It's Derek's Birthday! And in honor of this occasion, I'd like to link this. HOOray BEER!" Most of you have heard me scream this randomly, but up to this point have had absolutely no clue why I was yelling it in a crowded restaurant/party/parents' home/etc. Enjoy, j.s. |

Oh...my...God. They told me this day would come...and so it has... I got a flyer in the mail for none other than... My 10 year high school reunion. **shakes head sadly** My dream from last night makes so much more sense now... Well, no, it doesn't...but the setting makes more sense. And it gets so much worse...the names of the people who are running this little soiree are: Jenni Turner Woodward (If there is a God in heaven she will have married BOB Woodward) Aaron Scott Ryan Lueders Josh Stone Yeah, okay, so I really did not need that Varsity Blues casting call this early in the morning...I mean, I was up by 9 today, so I was in rough shape as it was...now I'm going to have to double up on my cafe au laits just to tether myself to normalcy for the rest of the day. You know, now that I think about it, there is only one person [that I know of] who reads this site that is going to be able to make any sense out of that list. Coincidentally, she is also the only person on Earth who could somehow convince me to go to a KHS reunion. And only then by promising that I'll be allowed to make fun of lots, and lots of people, and thus pulling the stick back on the irrecoverable dive of suckulence that would otherwise be that convention of the conventional, and levelling it out to a healthy altitude of superiority and vindication. The word of the day is schadenfreude. So, through bared, gritting teeth, I shakily tap in their little website address... The dreaded questionnaire. Sweet...Jesus. 1. What is your spouses name? Sigh...I sense a multitude of N/As arriving in my very near future. 2. Was your spouse an alumni? And isn't that just oh...so......precious? (vitriol dripping from my mouth is chemical burning little holes through the desk) 3. How many children do you have? THAT'S IT! I have two-point-three you chirping, Blueprint of Happiness subscribing, lemming fucks. And I promptly leave the website. I'll go back to finish it I'm sure...but this was all just too much at once. I need a schmoke and a coffee...and anyone know where I might be able to find a gallon of liquid ecstasy sparkling fruit punch? Buh'bye. j.s. |

Happy Cinco de Mayo I celebrate Mexican independence by playing EQ for a couple hours after work. What do you do? You know, I suppose I should be working harder to find people to hang out with now that I am "permanently" back in Houston...but I'm not exactly sure how one goes about doing this. I mean, I'm not going to bars by myself...that's just plain weird. (There's always that guy who sits alone at the bar and tries to start up random conversations with people as they order drinks...I don't even want to be mistaken as possibly being him.) My schedule is too random to permit any kind of coffee shop regularity. How do people meet people anyway? Oh, I am seriously considering buying a boat. A Laser to be specific. They hold races every Wednesday night on Clear Lake which sounds like a damn good time to me. And I would therefore be able to hang out with folks with at least ONE thing in common with me. Which is great and all...but really it's just been far, far too long since I've been sailing. Besides, isn't that what getting a normal job is all about? Making large purchases so as to make the life you don't spend in an office slightly more full of...erm...life? Not that I have any shortage of things that require my fiscal attention that is...I was beginning to compile a list of things earlier today and it's getting ridiculous. My car registration, (it expired in July of 2002, I got a ticket for it on Fri.) car payment, credit card bill, getting the car fixed, (it overheats now, remember?) a new cell phone, (the antenna broke on it and I now have to repeatedly Krazy Glue it back into place) a plane ticket to NYC the first week in June, ( =] ) my summer wardrobe, a ticket to Italy to see a friend from Utah, etc., etc. I think I've already spent my first 20k. And none of this includes buying a new car. The RX-8 (Hehehe, I love the picture on that splash page...it looks like that little red car is so happy...) Sigh, yes it seems I'm beginning to get over my Mini obsession. This is partly due to their already being tons of them on the road here, and mostly attributable to the fact that they're getting ridiculously overpriced. A 2004 Mini Cooper S Works will run about $27,000. A 350Z starts at 28...I mean, c'mon guys... All right, I'm calling it a night. It's before 2 a.m. and I'm actually feeling a bit tired...have to jump on these nights when they come along (which is not that often for me) so as to attempt to further my shift to a normal person schedule. G'night everyone, j.s. |
