Performance Review are the worst two words* in the English language when used together in that order. I'm having my turn with those very vile words this week. My stress level is through the fucking roof. I suppose it doesn't help either that the person conducting the review and I are mortal enemies. You don't think that'll effect things, right?

Sat in line at the...

It was high time for a name change, as Rich Valco was not exactly my first choice but apparently I Want to Decapitate Fred Durst and His Family exceeded the character limit. And what a shame it was too, because it was such an apropos sentiment.

No, I think that this suits me just fine, as huge a mark for Vincent Price as I am....

How was my New Years? Well, it's a quarter to one in the morning on the first of January and I'm getting ready for bed. You do the math.

I tried going to sleep but I just layed awake and stared at the ceiling while my upstairs neighbors fucked the shit out of one another.

Oh well, at least the mystery channel is having a...

Xmas went by without much incident (aside from the aforementioned argument). I think I gave as good as I got. At least I hope that's the general consensus.

Ended the night on a dare. My brother bet me that I couldn't chug a bowl of holiday punch, which for the uninformed is really just a carton of rainbow sherbet ice cream in a couple of...

It's just not Christmas until one member of my family tells another to choke on shit. I'm glad that's out of the way, I was starting to get worried.

I had a bit of a scare recently involving my health. Ive been having these really intense headaches which by themselves are bad enough but still not particularly worthy of alarm. It was the bright pulsating patterns that appeared in my vision, nausea, nosebleeds and short term blindness and memory loss that got me a little worried. All these things considered, I was still scared...

Weekend a total bust. Should have worked on the car but hadn't the motivation. Need to get those tabs renewed because they've been expired since October. I don't want to be one of those people. Luckily our resident quack, Tim Eyman, has gotten all of our car tabs lowered to a flat-rate. It's a good thing for those of you who hate driving on smooth...

So in the spirit of sharing, here's an ugly truth about myself: I tend to measure my success against other people's failure. There, I said it. I kind of liken it to skipping out on all the assignments in class and just doing the extra credit because as we all know, the extra credit is way easier. The more people fail, the better I feel...

Well, it is nearly Christmas and my Halloween decorations are still up. I thought about telling people that we are going for a Dickensian motif what with the stone block wallpaper and the gargoyles and gothic lanterns, but the decapitated head fountain on the dining room table is a dead giveaway.

I'm finally getting the better of this cold. I was actually able to finish...

This life sucks my ass. Where's my fucking restart button?!

It is in these trying times that I recall the timeless wisdom of one Stanley Spadowski when he uttered these prophetic words...

"Life is like a mop. Sometimes life gets full of dirt and crud and hairballs and things and you gotta clean it out. You gotta stick it in here and rinse it off...
