Well, that was strange

            I’ve got a lot of stuff to blog about.  Some of it is serious, some just funky junk-net stuff.  But I’m not going to get to those tonight.

            I pulled an all-nighter and finished my last paper (ever).  I woke myself up after I went to sleep.  Sometimes you wake up because you’re coughing.  Some people wake themselves when they turn over or roll around a lot.  I woke up laughing hysterically.  And it’s not linked to finals being over.  I had a funny dream and started laughing.  And then I laughed some more.  Until I woke myself up.  And after I woke up I kept laughing.  Waking up to your own laughter is one of the strangest feelings in the world.  Really confused the hell out of me.

            I’ll get back to writing more, and on a more regular basis once I get home.

Pure Frosting

            First off, and most importantly, there’s a new comic at .  It’s obviously an intro to a subplot.  Or is it…  You never can tell with these po-mo/deconstructionist works these days, can you?

Your Seduction Style: The Dandy

You're a non-traditionalist, not limited by gender roles or expectations. Your sexuality is more fluid than that - and you defy labels or categories. It's hard to pin you down, and that's what's fascinating about you. You have the psychology of both a male and a female, and you can relate to anyone.

What Is Your Seduction Style?

It has been a good week

            I know it’s been a while.  I’ve actually missed updates because I’ve been doing things.  But now I’m supposed to be writing papers so I have time to waste.  Hey, Word is open so it’s a start

            So, this week I met Lisa Loeb.  It was fantastic.  I got all giddy and when I handed her a CD (Reality Bites) she asked to flip through my CD wallet.  It was great.  I mean, what better compliment could I get?  Oh, and when she hit the Office Space soundtrack she told me it’s her favourite movie.  So there’s some trivia for you.

            Later in the week I went on a gallery crawl.  Only Rachel picked the wrong week and all the galleries were closed in preparation for the crawl next week.  We still got into a few galleries and got to the Warhol.  A pleasant day.  Oh, and Larry was late so he is no immortalized.  As late.

"Hi, I'm Larry.  And I was late."


The man running at us is about to stop us, tell us he's from Rochester, show us his ID, ask if we can jump his car, ask for change and then curse us and America when we don't give him anything.


Me, having just conquered the bridge.


Having defeated the bridge, I am now off to fight more evil.  Or go to the Warhol.

            Next up on the summary of the week is The Shins concert.  I was enjoyable.  They have a live vibe that’s not really my thing.  While I say that my music genre is indie, it’s not Indie.  I like independent music, not so much only the Indie Rock.  And these guys had a certain squareness about them.  Like when they kicked someone out for smoking up.  I mean, you’re performing a concert.  Who takes the time to kick someone out of an outdoor concert for smoking in the middle of a song?   That’s bastard.  I mean, the best part was when they were playing Zeppelin songs, and that was just as a joke.  Oh, and for the second half of the concert I was stuck next to the worst people in the world to attend a concert with.  They were a couple who insisted on jumping into people (like emo-mosh) on slow songs, and clapping on the songs they knew.  And they wouldn’t stop.  Not even when no one joined in.  I hope they’re dead by now.

He was all emo'd out.  But he had excuses.














I have no idea who the hell that guy is.  But he's looking right at me.  Take blinding light, creepy watcher!


And lo, the lord saw the crowd surfers at the show and said "Dude, what the fuck?  Do you not even hear how laid back this music is?  Ass."  And the lord's faith in humanity died that day.

            After that I walked into the Boxball party.  They call it 4-Square here.  But then again they call soda “pop” so why they hell would I take their word for anything?  The party was fun. I got really into a few rounds, had a lot of free hotdogs and generally had a good time.  The vibe was what the concert should have been like: energetic, friendly and an all encompassing spirit of fun. 

I don't know what "That's Right" means, but that probably makes me a square.  Oh crap, that was a bad pun.  Sorry.


Lots of people playing.


And some more people playing.


Erik sure picked a weird time to become a Buddhist.  Maybe it's because not even his Christian god could save his game.


And here's a guy wearing a PETA apron.  Serving me a hot dog.  Fantastic.

            So, no ranting speech this time.  It’s been a good week, it’s now finals week, I’ll see how that goes.  And don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll find something to rage against in a few days.  And if now, I’ll update my comic.  Yeah, this summer I should get on schedule with that, so just bear with me until then.

            As a closing note, here’s the “True Stories” album by the Talking Heads on vinyl.  I got it for $3.
