TO MOLLIFY LINGJACKSON OVERDRIVEBERT WHO IS THE SQUEAKY DESERT FIEND, POST ON THIS THREAD AND ONE OF YOUR FRIENDLY ITR MODS WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE WICKED AWESOME, AND POSSIBLY OFFER AN EFFUSIVE ST

OMG THANK YOU YOU GUYS!

God I love ITR. Also, I am getting the Nicks confused and need guidance, perhaps in the form of a chart.

Anyway, <3 to estela and the two Nicks for nice words about my finishing my very likely incoherent paper.

You guys rock.

And now I'm going to pass out for a few hours before my crazed five year old crawls into bed with me to wake me up. (Wouldn't be so bad if she didn't have icy little feet...)

I think I will make you said chart. Beats work fo' sho. G'NIGHT!

i really should probably develop some sort of regular sleep habit one of these days

Have you ever? Because 22 years into this whole being alive business and I've realized that if I haven't once kept up a circadian rhythm for more than a week or so, then I'm probably never going to.

ok so i just looked across the street and there is a catamaran on the boulevard.

i am confused.

also, inri en i see kay, i think i made some vague progress on one at some point, but really no success as of yet, so i should probably throw such things to the wolves

i am going to go touch it to make sure that i am not in the last hallucinatory death throes. will report back.

ok so the 8 bagazillion bird calls going on right now make all this insomniac progress v worthwhile. also catamaran confirmation has been established. gnight.

hello itr

i have nothing exciting to report.

then make some crazy shit up. jeeeeeeeeeeeeze

well, actually there was one thing that happened: i went out to the courtyard just before we were closing up, because there was still one table out there and no one had been out to check on them in awhile. i found this couple snorting lines of coke of the edge of their pasta plates.

lols. are you sure it wasn't finely grated parmesan?

wait, maybe you're right

So, in the namedropping stakes, it's not really worth it to boast a connection to Har Mar Superstar, right?

boast it Dan, boast it!

His brother-in-law was one of the leads in the production of "The Rise & Fall of the City of Mahagonny" I did last year and I spent a good amount of time hanging out with him and his wife (Har Mar's sister) during the afterparty, which is where I found out that she and Har Mar grew up in MN a little over an hour away from where I lived. The brother-in-law actually was the person who brought up the connection, which I thought was rad because I think I was probably the only person in the cast who would recognize the name.

hanging out with him and his wife (Har Mar's sister)

For two seconds I thought you meant Har Mar was married to his own sister and my world was uncongealing.

Har Mar is his own sister? WTFWTFWTF?

ooooooooooooh. i get it now.

Ned, your world is...congealed?

Haha everyone from MN is 2 degrees of separation from Har Mar.

Reality is not so much grounded as mushed together. Like multicolored Play-Doh.

It is probably also deeply weird that I'm now sitting here talking to myself on the ITR board, but somehow it seems completely appropriate right now.

lol i did that all semester!

ATTN MS TEHRESA -- please respond to my Facebook message re: end of the month parties. kthxbye.

ok come on ppl, clearly "he" and "him" referred to the brother-in-law, Har Mar didn't even come up until the parenthetical aside

ps bro-in-law was in a PBS Great Performances broadcast of Glimmerglass Opera that was nominated for an Emmy

My friend Jim once convinced Har Mar to take pictures in the Turf Club photobooth with FB in order to keep us busy while he failed to pick up some lady at the bar. These pictures still exist, and show a full steam ahead drunken FB bouncing off the walls around a visibly terrified and uncomfortable Har Mar. awesome.

Dan, you know that HMS is also Sean Na Na, and that he played in Calvin Krime, right?

Is this the Jim I know that went to college with you?

I knew about Sean Na Na but not Calvin Krime. His sister and bro-in-law are pretty awesome folks (and bro-in-law is a FANTASTIC singer).

yes, thats the one. he (like everyone else i know in the world) is a lawyerererer now.

Reading this thread sometimes makes me feel like I'm from another planet. ("Har Mar" is more than just a mall?!)

xpost John, what am I going to have to do to get to see these photos? You should really just post them for the enlightenment of all.

Har Mar Superstar named himself after the mall!

Also I am not a lawyer, I just work with them.

I'm not a lawyer, either, come to think of it. But it does seem like I know a slew of them.

The one with the coolest job is a laywer AND a librarian, and he works at William Mitchell.

So, in the namedropping stakes, it's not really worth it to boast a connection to Har Mar Superstar, right?

I was talking to him once at a show in London and mentioned that my old roommate was from MN and it turned out that he knew both her and another former friend of mine really well. Weird.

Also, hi everyone!

i used to love a sean na na song, the princess and the pony. it's really a great song people

THIS IS TRUE, AND EVERYONE SHOULD HEAR IT

despite their feelings about the rest of his steez

that is the one with the "shake your ass around my casket" line, right?

Haha Sean really does know everyone in MN; I had the remix of that conversation with him in about three different clubs.

Either that or maybe everyone in MN just knows each other!

^^^ My deepest suspicion.

ya JJ that's the one and i'm so glad someone's here to back me up on its greatness. despite their feelings about the rest of his steez is a key point

http://www.scheduletwo.com/video/sean_na_na/princess_and_the_pony

Hmmm, I liked that. So you're saying the rest of his stuff sucks, though, then?

BTW MY PORTISHEAD CD HAS JUST BEEN OPENED AND WILL SOON BE LISTENED TO. IT CAME ON SATURDAY, BUT I JUST FINALLY FOUND TIME TO OPEN IT!

So, you're on "Nylon Smile" by now, right?

Yep, just passed it... now up to "The Rip" So far I like this c.d., but I think it's going to take a while for *anything* to sink in after the past few weeks.

BUT I have heard "Machine Gun" on The Current several times and like it better every time.

Okay, actually NOW listening to "Nylon Smile," as apparently I am still too out of it to realize that I had my iTunes set to "shuffle."

hahaha oops, I did that with Pulp's "This Is Hardcore".

Well, I am basically in a post-nursing school hazing coma, WHAT WAS YOUR EXCUSE

It was 1997.
