i was in a meeting from noon to 1:45, cafeteria was closed by the time i got over there. : (
i’m soooooooo huuuunnnnnnnnnnngry.
also, i spent half the meeting fantasizing about the 1/2 of a pizza i have in my fridge. like actually trying to devise plausible excuses so i could go home and re-heat that fucker.
Tell them you’re concerned you may have to shovel something.
someone bring Kevin a sandwich, too.
who has a meeting from noon to 1:45 and doesn’t provide food? bastards!
not only that sister horseshoe but it’s a recurring meeting! second monday of the month. i had planned to grab something at 11:30 then got sidetracked.
i’m having tomato, fresh mozzarella, and basil on a bâtard : D
buffalo?
Dagwood sandwich =
-1 live fish (whole)
-1 fried egg
-1 lobster (whole)
-1 green olive
-2 italian sausages
-2 carrots (whole)
-Swiss cheese
-Spaghetti
now I am dreaming about this amazing burger I had recently that involved a fried egg. I shake my fist at you, gear!
There’s also assorted lunchmeats on there. And what are those discs in the middle? Kiwi?
Eazy: you forgot what appears to be an entire yellow onion, cut into 1/4 inch slices; peas; and various forms of mysterious lunchmeat.

mmm egg burger : P
onion, I think. how I love you, onion!
Whatever you think of the rest of the sandwich, an entire lobster is just a bad idea.
In addition to my meatloaf sandwich I got a pastrami + salami sandwich for dinner, since I’m going to have to hit the road right after work. It’s taking all my self-control not to eat it right now.
Ah, zee onion. Such a beeeautiful theeng.
Peas and carrots in the same bite makes sense, but egg/fish/spaghetti?
carbonera al pesce
I have a real pastrami problem. like, whenever I try to make a pastrami sandwich, the pastrami doesn’t make it it to the sandwich, because it all gets stuffed in my face.
hi I fear I’m revealing too much, guys!
to be fair, Eric, I don’t see any evidence that the fish is alive!
That’s a very Atkins sandwich you’re eating, ‘shoe.
xpost—a fish that died with a grin on its face, then...
the closest thing i’ve seen to one of those sandwiches is at this place on lincoln ave (in santa monica : / )
It’s singing!
oh fair enough. that’s kind of disturbing.
There’s a fancy burger bar that opened recently near Clark and Wrightwood, next to The Wiener’s Circle. They offer all kinds of burgers (many of which sound good), but their priciest one is a lobster/burger combo.
It’s a baby dolphin, isn’t it?
I like lobster and I love beef, but I don’t think I would love a lobster burger.
Steak and lobster in one bite doesn’t sound appealing.
However,
i went out for dinner and drinks and bar trivia on friday and had ordered a big assed steak. actually, it wasn’t the butt steak but it was still pretty f’ing good. i should’ve told them to keep the broccoli and give me extra garlic mashed potatoes. because they were awesome too.
appropos of nothing:

this isn’t tittwis
HAHAHA #5
I know. That’s the one that made me choke a little.
okay well I guess I’m less hungry now, so thanks?
oral on a girl in that condition = ‘the parting of the red sea’
Ph no. I’m not getting dragged into that one again.
I like “walking along the beach in soft focus.”
i like #7
update on my all-consuming hunger: I made pasta and did not put it in a sandwich. eating now.
40 minutes until i can leave and i’m not sure i can stay awake. i got about 110 minutes of sleep last night and i started crashing, hard, about 90 minutes ago. i’m having trouble typing and greater difficulty in keeping my head from lolling over onto my shoulders.
i hope i can make it to the blue line. there’s a small chance i could wake up at o’hare today.
I found the Frightened Rabbit (band the FFs opened for a few weeks ago) album on teh t0rrentz, I’ve been listening to it today, and I likes it.
New Dino Jr. is already leaked!
that reminds me, who did the handy work of placing the ff’s sticker directly above the left urinal in the bottle’s mens room? i hope to god you wore gloves.
Hmm, I put one on the condom machine, next to the right urinal. Not sure about the other one.
if you’re facing the urinals this was definitely the left one. and if you’re not facing the urinals, what are you? a fucking animal or something?
I remember in grade school, there was a rash of “peeing” competitions in the boys room. They’d see who could stand farthest away from the drain in the floor and still hit it. You didn’t want to go in there after that.
Why did I put peeing in quotes?
apropos of nothing, other than killing time before i have to go teach, i saw Lives of Others, last night and really like it, much more than Pan’s Labyrinth. although i keep wanting to call Lives of Others “How the Other Half Lives,” because i was reading about Jacob Riis this weekend, too.
also, i’d just like to say being able to play basketball outside in the middle of February is a delight.

hi dere
as it turns out, i have nothing interesting to say.
Me, neither.
I’ve been working at a laptop in a Panera for the past hour, watching a 60-ish guy from Istambul hit on every pretty lady who sits anywhere near him. Now he is wearing his winter cap and sunglasses. They are all very indulgent and patient with him, until he proposes sex.
He’s not unlike Serge Gainsbourg.
I’m IMing a friend of mine who lives far away and it’s making me sad. I don’t like being sad. I’m going to eat some ice cream.

Okay, I’m not sad now because I’m going to visit my far away friend over spring break. Hopefully!
Tulsa, OK here I come!
I celebrated not being sad any more by starting a new thread. Go make it awesome, Chicago.
I am uploading a “chilly” mix that I made, mostly for Jenny, but I’ll put it on the blog for anyone who wants it.
... in about 45 minutes.

I love boomkat

I like this photo on the Yahoo home page: “Torn Between Two Soul Mates?”
Yesterday Courtney and I were eating sushi at a place on Broadway near Cornelia and we saw Jeff walk by, so I called him and we witnessed him pulling his phone out of his pocket and ignoring my call. Then I cried. Then I ate a delishi bite of sushi.
Finished cleaning my room, and it’s like this now:

Didn’t make the bed. Oh, fuck it.
OK, I’ve read through some of this thread and though I’m late, I want to say:
- The Mac guy is cute. I really, strongly miss the Dell Boy. The PC guy inspires pity in me.
- I love skiing, and it doesn’t cost very much money if you live near some mountains. I never paid more than around $30, including lift tickets and ski rentals. One of the drawbacks to living in Chicago is that the skiing possibilities are limited and dissapointing. I learned to ski in Montana.
xpost— nice.
That is all for now.
Oh, and NIGHT SKIING is especially fun.
I really, strongly miss the Dell Boy.
You are alone in this. Much like preferring a hairy back.
What? I don’t prefer a hairy back. At all! That’s Jenny.
Loyola doesn’t have an application fee? ¿Que?
I’m just saying, liking the Dell dude puts you in a small club.
With its own special sauce.
Oh. Pee on me.
just to be clear, we’re talkign about his guy?

You cream over this guy? really? you may be alone in the universe.
I didn’t say I “cream” over him. I just really liked him. That’s a bad pic. He is cute.
From the article that goes with the pic you posted:
Steven has now reached cult status.
But Ben Curtis, who plays Steven in the popular ads, doesn’t try to figure out his newfound fame. “It’s still a mystery to me,” says Curtis, 21, an acting student at New York University in Manhattan.
Dell receives fan mail from a whole spectrum of people, from senior citizens to teen-age girls, USA Today reports.
But Ben Curtis, who plays Steven in the popular ads, doesn’t try to figure out his newfound fame. “It’s still a mystery to me,” says Curtis, 21, an acting student at New York University in Manhattan.
Why is the ad so successful? It could be something in the pitchman’s eyes, or eyebrows. Mostly, people appear to like his humor....
“I’ll take the guy before I take the computer,” added a fan who spotted him....
Curtis is so popular that it became difficult for him to complete a photo shoot this week without a fan shouting or running over to grab a little bit of him....
But Steven’s appeal goes beyond his youthful age group. “I think he’s the best thing since sliced bread,” said one white-haired gentleman in Times Square, perhaps indicating the Dell guy does not appeal only to the teen set.
from senior citizens to teen-age girls
Where are you on that spectrum?

Now THAT’S what I’m talking about.
Mostly, people appear to like his humor....
DUDE. THIS IS FALSE.
xpost, OK, you’re right. That’s kinda hot.
I’m alone with a lot of other vocal fans, apparently.
“He soon got the part after about 100 folks tried out. (WAY TO GO, BEN!) If he hadn’t, where would we all be with out him? Ben also has an awesome September 11th story where he saved a woman at a subway.”
“Ben Curtis, I worship you!!”
“The coolest guy in the world”
I take it back; I didn’t realize that he was actually hot. I though he was just the Dell guy. And I want to punch the Dell guy.
“The coolest guy in the world”
That is really pushing it.
holy shit that’s not a joke, is it?
Jesse, I take back everything I took back. This guy is a douchbag extraordinaire.
Bodhisattva.
Die. Die. Die.

SHOCKING!
JESSE, GET YOUR DICK OUT OF YOUR HEART.

I’m not trying or expecting to be his friend. As a guy in an ad, I enjoy seeing him. Fin
ok. sorry to get riled.
BUT GOD WHAT A DOUCHE.
Yeh. He’s young and dumb. And full of...uh...himself.
His hot, white, creamy self.
KENAN SOMETIMES PEOPLE HAVE OPINIONS THAT ARE DIFFERENT THAN YOURS AND YOU NEED TO JUST FUCKING RELAX ABOUT IT.
You’re right, though. The Dell kid is a total douche.
Casino gig = soul sucking. The motto on their billboard was something like “Come for a night, leave with a story!” or some bullshit. One of the trombone player’s decided his story was “I’ve never seen poor, unhappy old people smoke so much.”
