The other guy and I are still in the emailing stage.

It is an established aspect of my personality that I really dislike process and love results, while simultaneously being really indecisive, tending to deliberate forever and be averse to being judicious.

Kenan, how does she feel about "Honey with Colts"?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:29 (seventeen years ago) link

i've got too many problems, both physical and mental, for me to be dating anyone right now but dear god in heaven i could go for a one night stand.

I had never heard the lesbo usage of "boi" before John talked about it.

― Metrosexual Healing (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:32 (seventeen years ago) link

(the weird thing is, I could understand if she never called me back after the one night...but why call me once and sound all positive about going something, and then disappear for two weeks?)

I feel the same way about myself. Actually, make that "to be in an LTR," but I still want to be off the market.

she probably violated her parole and is back in the joint.

Maybe that's because you're not a lesbian, and I am.

The guy who just finished fixing the copier machine, explaining to me why it took 5 days to replace this missing part:
Well, you know how it is. You can't just buy the dress without buying the shoes, the jewelry, and everything else.

Thank you, stranger, for putting that copier tech talk into a language I can understand!

So how about this weather, eh? One minute it's pouring the snow, the very next it's brilliantly clear and blue!

― Metrosexual Healing (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:35 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, i was snow blind when i came back from lunch.

Jordan, Do you have an email address for her too? Maybe something is wrong with that number or she can't check messages from whereever she is..?

― Calico (calico), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

today is valentine's day and in four days it's the one-year anniversary of when i met my gf (at a saint etienne show!). before i met her i had a series of awkward dating experiences which were exercises in gamesmenship. i'm glad to be off the market :-p

holy fuck the city locations for homemade pizza co. all deliver! you can't imagine how disproportionately happy this makes me.

― chicago kevin is back in a new york groove (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:38 (seventeen years ago) link

I know! We discovered this when we went in to get a pizza last weekend. Delivery is only $2!

Ugh, I hate this. There was that one girl a couple years ago who I spent the night with and made plans to see again when I was walking her home in the morning, and then I never heard from her again, after several e-mails and phone calls.

The back part of the Rennaisance hotel is cordoned off because of the falling ice. Not just little warning signs, but the sidewalk is closed.

― Metrosexual Healing (crunkleJ), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:40 (seventeen years ago) link

the last girl i was seeing before my gf ditched me without warning on my BIRTHDAY. no call, no nothing.

in four days it's the one-year anniversary of when i met my gf (at a saint etienne show!).

Awww!

I think my brother was at that show.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Nope, just the phone number. :(

There actually is a homemade pizza co.? I thought Nick just meant that you guys were making pizza from scratch.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:42 (seventeen years ago) link

In 25 days it will be the one-year anniversary of when I met Kr.

yes kenan, this has been discussed here recently.

i have a pact with her. if sarah cracknell comes a-callin', i get one 'exception'. also: if francoise hardy circa '64 appears.

I don't know who my celebrity exemption is. I think hers is David Duchovny.

I probably shouldn't have told you guys that.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm going to call my record "How to Bake the Big Cookie".

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

That's such a sad story, John! (and gear!)
My 3-yr relationship in college ended with a breakup on my birthday (me being the dumpee). It was a complete shock.

In 5 days, it will be my 8 year 3 monthiversary with Nick.

― Calico (calico), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:46 (seventeen years ago) link

i think hers is what's his name from luna.

i had a girl break up w/me on my 23rd birthday. she was an "older woman" and immediately started dating another dude named kevin in a delightful bit of foreshadowing.

― chicago kevin is back in a new york groove (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 21:48 (seventeen years ago) link

I think I met him about a month before we started going out, but I'm not 100% positive.

Jordan, we usually do make pizza from scratch, but everyone gave this place rave reviews so we tried it.

They're giving away mini chocolates outside of Borders on State, and it's yummy.

Kevin, I dated a guy briefly in high school who ended up having a second girlfriend (ie: at the same time) also named Sarah.

a-hole.

I am listening to Echo & the Bunnymen. Why? I don't know.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:10 (seventeen years ago) link

DAN, YOU MUST WAIT UNTIL YOU GIVE YOURSELF TO HIM.

― chicago kevin is back in a new york groove (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:11 (seventeen years ago) link

I was going to say it sounds surprisingly like the Arcade Fire. But I don't get the reference, sorry. I think this is the first time I've ever listened to them.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Have you not heard "Lips Like Sugar"?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:13 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, it's from "killing moon".

― chicago kevin is back in a new york groove (chicago kevin), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:14 (seventeen years ago) link

J, no, it's not on this record (I'm listening to some co-worker's iTunes library).

"The Killing Moon" is up in a couple tracks though. I'm going to fast forward to it 'cause I think I can get out of here early again today since my boss is gons.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:15 (seventeen years ago) link

D. Cooper's chin is so bite-able.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I thought that "Lips Like Sugar" was kind of famous. I sort of mentally group it with "So Alive" by Love and Rockets. Probably just songs I heard on WXRT or early '90s Q101.

I think I first heard "Killing Moon" when Pavement covered it.
