thoughts from an empty head

2012-02-01T11:15:00.001-06:00

FYI: "National Socialism" has as much socialism in it as the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" has democracy.

2012-01-31T21:49:00.001-06:00

All right. Which one of you broke Tumblr?

2012-01-31T21:21:00.001-06:00

Google censoring Blogger. Twitter censoring tweets. You realize that this leaves LiveJournal as the last best hope for freedom.

Just finished watching MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE. Which, I'll bet, was less painful than watching the latest GOP debate.

2012-01-22T18:48:00.001-06:00

The Patriots, huh? And just like that, my interest in watching the Super Bowl dropped to zero.

2012-01-21T22:17:00.001-06:00

Was going to have a cup of tea, but then I noticed that I have no snacks, which is why there's a loaf of banana bread in the oven right now.

2012-01-20T20:18:00.001-06:00

Hmm. I'll have to get a job soon. I've had to break into the emergency beer supply.

80 degrees outside. Well, so much for winter.

2012-01-15T22:26:00.001-06:00

I'm not sure if it's my slowly-worsening deafness, but I'm watching THE EXPENDABLES, and I can't understand a word Stallone is saying.

2012-01-15T22:09:00.001-06:00

You know, if THE MATRIX has ended with the first movie, that would have been just fine.

2012-01-15T21:08:00.001-06:00

Hell. I've picked up a light sneeze from somewhere. That'll teach me to hang around in strange realities.

2012-01-15T13:36:00.001-06:00

I need slippers.

2012-01-14T17:06:00.001-06:00

Seeing as I cannot walk without sending searing pain through my left leg, I will now catch up on my reading and podcasts.

2012-01-14T17:02:00.001-06:00

Ow. My ankle hurts. As in, "OMG THE PAIN WHO CHOPPED OFF MY FOOT AAAAIIIIEEEE". Or something like that.

CNN on one TV, Fox "News" on the other. Or as I like to think of them, Dumb and Dumber.

2012-01-10T18:03:00.001-06:00

TVs inside McD's blaring NH primary stuff. If I wasn't sure I was burned out on election nonsense before, seeing Wolf Blitzer clinched it.

2012-01-10T17:59:00.001-06:00

Brain is frazzled after a sooprize nap. Feel like I've dropped into an alternate dimension.

2012-01-09T11:51:00.001-06:00

And I'll call my little duckies Groucho, Chico, Harpo, Zeppo and Gummo. And they'll learn all the words to "Hail Hail Freedonia".

2012-01-09T11:40:00.001-06:00

How lovely. I always wanted a duck pond in my pantry. Now all the water that leaked there last night made my dream come true.

2012-01-07T12:06:00.001-06:00

And now, for a few kung fu movies, followed by an hour in the pool. Oh, wait, the pool is closed. So much for reliving my childhood.

2012-01-07T12:04:00.001-06:00

Seeing as the art of the Saturday morning cartoon has largely lost, I've spent all morning with BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES.

No cookies in the house. Baking will commence shortly.

And for the record, I'm going to start a band called "Steven's 3rd Android".

2011-12-09T12:24:00.001-06:00

You know, I may have been wrong about this Kindle thing. Just bought a book for 99 cents and had it delivered to my Android. Wow.

2011-12-09T12:21:00.001-06:00

I have broken the curse on my hands. I just peeled an entire orange in one long, unbroken peel with just my fingers.

2011-12-09T10:54:00.001-06:00

Every computer I've used today has suffered from slowness. Clearly, my hands are cursed.

2011-12-09T10:27:00.001-06:00

Was accidentally exposed to a Justin Bieber song this morning by NPR. Honest-to-God initial reaction: "Damn, this chick can't sing."

It's a bit chilly outside. Time for a nice cup of hot chocolaté.

2011-12-04T21:55:00.001-06:00

No thank you, Netflix. Dealing with the paranoia that a viewing of THE THING would provide is not my idea of a fun Monday morning.

2011-12-04T19:50:00.001-06:00

Hmm, a Tyler Perry movie and three Dinosaur Train episodes. Methinks the family has been using my Netflix account again. :)

2011-12-04T19:13:00.001-06:00

Yep, it's getting close to winter. Had to dig out the hat, gloves and scarf.

2011-12-04T16:57:00.001-06:00

Must be the holiday season in Texas. HEB was selling tamales and gear to make tamales like they were going out of style.

Work work work. Ha ha, no. I've spent most of the day cleaning up my flash drive and reading Lessig.

2011-11-26T09:07:00.001-06:00

A little after nine here. Cold, damp, grey and rainy outside. Finally. I thought autumn would never get here.

2011-11-21T13:44:00.001-06:00

I have just witnessed a vigorous debate concerning Gonzo the Muppet's relationship with a chicken. My brain will never forgive me.

2011-11-21T13:13:00.001-06:00

Geez, Texas. I'm getting really tired of turning the AC on in the winter.

My one thought on BREAKING DAWN: that one day, it will be remade by David Cronenberg. Now that's a birth scene I want to see.

2011-11-17T20:58:00.001-06:00

The cold has not improved. Still achy and sore and sniffly and generally grumpy. Don't know if I'm gonna make it to work tomorrow.

2011-11-16T18:46:00.001-06:00

Home. I sure do miss those ten-minute commutes I used to have.

2011-11-16T12:21:00.001-06:00

I've broken two major "never gonna's": I've restarted my Facebook account, and now I've downloaded the Kindle app for my phone.

2011-11-16T09:28:00.001-06:00

Traffic was severly hosed today. Some poor soul jumped off one of the really tall US 281 exit ramps over I-410.

Watching the GOP debates, I realize how close we are to having President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

2011-11-11T21:01:00.001-06:00

Banana bread in the oven. I've said it before: Imma bag this silly computer shtick and open a bakery.

2011-11-11T11:40:00.001-06:00

Waiting for a drug screening. Maybe eating three poppy seed muffins this morning wasn't a good idea.

2011-11-10T23:58:00.001-06:00

Oy, my tummy is too full of banana bread. Maybe there is such a thing as "too much of a good thing".

Starting a short-term gig on Monday. Hopefully, the drug screen doesn't include caffeine.

2011-11-10T12:24:00.003-06:00

Well, whaddya know? I have all the components for making banana bread. :)

63 degrees and cool breezes for the next few days. I love autumn.

2011-11-08T11:33:00.001-06:00

Wait, if I want to watch HBO shows on my Roku, I have to get a cable subscription first? Why the hell would I need my Roku, then?

2011-11-08T11:19:00.001-06:00

Finally, the rain came. Windows are open and the cool breeze feels nice.

2011-11-07T16:46:00.001-06:00

Fifty percent humidity. Yuck. Days like this are why I miss the desert.

2011-11-05T18:38:00.001-05:00

In other news, resetting my phone has yielded very positive results. I got all the way home before the battery died.

2011-11-05T15:44:00.001-05:00

The only problem I have with walking around a crowded city is that I become acutely aware of how very single I am.

2011-11-05T15:41:00.001-05:00

OK, my feet have officially called it quits and my left calf is throbbing. I think that's enough exercise for one day.

2011-11-05T15:13:00.001-05:00

I've done a hellacious amount of walking today. Think I'll let the streetcar take over from here.
