I dropped Ben off at his house, and walked in the door about 20 minutes ago. The first words out of my mouth, to absolutely no one (expect perhaps my cat) was: What the fuck? It’s 2:30 AM? Gah. Justin and Ben kept up these crazy sort of hours, back at the very beginning of …
Joey is leaving us at Q101. He’s going to bigger and better things, working in a newer capacity with promotions for our St. Louis stations. He had a party this evening, and Ben and I totally blanked on it. We were working away and, as I was driving him home… Ben remembered. I thought the …
It’s a subtle change, but it’s changed. I’m happy this is starting up again. :)
So I crashed ou on my couch for a few hours. Literally, the next thing I realized was "Wow, was I asleep?" Fast forward to about 1:30 PM. I went out, rented some movies, and proceeded to spend the rest of my day sitting and zoning out. So far, I’ve gotten about three hours of …
Google, a few keywords… and look what you can find: www.you-are-beautiful.com.
Despite some of its inhabitants, I really, really do love this country. I don’t think I say that often enough. You are Beautiful, Version 2.0 I happened to see this on North Avenue on the walk back. Someone nearby is doing this, since I’ve seen a ton of them in the area. Wish I knew …
Near the Blue Line stop, there’s this Chinese restaurant called "Silk Road." I’ve eaten there maybe once for lunch, with Justin. But it seems like they started serving breakfast stuff within the past few years – mainly to folks on their way to work and nearby construction workers. I had an egg and sausage and …
I was listening to a few of the tracks from some of the artists on the P3 site. We ended up having to dig around/purchase the tracks ourselves, and so many of the artist "pages" have full songs streaming. The station folks and labels might complain, but I kinda like it. In particular, I found …
I don’t think either of us expected the night to go on a long as it did. I had in mind that we’d be able to get our work cranked out fairly quickly. I thought it was going to be a late night, but not dawn late, you know? Ah well, it all worked out. …
Skipped lunch. Just had coffee all day. I stopped around 4:30 PM (au bon pain is on the ground floor of our building, and has half-price on all baked goods after 4 PM), and picked up some sort of apple strudel thing. It wasn’t so much a meal as it was something to place in …
I’ve got a bit more work I could be doing tonight, but fuck it. I’ll wake up early tomorrow, head in to work and crank on things with some strong coffee. It’s getting late on a Sunday, and I want to take a bit of a break. Goof off some, and just sit on the …
This is a picture of "Betsy." No idea where the name came from. I was over at Carla’s this evening, trying to help her sort out her computer woes. Apparently, after fifteen minutes of online use… her computer would freeze up. To make matters worse, today she called me and said that the darn thing …
Matt and I are going to start up our weekly exchange of poems again. We had a good run the last time, so the trick will be to maintain it this time. So far, we’re setting the rules at five lines. Three poems a week, on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday. Next month, we increase it …
Stumbled across this, this morning, while rummaging around CNN. Thanks to FlamingoJeff, for posting a link to the live WebCast: 2:00 PM EST.
Felix's Chinese name is Wei Tien. For the longest time, he thought his name meant "very sky." But he later found out it roughly translated to "Preserver of Heaven."
Felix was in show choir in high school. He can still pull out the old "jazz hands" if need be, due in no small part to muscle memory.
Every once in a while, Felix has some interesting run-ins with other Asians. At times, they're armed with cameras; at other times, he has the slight feeling that they might be armed, period.
