resisting the urge to post this to every thread on ilx right now.

OH DON'T I KNOW IT
SO PROUD OF MYSELF

please don't

So just to clarify (I won't press the point further), do you still think the sentence about Mucca Pazza that you wrote was a run-on?

not necessarily, but it needs help and is improperly punctuated. dude you have no idea the magnitude of run ons i see on a daily basis.

Word.

The Mucca Pazza CD is in the listening station at the Broadway Reckless.

My favorite 'manda story is the one student who wrote that workers get lezzy when the boss isn't around.

how long before this thread dies

ps -- know what song i can't get out of my head? "you should hear how she talks about you" by melissa manchester

xp - that was a good one. hahaha. lezzy.

Anyway, can I get an Old Timers head count?

IN. I am done at 5 too so the earlier the better. I guess I can find somewhere to kill time though.

Can't tonight but next week.

I already said I'm f'n going like 2 days ago, just have to drop the rig off at home first. I probably won't be there until like 5:30-6 at the early end.

i will be there around 5:15 5:30?

i need to get some motherlovin' kleenex, i'm done and whenever the hvac comes on my eyes and nose start watering something fierce. i'm like buckingham fucking fountain over here.

J & J are going as well.

x Pretttyyyy.

thanks for the kleenex dan!

I want to go, but then I also don't. Katie invited me to someplace, and I said no, but that was someplace on a certain part of town that is hard to get to/from and OT is so convenient....I dunno.

Go ahead. Give in. Beer! Beer!

is OT cash only?

They will take pretty much any form of payment you have. You could probably arrange to pay with a kidney if you were in dire financial straits but still wanted a watery beer.

Sweet, looking forward to it. Like I said earlier, I'll be there around 6.

The Obama thing tomorrow just got weirder: MACY GRAY is now headlining.

You know she and Tweed will do those "do do do"s on the Third Eye Blind song at the end.

mucca pazza sound okay on myspace (moreso the slavicish tunes), but i'm not a fan of the whole wacky marching band circus image.

slavish?

yeah, it seems kinda corny and makes me wish they were actually a little more humorless in their presentation.

have fun tonight, goobers. wish i could join you.

i am going to a high school basketball game tonight!

Is she a cheerleader or on the team?

Trader Joes caramel filled chocolates, topped with crunchy rock salt

i had one of these tonight, it's very good! yum.

went to champagne tasting, it was pretty good. i have mid-range taste, it seems. then went to get a grilled cheese and fries. yum.

i'm up for thirsty thursday if you do it next week...

amanda, your stories make me laugh.

It could snow 9 months out the year and I would be a happy man. I swear I'm not just (only) being contrary, but I get outdoors more in moderate winter weather than I do in any other season/weather, especially when it's snowing. Tonight I stayed on the train a couple stops and walked home in the snizzy.

i walked home from division and swore outloud to no one in particular the whole way home. i also stopped at picante and now have heartburn like you wouldn't believe.

so worth it though.

I love the snow too. I don't like the ice and slush though. It makes me tense up my leg muscles and walk slowly and humorously, leading to much soreness.

Can anyone recommend a good cat sitter? I wanted to use the same company we used for the honeymoon, but they haven't called us back, so I'm thinking they are booked up already.

No, sorry. Kenan is my cat-sitter.

Hey Colette? I don't have your email address (is your ILX email the useable?) but I have terrible news: I was on call at Catch and now I'm working. (Which is bad news, but it's also good b/c my checking acct. is going to go in the red in a few days b/c I'm so damn dumb as hell.)

reasons why it pays to get to know your neighbors:

-she is cat-sitting for me over xmas

-he is recording guitar tracks for a digd0wn remix

we just need to work out the laundry thing and then we'll be straight.

I feel like as soon as I meet a neighbor, they move away. I hope that says nothing bad about me. ha ha But seriously, there is so much turn over in our building.

btw, it turns out high school girls aren't very good at basketball

Fuck you, my alma mater made it to the state finals last year.

dudez this is awesome:

I'll get on that.

Fuck you, my alma mater made it to the state finals last year.

but that doesn't disprove jordan's theory. they could be the best of a bad lot, it wouldn't make them very good.

that said, jordan is full of shit on this one.

that video makes me so happy

ha, that is pretty awesome

100% of the girls' high school basketball teams i've seen in the last five years are bad
