the only thing that sucks about living alone is that there is nobody here to feel my forehead and tell me if it’s hot. #sickandwhiny

When we last left off, I had just barely made it out of the suffering embarrassment of my horrible musical taste from ages birth to about 20. Now we begin anew as I slowly start to develop good…

Why you will always beat me at Scrabble: I’ll play the “good” word over the word with more points every single time.
My friend Adam is borrowing Ruby to move a bed. He handed me his keys in case I need to go anywhere. “It’s Sunday, I don’t go,” I said.
Superman comic books + spot in the sun + thin mints + Blitzen Trapper = afternoon.
I know this is a lot of pot calling the kettle, but today the Internet’s narcissism makes me want to punch it in the throat.
annoying my family by pointing out their inability to separate fiction from non-fiction
Listening to Slade’s Run Runaway reminds me of being 14 and playing pinball at Capones. I spent more money on the jukebox than the game.

Arguing with a friend from college and a current co-worker about the awesomeness of Bret Michaels’ impending memoir. I love you, Internet.
Evangeline, my iPod, has been on shuffle all day. So far it has played three tracks from Kenny Rogers’ Greatest Hits. Not a complaint.

It’s Flannery O’Connor’s birthday. The least you can do is go read A Good Man is Hard to find: http://tinyurl.com/24msay
“Hey, don’t stand on that chair. Come here and stand on the table instead.” That’s the kind of babysitter I am.
Tibbles have now lined folding chairs in front of the coffee table for a morning matinee of Sky High (the 9.382nd time we’ve seen it)
The Tibbles (all 3 of them) are playing chess. It involves a lot of jumping over pieces and rules I’ve never heard of.
my web host has been down most of the night leaving me to wonder how I spent my time before I started blogging
The Nerdery, where I work, helped Fallon (a local ad agency) build this kickass Life Streaming twitter/facebook thing, check it: http:// …
Or you can check that thing that I just posted about here: http://www.fallon.com/skimmer
i’ve had a steady stream of Men at Work’s greatest hits running through my head since I woke up this morning
AC Newman’s cover “take me on” is really working for me at the moment

So I got tagged by this total doofus to do a Facebook meme. Since it’s Sunday night and I’ve spent most of the day reading or writing, I’m a little strapped for subject matter. Hence acquiescing…
Dear insistent Googler, Jodi Chromey is not a lesbian. Sorry to disappoint. Love, Me

the sunshine bores the daylights out of me

Trying to convince the Tibbles that Johnny Cash sings “Who’s Johnny.” They are not having any of my nonsense.
Liam is offering up a color commentary about Spongebob. I have no idea what he’s talking about
It makes me sad that my work twitter is 83% cooler than my personal twitter
If Disney’s guide to cuteness translated to adults of today, I’d be the the cutest thing ever! http://tinyurl.com/ck3qfu
