I've had a headache for the past two and half days. This has never happened to me before, waht is wrong.

― JordanC (JordanC), Monday, 25 December 2006 15:42 (seventeen years ago) link

I took a nap yesterday and the the weirdest, most intense dreams I maybe ever had. I kept falling asleep and going into this totally real alternate reality, where I would be doing mundane things, like talking to my coworkers. Only one of my coworkers would be someone I totally made up, someone I have never even seen. And I'd say to myself, "Wait a minute. This is a dream. I don't work with any light-skinned black guys!" Then I'd force myself to kind of half open my eves to check in with the real world real quick before going right back to sleep and doing it again. It was strange waking up. For a good half hour, I still wasn't entirely sure that this was the real world, and I kept looking for signs that something was wrong with it.

Hey, you know what, guys? Merry Christmas.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Monday, 25 December 2006 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Merry xmas bros. Made a good haul. Lots of books, including two copies of the new Pynchon (going to return one). Donald Barthelme's 60 Stories. Sweaters. The Residents' Commercial Album. Good stuff. I am sleepy. Watching "Mythbusters" in my parents' freezing basement.

― n/a (n/a), Monday, 25 December 2006 17:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Barthelme is a hero of mine. That's an awesome book. Get ready to laugh a lot.

Merry Xmas. My neighborhood is a place that Xmas forgot--all the stores and restaurants are open and the sidewalks are full of people and Vietnamese women menacing pedestrians with their BMW SUV's and Volvos.

Last night Sayjal and I went to Tweet for brunch, then had a salty dog at Big Chicks while I filled out a job application. After that we saw The Queen (good) then went, had Chinese in Chinatown, and returned to Big Chicks.

Sayjal had to work today so she left me and my other brown friend Sheila joined us. We had only had a couple sips of our beer before a drunk man told Sheila and me that we were "beautiful, gorgeous people," and that he was from the Lower East Side and not since he was last there to had he seen such good-looking people. Strangely, he correctly guessed that she was Guatmalen and I was Mexican. He tried to buy us a drink, but we turned him down, to which he responded, "I'm really sorry to bother you but it's just that you're both so beautiful that I'd like to penetrate you both."

Hi everyone, Merry Xmas and stuff once again. I'm relaxing on the couch and thinking about the eggplant and mozzarella baked ziti dish I'm making for dinner tonight. Got some good books (Iraq Study Group Report, the Motorcycle Diaries) and a MIDI keyboard (!) among other things for presents this year, and everyone seemed to like what I got them. I helped my dad set up his iPod (his big present) this afternoon, and I put a bunch of music on it for him. I can't wait to see him listening to N.W.A.

The papasan chair is gone. I'm sorry if anyone wanted it, but I doubt that anyone does, given the reaction it got last time Jenny offered it up. First I noticed that it was enormous and crowding my living room. Then I moved it into the bedroom, and noticed that it was even more enormous in there. Now it's enormous in the alley.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 03:43 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm glad it was in my living room for a couple of months, though, and I was thankful for it when I had nothing else to sit on. I watched movies in it. I fell asleep in it.

*cue Oscar-style montage of me watching classic movies, intercut with shots of me sleeping in a big-ass chair*

Saw Borat tonight and couldn't stop with the laughing. Hilarious, with great satiric sensitivity. It rode the line beautifully.

After watching episodes of Ali G. on HBO on demand I thought I would cringe through the whole thing, but instead I busted a gut. I loved it the mix of candid and scripted material.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 03:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, Borat. So, so funny.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 03:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Drunk! Typing accomplished only slowly, with many corrections. Poss the bset night of my home time.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Ooh, time to play truth-or-dare, L.!

― Eazy (Eazy), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Could do! Who but you and I are around?

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Only me, and I'm crepey. Best not for the truth or the dare.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Kenan, you know I don't give a shit. Would tell you anyway.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:37 (seventeen years ago) link

Ugh, I smell like campfire.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Ok, let's do this thing.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:39 (seventeen years ago) link

How do you do an online dare?

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:39 (seventeen years ago) link

DID YOU KNOW THAT THE 90'S WERE THE TIME WHEN MUSIC HIT ITS PINNACLE? After the 90's I stopped caring, with only occasional acts that spark anything like the passion I had back then. At Lucky Strike (bowling alley on the premises of the River East 21 Cinema) tonight they played almost 100% 90's and I saw what a glorious period that was. I want it back.

xpost--I have double-dosed on Xanax, so T or D could be fun. I also had a big giant Jim Beam Black, 2 Bud lights and the another JB, which I snuck into the movie in its rocks glass.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Who starts? I already peed in the woods twice tonight, so I'm feeling okay with the majority of dares. Haha XP.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:39 (seventeen years ago) link

HI JESSE!!!!

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh god, Hi, Laurel. Penetrate me.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:41 (seventeen years ago) link

You pick a foreign object and I'll consider it.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Someone dare me to say that I LURV the Smashing Pumpkins circa Gish-Melon Collie. I'll take that dare.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:42 (seventeen years ago) link

I have posted about that bowling alley before, I think. Classic.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:43 (seventeen years ago) link

Jesse, you lose. I love love LOVE Siamese Dream. Still.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:44 (seventeen years ago) link

I'll see that, and raise you "August and Everything After" by Counting Crows.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:45 (seventeen years ago) link

You pick a foreign object and I'll consider it.

I'll take Big Purple Dildo for $1000, Bob.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:45 (seventeen years ago) link

"August and Everything After" by Counting Crows.

I think we can be friends after all. That's a really great record.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:46 (seventeen years ago) link

TS: 90's or 80's???

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Bra is starting to pinch, removed it in secret girl way without substantially disarranging any clothing. That should count as a dare, I think. So you both owe me a Truth, if I could only think of a question I cared enough about to ask the two greatest exhibitionists of ILX.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:47 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost 80's. Easy.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Easier if we can include Depeche Mode's Violator in the 80's. Come on, guys. It's just under the wire.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Where does Violent Femmes album come in? With the tribal art thing on the cover? Included that Fall Out the Window song.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I think 90s, in my case. I went to college '94-'98 so that's preferable. All I remember from the '80s is hair metal and "Electric Blue" by Icehouse.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:51 (seventeen years ago) link

For instance, the (in)famous Skid Row song, which I only heard on 104.5 Sunny FM and thought for ages was "Yukon Wild" instead of "Youth Gone Wild." Thank you, Jack London.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:52 (seventeen years ago) link

xxpost You're in luck. Or not. That's the cover of a best-of comp.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:53 (seventeen years ago) link

HELLO I AM DRUNK WHERE ARE YOU ALL?

XZP: hmm, maybe so. My roommate had it.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:53 (seventeen years ago) link

God, who could make such a deicision? Around 1998 or so I stopped caring about anything I didn't already like.

----this post was just interrupted by my co-worker P@xs0n who was sobbing b/c her grandfather is dying and she has to fly to Seattle and I will be house and dog (!!) sitting for her. Oy.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Re: Femmes. Nothing is as good as the first album. Not even the other songs of theirs that are AWESOME. 1983.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:55 (seventeen years ago) link

hmm, maybe so

I promise you, I promise you.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:56 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:57 (seventeen years ago) link

god i feel like a fucking heel because she had wanted to hang out todya and i avoided her because she gets really weird after a few drinks --showing her mom's ashes, her journals, telling you that you are the most beautiful person she's ever known, inside and out, etc.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Less music-related nostalgia, more truth or dare.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:57 (seventeen years ago) link

We should tak the Truth or Dare to IM. Can we open a gchat group or something? Do I have to download AIM for this purpose? Because I'll do it.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:57 (seventeen years ago) link

The upside: I get to stay in her nice condo on State and Madison, 3 blocks from work, in-unit w/d, with a FUCKING DOGGY WOGGY!

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:58 (seventeen years ago) link

JAYMC IS LURKING

― Learn to ignore what the photographer saw (kenan), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I absolutely love Siamese Dream. That was a turning point in my musical life. The pinnacle, probabaly.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 26 December 2006 05:59 (seventeen years ago) link

is there such a thing as g groups?
