Another nice site from Visualade, where Jerkstore works his magic (along with the inestimable Deans).

Mind the Gap Cat?
My birthday
Is coming up. I realized this talking with Ben today. That’s about as far as I want to go tonight on this topic, at least for now. This is something I’m most definitely be kicking around for the next week or so.
Linky Links
I’ve got little to discuss, so instead… I’m offering up work by other people. This hasn’t been the greatest week for sleep, so I may just knock off early, crawl into bed, and read Life of Pi some more. Man oh man, I’m loving that book so far. Tomorrow is supposed to be a gorgeous…
Lateness
Though it’s not all that big, I was up late working on work stuff. Residue from the day, that I never got finished. It’s close to 1:30 AM now, and I attribute that more to my pace than to the difficulties of my tasks. Still – I’m pretty beat. And to top it off, there’s…
Meet Nebula
Nebula is a cat that gets around. She used to be Stu’s cat. However, a few months ago she moved homes, and now Justin’s looking after her. But today, I got to look after her for a bit. I stopped by, and the two of us bonded for a good while. Well, that’s not exactly…
HOB
Hung out with Jill and Ben and Matt for a while. Talked to a few folks from the station here and there. I ended up not taking pictures partly because I wasn’t in the mood. But mostly, it was a dark area (fourth floor), and using a flash would have been blindingly intrusive. The one…
Realization
After work, the Q101 staff met up at House of Blues, for a farewell party for Joel (the station engineer, and local IT guy). As I was preparing to leave work, I realized I couldn’t find my camera bag. Checked the desk, the meeting table, nowhere. Fuck. After some tracking, I realize I must have…
What the fuck?
Today was a strange day at work. During the middle of the day, I was overcome with what I can only describe as an overwhelming amount of frustration and stress. The weird fucking thing about all of this is that I’m not really all that busy with things at my job. At least, I’m nowhere…
Sushi and Beer
Hung out with Justin after work. We met up at Bob San for dinner, and hung out for a good long while afterwards. The one unfortunate part of dinner was my late lunch – I simply wasn’t very hungry at all, and ordered about a third of what I typically order, when indulging in sushi….
I stand Corrected
According to Chelsea, she played a lot of Tom Waitswhen we were living together. Doh.
Three Dog… Day?
This is right below the Damen Blue Line stop. I passed them by, then took out my camera and circled back. I’m not sure if they all had the same owner, but each dog was focused intently on someone inside the coffee shop. As far as body language goes, I think dogs have this whole…
Bars poetica

An Email, and a Sidenote
I got a great email from Gretchen today, who send out a cool message to a bunch of us. In addition to her excitement about the nearing of Spring, she included a poem by Bob Hicok. Interestingly enough, Hicok is someone who we published a lot at The Journal (the name of the literary journal…
