Saturday, October 20th, 2007Okay, so after my nearly 10 hours of sleep (for which I am beyond grateful) I woke up to the headline that *gasp* Dumbledore was gay.
I can only imagine what the outcry is going to be. Personally, I don’t care - I think it’s brilliant and it explains a lot, but the people who are [...]
The Fun in Funeral
Saturday, October 20th, 2007I should have entitled this blog entry “The Law of Unintended Consequences”. The third episode of Pushing Daisies, The Fun in Funeral, is all about what happens as a result of decisions.
Back in episode I, Pie-lette, you’ll recall that Ned decided not to re-dead Chuck and that the Funeral Director, Lawrence Schatz, kicked it [...]
I Would Say That It’s My Friday…
Thursday, October 18th, 2007But I’m actually working tomorrow night since I took Monday night due to being sick.
Which means 10 straight days of working.
I’m happy for the money, of course, but I’ll be glad to have some down time when it gets here. I got home this morning and felt like I was going to have a super, [...]
People Can Be So Utterly Ridiculous
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007One of the things I really despise about Americans (in general, of course) is that we seem to get all offended about the stupidest shit and play the race card when it so obviously plays no role. Thanks to an over-indulgence in political correctness we have essentially become a country of victims.
Now a Halloween decoration [...]
Thinking Outside the Box
Monday, October 15th, 2007Since I don’t drink alcohol save for the very rarest of occasions when I dip into other people’s drinks for a taste, I don’t have much use for alcoholic beverages and have always thought self-medicating (be it with alcohol or other substances) to cope with whatever pressures of life I have is ridiculous (even though [...]
Dummy
Friday, October 12th, 2007In this week’s episode of Pushing Daisies, our young hero, Ned, discovers more about his talent after he is pawned off on an unsuspecting prep school by his father after his mother’s death. I never had to dissect frogs in Biology class (thank God) but I can say with some certainty that I would [...]
Crazy (and Sometimes Scary) Internet Love
Friday, October 12th, 2007I’m exhausted and spending my one night off catching up on TV shows and making food to last me until my next day off.
And it’s also time for the next installment of MHoF.
This one comes to us via one Josh Olson who, you may or may not know, wrote the screenplay for A History of [...]
Decisions, Decisions
Wednesday, October 10th, 2007Lately I’ve been thinking about a new laptop - My Sony Vaio is three years old and starting to do some funky stuff. Not enough for it to be a problem yet, but since all my writing and stuff is on here (with virtually no back up - to quote Ned from Pushing Daisies, “That’s [...]
Personal Responsibility
Tuesday, October 9th, 2007Damn, I’m tired today. I had to lock Dorian Gray out of my room when I went to sleep this morning because he was on a terror kick (which involves bolting from room to room, and when it involves my bedroom, racing across the bed and, as par for the course, racing across me, [...]
It’s Been a While
Monday, October 8th, 2007Due to switching over to the night shift and not sleeping as well as I probably should, I haven’t had a good screwed-up dream in a while.
Until yesterday.
My routine as of late is to come home around 6am, check my email, go to bed around 6:30, back up around 11:30, then back for another couple [...]
