I was talking with my friend Dave on the phone today, and he mentioned hearing my voice on the radio recently. Turns out, it was part of an NPR piece focusing on Alicia and her life. It was surprising to hear about this from Dave, as I had just been looking over some old emails…
Jeez. Do you read this thing like every single day? Hehe. I’m just messing around.
la Pate a Son: I’m not really sure how to describe this, so I’m going to suggest you visit and give it a try yourself. Don’t forget to turn on your speakers (link stolen from Ektopia).
Sweet Jebus, I’ve done nothing all day but sweat. Woke up super early this morning, got in my car, and it started. I’ve felt drenched all day. But no more! I ran errands this morning and got a ton of stuff – a nice drill and a big honking fan. Today, I decided, was the…
Stopped in to Gallery Cafe, and Holly mentioned that she had seen the site (as well as the pics I took of the coffee shop). She said she felt a bit weird about it, in that it seemed such a voyeuristic thing (which I guess is definitely something other people have mentioned to me). I…
As is tradition for Emmis over the summers, we have half-day Fridays. It’s a nice perk we get, typically a conditional based on how each station’s GM (General Manager) decides to run things. In Chicago, Marv has stated that, as long as we’ve all met budget, we can continue our half-day Fridays. So far, we’ve…
Behold the bounty! Before I knew it, I had a big (and excellent) stack of books with me. Bookstores are dangerous for me. I walk in thinking I won’t find anything, and invaribly walk out with a huge stack of books. What’s particularly great about this batch is that these are all favorite writers of…
I wonder if this cello teacher and the piano tuner are in cahoots?
After work, Justin and I walk over to The Siskel Center to buy tickets to The Found Video Show. The two of us ended up getting a dual membership. It’s always something I contemplate when I come here, but never end up doing (mostly because it seems I come here so rarely). But… with this…
Guess who had a meeting with the razor? Justin shows up at work today, clean-shaven and looking like a 5 year old. Rumor has it though, he’ll be growing the moustache back. What’s funny is that I’ve been contemplating shaving recently as well, and also getting some of this damn hair lopped off. I keep…
So… that roll of film I found yesterday? Turns out that it’s got a ton of pictures of my going-away party. I had just graduated from grad school, and was heading off to Chicago to try and make my way as a Flash designer. The pictures (below) are presented in order. What a totally crazy,…
Some of you may recognize this purple pillowcase. It is in fact, the same pillowcase as was displayed when Matt first brought in a crapton of change, many months ago. Today, he appeared with a slightly smaller amount of coins, but we all went around placing guesses nonetheless. These coins come from the laundry machines…
