Attention hairy people

If you’re at risk for cardiac arrest and you have a hairy chest… you might want to shave that bad boy. It seems that excessive hair is enough of a problem with defib that it actually warrants a section in the manual on how to get rid of it. And the first try ISN’T shaving. [...]

April 30th.

I suppose I should pay my taxes, eh? Especially since I actually owe this year… poop.

The laptop, she lives!

It’s alive! IT’S ALIIIIIIVE! Things that are shocking: 1) HP has really good email support. Good responses (half form-lettered, but on-topic) within an hour of each of my emails. 2) The so-called “destructive recovery” isn’t so destructive, and actually does a really good job. Note for those of you with HP’s who completely fuck up [...]

Why I like the marmot.

marmot says: Cynthia Nixon on house! marmot says: oho! marmot says: Cynthia Nixon makes me go ohohohohoh marmot says: has the redheaded hotness donnamatrix says: old episode. But yes, she is teh hawt. donnamatrix says: also, is lesbian. Then, at precisely the same time: donnamatrix says: so we have a chance! marmot says: I know! [...]

Is it something I did?

I’m starting to think I’m cursed. Probably because I missed out on the Gypsy party. Fucking gypsies and their gypsy curses. Anyway, so I was on the skytrain heading home tonight, and somewhere between Joyce & Patterson, and the train is filled with a quick flash of light — my initial thought was that someone [...]

Yay, I have textbooks!

After some moments of panic, after I tried to buy the textbooks for my course and they laughed and said “fat chance” … they’ve gotten more in. Phew. When I called today, they had seven left (ack!) so since getting to New West between 9:30 – 4 is virtually impossible, what with that whole working [...]

Mmmm, tasty

Concentrating on the good.

Justice & I went for a great run last night. For peace of mind, I picked up a cheap muzzle for her. It’s really more to keep other people from approaching her. Most people see a muzzle and assume “vicious beast”. Well, she’s really only half vicious, but let’s not take the risk. So, I [...]

Angst, angst, angst…

I’m in a bit of a funk. And unsurprisingly, my repeated admonitions to myself that I simply “snap out of it” don’t seem to be working. My thought that perhaps I just go drink myself stupid until said angst goes away seems a bit self destructive, and hell, accepting and actually dealing with said angst [...]

Suggestions, Part 3

Part 1 | Part 2 Last night was totally full of awesome. Which was, of course, countered by today being a total shitfest, although at least the company was good. So… after work, we got all snazzed up. The whole point of this evening was basically an excuse for both of us to clean up [...]
