You Guys...
First night in a while where I got to sit down at my desk, put on some Pandora radio like it’s 200-fucking-9, kick back and read tumblr.
And let me tell you.
You are all hilarious, hilarious bitches, and I love you.

Dreams really can come true!
More than two years ago, I made a little wish. (I can’t claim to be the first, of course, but let’s pretend like I was.)
And tonight I learned that the genius who is Jeremy Cutler, aka the brains behind the ever-brilliant Missing e, has officially made my dream come true has informed me that, whoa, this feature is now a real thing!
For a non-programmer end-user blogger, this seems...

Google Doodles →
To remind myself that Google does a perfectly fine job of archiving and making their doodles available to ogle at any time. Because honestly, I was kinda kicking myself for the small folder on my computer that housed all those screencaps I took of them, then ignored until they were forgotten and wondered “What’s in this here folder, hmmm?”

GEEKED THE @#$^% OUT
I *finally* made the upgrade on my computer from 2 gb of RAM to 4. And now it’s all “LOOK WHAT I CAN DO! LOOK WHAT I CAN DO!”

Missing e is awesome.
I figure that’s an apt title for the following list of exclamation points for my Friday.
I had the day off today!
We had our first ever guest over for lunch!
I made delicious stir fry veggies and chicken!
We drank local wine with lunch!
Then had a dessert of ice cream with toasted almonds and drizzled with chocolate cabernet wine sauce!
Alas, I forgot to take pictures!
Forgetful food...

Like Magic
Go out in search of a nearby recycling center…
…And discover there’s a full-blown WINERY—with rows upon rows of grapes—in your neck of the woods.
Translation: Today was awesome.

Story of My Life (Meaning I heard this SO MANY...
Uncle: You know [NAME]?
Mom: Yeah.
Uncle (giggling): He's *gay*!
Mom: Yep.
Uncle (surprised tone): He's actually a pretty good guy.
Me: *facepalm*
So about today...
It might have involved me wearing some antlers because my partner thought they blended in perfectly with my hair.
It might have involved making some corn bread.
It might have involved a sadly not-so-competitive game of Dreidel.
It might have involved a whole bunch of cleaning, to the point that Robert’s old apartment is now fully clean and keys are ready to be returned.
It might have...

Where's Phil?
(A clever spin on “Where’s Waldo?”)
Is he in California?
Maybe in San Diego for a convention?
Or perhaps driving for two days?
And ending up in New Mexico?
Or maybe all of the above?
Yes, yes, all of the above.
And it is crazy indeed.

McSweeney’s Internet Tendency: Attention... →
Good morning ladies and gentlemen, and welcome aboard Amtrak 2155 providing service to New York City, Philadelphia, and Washington DC. I apologize for the delay; we are currently experiencing significant existential strife as indicated by the soft wailing of the train’s wheels as they are forced once more into another day of mindless repetition. We hope to be moving shortly.
I’ve loved...

Sometimes things pop up that make me laugh inordinately hard. Those things seem to get funnier every time, too. Last week, it was Stephen Colbert chowing down some “kibble” during “The Word” about a Purina ad for dogs.

Dearest Tumblr.
I come here to get away from facebook, not to integrate better with it. Take that damn yellow strip away from my dashboard ASAP, if you please.
You’re a peach if you do.

Success, Sort Of
In my quest to become more minimal in life, over the summer I tossed all the jewel cases from my CDs and put them in red boxes.
Over the last few days, I’ve finally done the same for my DVDs.
While I like how much that reduces clutter, and I like how much easier it will make my upcoming move, I realized I’m now missing something.
My DVD carousel is now empty. And along with that...
Thoughts from a sick day when I'm actually sick.
Ugh.
Today sucks.
Ohai Tumblr.
Heart things.
Tumblr seriously needs to expand the “J” and “K” scrolling features to include “L” which would heart the posts.
Maybe TJ could help?
Or maybe Jeremy Cutler of Missing e?
Though I’m guessing a user can’t add that sort of function. What little I know of web development (outside Wordpress) makes me...

Fuck Cancer.
It’s been a hell of a day. And I needed to say those two words. Sometimes my job is hard, and people I work with, and come to really care about in a very brief span of time, take leave of this place. And it sucks, big time.

Miscellany
I ground some coffee beans into a delicious morning beverage today.
After hemming and hawing *forever* about it, I downloaded a free trial of Scrivener. I’m only working through the “tutorial” right now but I already love it.
I bought a proper panini pan last week to replace my electric one that was okay but an absolute bitch to keep clean.
I used said panini pan this morning...
