My Brother brought over a package for me that he signed for yesterday… It’s invader zim! 32 episodes of tasty, freaky, Zimmy goodness. Thanks dcl! Coolio Labels, too. I look forward to watching them with much pleasure. I’ll get to learn how my DVD drive deals with VCDS.

Newt’s taken to giving me a pre-dawn wakeup call again. I need to find his settings, and adjust him to “one hour after dawn, or so”. At least I’ve found his snooze button… soft fuzzy underbelly.

Fun fact – French are born with tails, which are later removed.

Word of the day – fumbuckery. (I dig spoonerisms.) It describes the functionality of midday meetings.

I want to make homemade ice cream by rolling a bucket back and forth to my sweetie. Strawberry, maybe.

Chuck E. Cheese can cause nostalgia, and nightmares. I tend to side with Mr. Munch.

If you think your pregnancy test should be private, wait until you read this. The new Florida adoption law says that if you don’t know the father of your baby and you want to let someone adopt the baby, you have to list all the possible fathers of your child in the newspaper.

When background searches fail to locate the birth father, the mother must place legal notices about the adoption in a local newspaper where the child was conceived.

In the notice, the mother must list her name, describe herself, name or describe the possible father or fathers and list the date and the city or county of conception.

late-night tv

weird.. I can’t sleep, turn on the TV, and see ana voog talking to an ex boyfriend Chris (who was not talking to her because she’d been nude on cam), and LiveJournal is getting a mention… sally jessy raphael. the topic was “boyfriend, I’m a stripper, deal with it”…

sort of odd to catch both ana and a LJ mention at 2:45 in the morning. out of left field. I poke my nose in ana’s journal and it turns out that it was a set up… It was ana that pointed me to LiveJournal way back a few years ago… well, she handled herself much better than when she was on vibe a few years back. Creepy psych guy making snap judgments, and Ana telling him that he’s making cruel and misinformed judgments. (I agree with ana on that one.)

“El Dorado” discovered in Peruvian Amazon, explorers claim

Hmmm.. they’ll discover Belgium, next.

back to bed! nigh nigh, dear journal!

Hearing my sweetheart laugh is a wonderful, wonderful thing.

Fox’s “hidden camera” show is fantastic, too by the way.. if anything, it’s too short. They need to put on two-hour specials.

Relaxing now, unwinding before heading off to sleep.

Puttering around the web…

Licensed variants of Monopoly. In Monopoly, you buy properties and then charge people increasingly exorbitant amounts of money when they stay there. As board games go, it’s a workable metaphor. It doesn’t apply to everything though. I mean, you can’t build a hotel on Bulbasaur. It just doesn’t work.

True porn clerk stories… I wonder if christin can relate? This is an utterly fascinating journal about working in a porn shop. The author stays away from the usual “my wacky job” clichés, and instead writes with great humor and insight about not only the unusual customers and politics of renting porn, but also about the effects on herself, and how the experience has changed her. It’s a long set of entries, all remarkable and entertaining.

the Phobia list.

The Ace Doubles Paperback Image Library – ignore the ugly website design and savor the art of cheezy vintage paperbacks. Great illustrations, nifty titles, breathless story descriptions, crazy hand lettering … it’s all there.

100 Years of Jell-O ads.

nighty-night dear journal.

punquin just found this post… it’s only well over two years old. 🙂 I think it was one of the first “get to know me” memes to circulate around the LJs. It’s interesting… not all of those items are true anymore, but *most* are.

Newt’s taken to curling up in the bathroom sink…it’s just the right depth and radius to hold him in a little bowl-hug. The downside is that he’s such a sweetie that it’s difficult for me to kick him out of there, should I decide to brush my teeth or shave. The solution? Do dental prep, first. as soon as I open the toothpaste tube, he’s pretty much awake and in my face, looking for mint, so then I can turn on the water without over-moistening the little boy.

past life test

Going to visit Dan this morning/midafternoon.. He had knee surgery, and is going to be all alone while his Mrs. is at church.. I couldn’t rouse the hippies to go to love fest… hopefully I can meet ci and her clan some other time soon…

I’ll try and take some piccies of my first bike/bus trip.

until this afternoon, dear journal!

I'm a very good man, just not a very good wizard.

oh, freakin’ neato!

paid users can now distribute themselves as an RSS feed.

how honking nifty is that?

also, the converse is true… I can link to deadjournal accounts! eesh… too big a list, mayhap. public only posts, too, because it won’t detect outside security. but now I can read slashdot and plastic from my lj… handeeeee!

here’s a breakdown of some of the uses – http://www.webreference.com/scripts/sidebar/

sweetalyssm‘s post about not having photographed lately (great manips, and a magnificent model…) reminded me that I’ve not done much with my art lately, either. I think I’m going to have to commit an hour a day to just producing some writing again… I got lazy, and fell a big chunk out of the habit. Maybe lunch hour, instead of reading.. not sure. Just programming and fooling around isn’t very productive.

Talked to the bro… he’s doing well except for him and the mother got into some sort of argument, but we may all three have dinner together tomorrow night after work. We’ll see how that takes off. I guess she brought some girl back with her from the last trip to brazil, and is letting her camp out on the couch until she can get on her feet.

Got him some ice cream and good conversation.. always a nice combo.

Is it me, or am I really seeing turquoise jewelry everywhere these days? And crochet string tops?

Also.. Amazon eez de debbil.

Books are hard enough to resist without all this other ease of use stuff! Get thee behind me, oh one-click!

That reminds me… don’t ask how…

I dreamt that my sweetheart’s cat kicked over my fridge to get at the goodies inside, and he was kind enough to share with Newt. We came home to find the appliance on its side, with the furry-boys lapping at the spilled milk within. They seemed quite proud.

and scottobear has 138 readers (That’s about 1/5 of the menstrualhut, or twice the coloringbook)… though about 10% or so are phantoms… linked to me, and then left LiveJournal for parts unknown.

for humility’s sake…

has 41884 members. (I believe that’s the most populated community on LJ)

In other news, Newton’s cuteness ratings went down, as did the number of votes… do older votes die off after a while?

sleeping late with a cat was retired, with a rating of 156.
