spend the day biking around. I mentioned in the last blog that she'd e-mailed me looking for my number, and I'd had the feeling that there was more to it than just having my name on her contact list, and...

I haven't slept much the past few nights. If I seem testy, it's because I keep waking up every couple hours during the night from bad nightmares. I don't know what's up. New apartment, I guess, maybe?
Things seem kinda bittersweet lately. I got to start my new gaming thing, but Nathan didn't show up, didn't inform me in advance, and hasn't responded to calls...

Have you gotten the Obama text message yet? hahaha They are really hamming it up with the whole VP thing.

You describe yourself as a " stick in the mud". I'I love the phrase " stick in the mud". In my mind, I always imagine the stick stuck in the mud vertically, pointing upwards. I wonder if others picture the stick just lying in the mud horizontally.
These are the things I wonder.
P.S. Check out my SG hopeful set and help me , dare I say it, rule the world! Or at least become a SG.

I got a new phone today... but here's the catch: the old one was so ancient that it stored nothing on the SIM card. The guy at the T-Mobile store was astounded that that old brick Nokia had survived that long. He didn't even try to sell me insurance: He could tell I take care of stuff.
Anyway, without being able to use the screen...

Damn you, St. Paul! Your twisty streets and inscruitable motivations led me to have the first serious bike crash I've had in 15 years (granted I just started biking again for the first time in 12 years a couple months ago).

Finally, internet!
I'm a fucking idiot. So there I was last saturday, tired from moving (I was up from 6 AM to 4 AM on Friday. I just wanted to sit back and watch a movie with Asia Argento in it, so I went to the 10 PM show of The Last Mistress at the Lagoon. I don't know if you know about Catherine Breillat...

Fear not, my good man. Alas, we've all made such mis-steps, and looked back, realizing the she was probably interested. We all get our signals crossed occasionally. Just pretend that she was actually a crazed axe murderer and you avoided a nasty engagement. See? All better.
*Hands up, quieting the applause*
Please, please. No need to thank me. Just doing my job. Healer of emotional distress. The Doctor is in the hizou!

Okay, you gotta help me. I'm trying to procrastinate doing the rest of my packing for my move tomorrow. I know, I'm just moving down the block, no biggie... it's just the first time that I hired movers to help me. Quite frankly, I'm feeling too old to just round up the friends for a moving party. That's kinda a college thing to do, and...

Yes, I am a gamer nerd.
I tossed out an e-mail with invites to the tabletop RPG that I hope to start next month. The ruleset will be Monte Cook's World of Darkness. The setting will be post-apocalyptic Minneapolis. The characters will be... well, effectively copies of the players that sign up; I'm doing an "avatar" game where players play themselves, but themselves possessed...

God damn it's hot out.
Just got back from riding my bike home from work, and if I can say one thing about the ridiculous heat: The ladies, they don't wear much when it's this warm.
I've half a mind to go down to Lake Calhoun and "read a book" at the beach.
Psst Drac, you're holding the book upside down.
Shut up! I'm just...

Just seems like if it isn't one thing isn't another. It's like I always have this cloud of disaster following me wherever I go I swear. I think even my tarot cards are scared of me touching them.
Ah, the last day of CONvergence. The fragrent aura of shame from those who did too much and the bitter scent of regret from the people who didn't do enough over the weekend. The last day is ruled by people dismantling their parties (and believe me, we have become experts at tearing down Dystopia over the years, we were out of there in probably two...

I thought those barcode tattoos said 'dystpoia'... I didn't actually make it to CON, but I went to a buddy's birthday party at the TGI Fridays right there, and it seemed that every single person there from CON had that damn tattoo... they made it around quite a bit!
Well, I'm off to Convergence. What is in store for us this year? Hard to say. I do know that we're going to kick some ass running Dystopia. I predict: boozing, gaming, maybe a little flirting, and metric fucktons of forgetting about troubles for awhile.
