Its very satisfying to watch the 3 Bourne movies as a very long origin story for Captain America.
250lb men should not, i repeat SHOULD NOT, pull the chair-lowering lever while sitting in the chair. Stand, pull lever, sit slowly.
laptop wont recognize this DVD…iMac will… do I work on the small screen just to watch something loud (Desperado) at 0630 while working?
Man, I stress out over spending gift certificates. Here is some home brewing gadgetry, the intended merchandise. On the other hand…cigars.
Twitterific sometimes breaks, can’t connect, doesn’t post or refresh…but the ads NEVER fail.

Made it to pa and packed already. 9 hours to kill! Finding place to sleep in car.
Halfway there, no casualties.
Getting ready for a solo, midnight run to PA to clean house one last time. On the amount of sleep and health I’ve had, this just feels dumb.
The top of my scalp hurts. Weird.
Having been failed by all other medications, I’m starting to consider sleeping pills to ride this one out.

Twitter apparently has rolled back the clock 5 days? Posts from the 9th up top.
Sandra Bullock is Sandra Bullock is Sandra Bullock
Choosing Sunday Night over Monday Morning as the time to fulfill my 9AM Monday deadline. Gotta go where the actual energy is.
Lazy Sunday.
What the…did Time Warner seriously co-opt my browser’s “can not find” page? Someone will pay.
Good morning, world. Don’t try any funny stuff.
When it takes you hours to fall asleep, and then the kids wake you up a bit, and so you oversleep by an hour on accident, but are still tired, you know you’re on your way to a totally awesome day.
No idea how I have more range on the trumpet now than when I used to actually play. No tone or articulation, but way more range.
Consider me the Tanya-Harding’s-boyfriend to your productivity’s Nancy Kerrigan.
Finished work already, early night! Still Wednesday!
The keys to my working schedule: coffee, sugar, and a total disrespect for one’s health. “You must not care whether you live or die.”

There really is a huge quality gap between store- and name-brand popcorn. Party on, Orville.

enjoying Nocturne from blacktree.com. But for how long? Could I actually work this way?
My bi-annual trumpet-dust-off. In which I try not to get frustrated nor to aspire too greatly.
Dear Torchwood: You are no Doctor Who. Or X-Files. Or anything else.
Watching Superfriends with the boy. I really like Boomerang’s action figure montage. I had/have most of those.
My call is being transferred to a “relationship manager,” situation elevated from canceling a credit card to breaking up with someone.
Making the boy his TMBG mix CD for bed-time usage. He already has a large section of my iPod cordoned off.
not getting anything done. gonna go dig the boy a tunnel in the many feet of snow
The problem with not knowing how things are “supposed” to be done is that I tend to like my ways better.
