Punday Night & Still Too Damn Busy

Monday, December 31st, 2007

     ‘ve actually devoted a considerable amount of time to writing these last few days. I may be cooking up a story idea — I’m not sure yet. It’s kind of like having someone drop you an anonymous, beautifully-wrapped present. You go, “Oooh, shiny. I wonder what’s in there!” and you poke at it and prod [...]

Too Damn Busy . . .

Friday, December 28th, 2007

     . . . or a real post, that is. Bah. I need a job where I sit at a computer all day, so I can just blog whenever I want to. Anyways, instead of thoughtful, amusing commentary from me, enjoy some thoughtful, amusing commentary from Mark Day.

Christmas

Wednesday, December 26th, 2007

     hristmas is over for another year, and I have to say that, while I had a great Christmas, man, am I glad it’s over. Now, lunacy levels can begin to subside to something a little more normal. People were apeshit crazy this year. I have to get out of customer service — you people are [...]

Movies

Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

      am officially on pins and needles for both Iron Man and Hellboy II: the Golden Army. I must admit, I’m mostly fan-girling over Hellboy, though. I mean, the Iron Man trailer rocks and all, and I love me some Robert Downey Jr, but, you know. Hellboy. Ron Perlman. Ron Perlman as a huge, crabby, [...]

Bits & Pieces

Tuesday, December 18th, 2007

     irst, I just want to pimp my new Cthulhu shirt, mostly because it was a bitch to draw. Smiley-faced Cthulhu? Not as easy as you might think.
     And now, for odd bits of coolness. Jet From Supermassive Black Hole Seen Blasting Neighboring Galaxy — A jet of highly charged radiation from a supermassive black hole at [...]

Candidates

Monday, December 17th, 2007

      had intended to be quite witty and intelligent this morning, to make up for my long weekend of silence here (been busy!). However, I’m pretty groggy and worn out, and also my sinuses are packed full, and I’ve pulled most of the muscles in my back and legs crawling around the restaurant doing health [...]

Wednesday Riddles

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

      had intended for there to be actual content to accompany today’s riddles, but sadly, there was some Urban Dead that needed playing, a house needing cleaned, two dogs that wanted to rough-house and fetch, and that’s not to mention all the crap I need to go do now. Almost all that starts with “Christmas” [...]

Getting My Rant On.

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

      am an atheist for a variety of reasons, all of which culminate in the fact that when it comes to religion, I don’t need it, I don’t want it, and I don’t believe in it. I don’t believe in gods or goddesses, spirits, UFOs, Big Foot (I do believe in Squatches, because one of [...]

Tall Tale Tuesday: Carnival Bits

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

     r. James has suffered an unfortunate computer melt-down — literally, melted down — and is so unable to write for a bit. The good Doctor is also limited in his computer time. Squatch and the others aren’t the most prolific of our writing crew. Which leaves poor, sad, busy me. Hey, I’m doing my best [...]
