There's ostensibly been a bug in the billing server, whereby defunct accounts from way back got accidental gift accounts. Whatever the reason, I like that you're back.
My computer's motherboard fried itself. They can't even fix it at the Apple Store this time. It's gone probably until next week. I have to hijack other people's computers and get what I can, like now. Much sadness abounds.
Things that irritate or flat-out piss me off. See if you can guess which ones apply to my life right now.
-People who drive all over the fucking parking lot looking for a spot close to the store. Just take a spot and walk. No need to hold up traffic waiting for someone to back out when you could already be in the store if... Read More
I really don't do surveys at all, but I didn't want to leave the birthday thing out. Plus I am apparently supposed to do one since other people decide these things, something I did not know.
Whatever.
Seven things I want to do before I die:
1) Write a book that is published.
2) Travel too many portions of Europe to list here (other areas... Read More

You are so amusing...I came by to post a pic of the person before me or whatever and got a) excited by your life in hell profile pic, and b) enthralled by you pics folder. Ummm, wha was I doing?..
And that death metal birth announcement is the funniest thing I have seen all day
Okay, so here's the thing. There are all these movies wherein there's some geeky guy and he lusts after a hot woman. And he never has the courage to talk to her or something. And then at the end of the story, he gets the hot woman, who turns out to be really nice.

I don't normally pop-off way outside the margins of a Threads focus; I guess I slept badly last night.
I think The Baxter played pretty well with romance-movie conventions of another sort- wondering what happens to all those guys who are stood up at the end of romantic movies for the heroes of same movies. I believe it made about $13 at the box office, not counting my ticket, of course.

I think I found it by clicking on a friend of a friend of a friends page. I do that sort of thing, since I dont have any friends of my own (I think I need to go change my underwear to cheer myself up :-)
Drama is our middle name...like dramamine. I guess that would be a first name, actually.
