And of course, I oversleep. Last night? When I took that nap? I had set up my alarm clock for something like 10:30 PM. But when I got back home, I forgot to reset it back to 7:30AM. And woke up late. So I get in to work around 10:30, and spend most of the…

Tonight, I had plans to meet up with Katie. She and Anna Marie were going to see Ted Leo, but found out he wasn’t going to go onstage until around midnight. Well, the two of them were going to try to make Justin’s DJ gig (he’s doing Clubfoot again tonight), as fast as they could…

Ok, this is fucking ridiculous. In about an hour and a half, Ben’s email garnered a LOT of replies. Right now, it’s hours after the fact… and I’m still not able to wrap my head around this properly. The total? About $650. Sweet. Jebus. I’m still not entirely sure what happened today. In the span…

During lunch, Ben gets the idea of starting up a fundraiser to get me a new camera. I’m a little uncomfortable about this, but before I know it… he’s got everyone at the table willing to chip in a little bit of money. What’s great is that a lot of folks mentioned the blog, and…

Today, Katie and Anna Marie were visiting the station, and a bunch of us went out to lunch at Monk’s. We got there around 1:00PM, and the place was pretty packed, wall to wall. We stood around a while, and waited for a place to open up (around lunchtime, this place gets crazy busy). Finally,…

I got a call tonight from Chris, inviting me over to his place for some Texas Holdem. I showed up around 9, and we broke out the chips (this was a new set that he had recently purchased, ever since we played a few rounds with Mike’s set). L to R, Will and Eric (ooh,…

Chris passed around a link today to an article on CNN entitled Ten Worst Toys of 2004, outlining toys that are “so poorly designed or tested that they pose a serious safety or health risk to children.” Looking through the list, we were all laughing at some of the names and marvelling how they all…

Got a message from Katie today, who’s been out of state for a while now. I lost touch with her a few months back, but it turns out she’s going to be in Chicago this week. Thursday, she’ll be in to the office and a bunch of us are headed out to lunch. She’s invited…

I’ve taken it easy the past few days, and haven’t been working much on a computer. Last week, between work and freelance stuff, I logged a craplaod of time in front of a monitor. This weekend, I decided that I had enough of that, and spent a lot of time messing with Chelsea’s Playstation, or…

Ahahahaha! Holy CRAP, I haven’t laughed this much at a movie in I don’t know how long. SO much fun. I’d heard about this movie a long while back, but I’m kicking myself for waiting until now to see it. You know the sign of a good movie? Halfway through, I wanted to call up…
