― JuliaA (JuliaA), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, excellent, Jordan. That's a fine idea. If I wasn't flat broke again.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Shit. How can I NOT buy it at that price? I feel bad because I was party to Courtney's buy Season 3 at Borders for around $20-some. Fuck. I'm trying to stick to a budget. Fuck.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 05:53 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, I am not going to buy it. But I better get off the internet before its siren song gets to me.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 05:54 (seventeen years ago) link

5 minutes left....

thank you julia! i just got me some xmas gifts!

― t0dd swiss (immobilisme), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 06:10 (seventeen years ago) link

OK. It was still there after midnight, and I remembered that I had some Amazon GC credit on my account, so the complete set of AD is now mine, and my conscience is pretty clear.

Thanks, Julia, and I too support your decision.

Also: fuck you, FOX.

Good morning, starshines. The earth says WASSSSUUUPPP?!?!?!?!?

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:21 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, you missed a very fine fake fictions show last night. i tried (in vain) to explain to nick why despite a few bumps it was my favorite ff show and now that i'm sober i think it comes down to focus. it was a very focused set and i liked it.

$1.25 beers never hurt either.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:25 (seventeen years ago) link

You mean like how Nick managed to unplug his guitar in one song and lose his strap in another or how one of our friends described us as sounding like "..you're about to drive off this cliff, but you have your seatbelt on.."?

I couldn't sleep last night. I finally got myself all wide awake to play, but that required drinking lots of coke and rum & coke. So then in bed my heart was beating really fast and I felt nauseous from all the smoke.

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:29 (seventeen years ago) link

But also, I enjoyed drinking rum & coke and look forward to Thirsty Thursday. Where are we going this time?

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I couldn't sleep either, I was too pumped up from the show. It was a blast.

I am working from home again today, whooo!

― n/a (n/a), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:58 (seventeen years ago) link

I felt nauseous from all the smoke.

sorry, that was probably all me, i was chain smoking last night. but even with those bumps i still thought it was a great set. there wasn't one moment where i didn't think it wasn't totally about the music. and i'm confused by my own use of the triple negative but i thought it was great set.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:00 (seventeen years ago) link

You'd make a good lawyer with those kind of triple negatives.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Sarah knows it was a good show, she's just fishing for compliments. You can ignore her.

― n/a (n/a), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:07 (seventeen years ago) link

how one of our friends described us as sounding like "..you're about to drive off this cliff, but you have your seatbelt on.."?

I think that sounds complimentary, actually.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:12 (seventeen years ago) link

I GUESS I AM IGNORING NICK, EH???

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Ugh, I've got a headache and I don't know why. I want to go back to bed and then get up and read detective stories.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:14 (seventeen years ago) link

That's good that you guys had a good show. Good shows are good.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:15 (seventeen years ago) link

It feels like it should be the weekend.

― n/a (n/a), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:22 (seventeen years ago) link

seriously.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:25 (seventeen years ago) link

10x

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm just pushing on for December 19. December 19th it will all be over... (My last thing is actually due Dec. 20 BUT I want to go to my office Christmas party/drunken pool playing bash on the 20th so I'm pretending that the paper is actually due on the 19th so I'll finish the stupid paper in time for drunken antics.)

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Don't ignore me! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I need attention. Also, I need some slapping to stay awake.

Empty Bottle has smoke coming out of its pores. I reek after being in there like five minutes.

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I've come to cherish the smoking ban here.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I finally made it into the office around 10.30. Got lost in Chinatown last night, on way home from MNDC (I take a new, further away train now, and I was drunkish). Probably wasted 45 minutes being confused by angled streets and bridge lights. I have a problem with bridges, apparently.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:51 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, you missed a very fine fake fictions show last night.

I know, I know, I'm sorry guys, but I got home to an ice-cold apartment (our thermostat is broken now, though the furnace works) and the one of the water heaters in the basement spewing water. That necessitated a lot of landlord interaction and moving of stuff (to escape the soaking), and by the time it was done I didn't feel like doing anything. Also, I couldn't feel anything because my hands and toes were frozen. Getting out of bed this morning was really, really hard. It should be fixed this afternoon but wow, what a pain in the ass.

I don't understand. Why does she have a sad lamp? What are those good for?

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:59 (seventeen years ago) link

People with Seasonal Affective Disorder sit under sun lamps to feel better in the winter when it's dark and/or grey out all the time.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:00 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I think I need one.

haha

I went on a Motorhead binge last night, because of the ILM thread.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Actually, it started out with listening to Boris, and then segued smoothly into Motorhead.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:13 (seventeen years ago) link

My office is now fully pimped out with 1) a slammin' space heater and 2) a hot pot for making tons and tons of tea. I am currently enjoying blueberry rooibos and am not freezing. This rules.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Too depressed to finish biting through a piece of toast! That's hilarious and sad all at the same time.

Amanda is this an office at home or an office elsewhere? I keep threatening to bring a coffee pot special for the library at work but then they talk about fire hazards and being thankful for the terrible free coffee and crap.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:17 (seventeen years ago) link

This is at eye eye tea, in my office with the gigantic windows. For some weird reason, though, my eyes are super bloodshot.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Does anyone have any good crockpot/slow cooker recipes? I have one but I've never used it. Maybe it would be good for red beans & rice?

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Are you in that terrible red and orange student center? Being in there makes everything look kind of bloodshot.

I know I'm supposed to appreciate that for all its architectural modernity and innovation and stuff, but that much shiny red and orange and silver makes me irritable.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Jordan, it's awesome for all-day spaghetti sauce, too. I'll try to find my mom's recipe if you like.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:25 (seventeen years ago) link

There's the chicken and sweet potato stew that I gave Kevin the recipe for a few weeks ago.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Nah, I'm across State in another square, modern building with very large, very leaky single pane windows.

I have several wonderful crockpot recipes but my WRIST BRACE is making me too lazy to type them. I am most proud of 1) NC BBQ and 2) Ethipian-style beef stew. Both have been successful on multiple occasions.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:27 (seventeen years ago) link

I meant Ethiopian. DAMN WRIST CAUSING FINGERS TO MALFUNCTION.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:28 (seventeen years ago) link

STUPID NON-FUNCTIONAL ROBOTIC ARM.

Shit, I wish I had some spaghetti now! Good thing we're going to business lunch soon, only food will banish this hangover. Of course then I'll want to sleep, but at least Sleepy isn't Queasy.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:29 (seventeen years ago) link

All those foodz sound delicious, but especially NC BBQ, mmmm.

Have you been to the wrist doctor yet, Amanda?

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 16:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Wow, wrist brace? I guess I shouldn't ask you too many questions on the internet, but did you go to a doc? Do you have a RSI?

I think I have the BBQ recipe in my sent items from when I sent it to Jefferooni so if you're interested, Jordan, I can post or email it.

I guess that answers that question.
