As the party goes ...

I've become addicted to a tv show. This wouldn't be such a big deal were it not for the fact that I've avoided putting rabbit ears on my tv because I don't want to have it broadcasting in my house. Yet, here I am addicted to Lost. I thank BlackLodge Video for this. Every time I see the Bad Robot...

I got my early X-Mas present. A beautiful baby boy. Halk walker hound, (just like Cupid), and half weimaraner. He's black except for a little white stripe going down his chest and he's only nine weeks old. The problem is Cupid's reaction. The whole thought on getting a new puppy was that Cupid would have a playmate and we wouldn't have to worry about him...

My most recent excitements:

Got a new phone and phone service. Now that we're on a family plan we'll be saving a substantial amount of money. We didn't get the phones we were really wanting, but these are still really nifty.

I start work sometime next week. Excited and dreading.

My grandmother's x-mas present is wonderful. I've been working on this doily for the past...

Wow. Just got hired. I've been depressed as hell lately because no matter where I applied, nobody wanted me. Either they didn't call back or the position was filled already ... or it was Vector posing as a call center position and trying to scam me into selling knives door to door. I felt like crapola. Then I walk into the store that Randy and...

Roll Your Own:
I've now tried the Norwegian, London, Amsterdam and Danish tobaccos by Peter Stokkebye. Of them the only one I care for is the Danish blend. It has a mild clean taste and comes in my favorite fine cut. This is a pure tobacco, no stems or woodshavings to add to flavor and more importantly none of that musky roasted after-taste. Of the...

nullMy Wife the Hooker
Dedicated to all those men who found they have been
abandoned for a ball of yarn.

My wife , she is a hooker
Of this she's mighty proud
And the stories of her exploits
Are legends in our town.

She's shameless with her talents
She'll go hooking anywhere
And if people want to watch her
She really doesn't care.

It...

There are some few people that speak with music. The jukebox is their voice as they admit that others have formed the words in better ways than they ever could have. When drumming a couple can 'converse' with returning beats. The rhythm moves emotionally, evokes a response and carries the energy forward with increasing intensity. A jukebox war can be the same way. I participate...

I finally got the lazy weekend I wanted. By lazy I mean I wasn't entertaining anyone, (or cleaning up after them when they left), no major chores, (though gods know I needed to), and no where I had to be with one exception.

I went to church for the first time in fourteen years. I very much love my friends Jeff and Heather and whenever...

Got the yarn ... got the tunes ... got the coffee ... gonna rock this crocheting thang!

Apparently I've been tagged. Thanks delihound. Now I have to think of twenty things that might be interesting. Here it goes.

1. I play djembe, doumbec, piano, udu and am currently teaching myself to play guitar.
2. I enjoy sewing, crocheting, macrame and abhor scrap-booking and knitting for two very different reasons.
3. Though I had amazing private school english teachers I'm still a...

So, we bought a new car yesterday. A '03.5 Mazdaspeed Protege in metal fleck black. I'm having to relearn how to drive manual with the turbo, but holy crap is it fun. The interior is not as comfortable as the '98 240, but it's definitely a step up in the reliablility area. We were lucky enough to get a warrenty for another 48,000 miles and...

I'm excited about creating a mobile of these for a nephew of ours. I've also been ooh-ing and aah-ing over the idea of creating this beautiful coat. I'll probably have to postpone that project for another year, though.

One last thought for the day. Mmmm. Baba ghanouj rocks my tummy.
