- FYI, this is not me: – I don’t ride the CUE bus.
- That’s from PostSecret, of course. I recognize the exact place where that photo was taken. But yeah, totally was not sent by me, I don’t ride the CUE!
- Watching Intervention; lady is praying for her son to get better. It’s not working, she’s breaking down. Newsflash: PRAYING ISN’T ENOUGH.
- I can’t help watching Intervention. I used to watch it for personal reasons, I think now I just watch it for the same reason I watch Cops occasionally. Watching car wrecks and being glad my life isn’t like that. And, in some cases, Intervention reminds me how easy it is to slip and fall…there are honor students, beloved wifes and mothers, etc. And it just happens that they fall into addiction. Never feel like you’re safe, be grateful for each day…that’s what I learn from watching Intervention. But that episode was tough, this lady was so upset that her prayer wasn’t working. She wanted so much for God to fix her son, and she didn’t understand why it wasn’t working.
- My father in law reports they are getting a $25,000 refund this year. What I could do with that!!
- Let’s see…finish my education, travel, buy a car, so many things. Unfortunately my in-laws are getting it due to massive amounts of medical work (partially elective, heh) and massive amounts of losses in the financial crashingnesses.
- You know, the EPA-East building at 11th and Constitution is really quite beautiful. #
- I found some pictures. is the view that prompted me to post, but there’s also lovely view, and .
- all hail @ whose blog “One Sentence” just won the bloggie for Best Microblog!!
- I just gotta give another shoutout for ! I’ve known since the first Blogathon many years ago and I am tickled that he won a Bloggie, the most prestigious web award out there – it’s no Tony or Emmy, but it’s the blog equivalent!
- Google Reader is the best app for blogs, eh? More so than WordPress? Guess I should check it out.
- I’m now using it as my primary blog reader. I decided to just make the switch and ditch Bloglines and head over there. After doing the OPML export and importing it into Google Reader, I deleted everything from Bloglines so now I’m switched. Can people see when I star stuff, though?
- Dissing Polaroid some more, this time on sellout.woot message boards. Because “hard drive failure?? ^_^” is NOT an acceptable error message.
- Check out my review of the Polaroid Juke Jam .
- Oh god, I made the mistake of conversing with a guy who thinks he can sign. Nothing is more sobering and terrifying than that.
- This was at Monday night showtunes. It was pretty funny now that I look back on it. My friends were cracking up and I was occasionally throwing out signs begging them for help. Of course the guy didn’t notice at all because he had skills of about an ASL 3 or 4 student, nothing approaching fluency, despite claiming to have a bachelor’s in ASL and being an interpreter etc. The guy was clueless!
- There’s a plaque on a rock next to the Old Canal House. It’s just a rock, but it gets a plaque! #
- There’s so many little things around DC that are worth noting. The Old Canal House I’m referring to is located (that is an awesome site for finding out more about all the little interesting things in DC!) and you can read more about it in the first item . Of course it shouldn’t be confused with the . But anyway, one of these days I will have to go check out this little adjacent rock and see what its plaque is about.
- Just saw a politician exit the Hart building. Recognize but can’t put a name to. Flabby face, greasy hair…doesn’t help? Damn. #
- So unfortunately, the only politician I have seen and recognized remains Newt Gingrich, because you cannot mistake that face.
- RT @ what’s wrong with the new facebook
- My eyes are bugging out. “We should protect ourselves by avoiding temptations of the flesh.” “Condoms promote promiscuity”
- What on earth is this??
- UChicago vs Westboro Baptist Church: GO FRAT BOYS! #
- Ah, a new device is now online in my network. Looks like my father-in-law just got his new Roku Netflix player hooked up.
- Unfortunately it turns out they don’t have captions…and there doesn’t seem to be any movement on adding it.
- Just booked flight and car from Honolulu to Kona 4/25/09 – we’re going to see a live volcano! Just a one day trip. So cool.
- Our flight from Honolulu takes off at 9:10am and our flight back from Kona lands at 9:10pm. In between we will go to Hawaii Volcano National Park! We are going to rent a car to drive around the park, and that way we’ll be able to grab some food easily. It’s going to be a total of $250 for both of our air tickets and the rental car, which is much better than the $250/person for the you can get.
- As fried macaroni and cheese is to the world of traditional appetizers, so is The Blowguard to sex toys.
- Is anybody familiar with – I worry about security with universal password safes, but it could be useful.
- 80% great night. Great tapas, GREAT sangria, great #Rita’s ice, great Dollhouse, great snuggling. Not great: $100 parking ticket. My fault!
- I have stuffed myself full of an entire package of Tofurkey lunchmeat. That oughta satisfy the fake meat craving for a day or two.
- Yeah, um, that has had some other effects too. Oh my. But it was SO GOOD. Tofurkey is definitely the best lunchmeat. Yves is good and cheaper and in more regular stores but Tofurkey is so much tastier.

- Sweet, the sweater I’m making is now a poncho, I feel I have accomplished something even if it has no sleeves or sides yet.
- Oh man, “Castle” is BAD tv. Not even guilty pleasure, just bad. Role was practically written for Fillion, but by a team of 75 chimps.
- Watched it on ABC.com – so bad. I can’t even bring myself to watch the second episode. And the “captions” on that site are just utterly worthless.
