Speaking of being a raging alcoholic, I’m going to Old Timer’s tomorrow after my afternoon class (partially in hopes of getting home at a reasonable hour since I have to work early on Friday morning) and encourage all of you who have flexible work schedules to join me.
Sarah you are NOT a bitch. I loves you.
I think Sarah’s attitudes towards alcohol are influenced by the fact that both of her parents are practically teatotalers.
Thanks, Jennycakes.
I just made Valentine’s plans, meaning a yummy dinner at home, cupcakes, and Lost. :-D
Those happen to be Nick’s plans too. Nick, Hi.
Hi guys.
The snowbanks on Lakeshore around 57th street today were quite impressive!
I second Sarah’s non-bitchiness.
Fuck Valentine’s Day.
I am looking forward to my day off on Friday.
I would hang out tomorrow because I have the day off Friday, what time Jenny?
Thus endeth my update. Carry on.
Oh! By the way this was hilarious and made me snort water up my nose: Who wraps up a douche? Worst Valentine’s present ever (FYI, John). Kudos!

A Y-Wing or whatever that is would be pretty sweet.
I’d go for the barrel of money, myself.
They’re only sad because they do not have mouths.
I think maybe what I thought yesterday was something stuck between my molars is actually a chipped tooth.
Aghgh!
At least you have a mouth, dude.
(sry)
Ha.
i have no mouth, but i must scream
CAN I SCREAM?!?!
(I’m listening to Refused)
MmMMmbmbmmmmm. MMmmnbnbmbmbm, mmmm mb mememmmbmbmm.
Those two Refused songs were awesome (the one you’re referencing and the “WHAT FREQUENCY ARE YOU LISTENING? IS IT NOISE OR SWEET SWEET MUSIC?” song).
I like Refused.
I don’t know who Refused is, but the name reminds me of Disturbed or The Used. I am guessing Refused is probably more awesome than either of those bands, though.

Here’s the video for the song I was referencing, “New Noise”:

Wow, I hate that music but they’re such cute emo geeks under the bunny suits.
Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a video for “Liberation Frequency,” the song I was talking about, but you can watch a high school band play it really badly in a gym here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=-UWT5bbTCkY.
If you’re into that kind of thing.
I wonder if I still have that album? I hope I do.
I’ve got it if you don’t. Ack, that record is like 8 years old!
According to Nabisco, I dress like Refused
In a creepy bunny suit?
Or a cute emo geek?
Six of one, half dozen of the other.
Ack, that record is like 8 years old!
October 1998. So, yeah.
I wanna be a screamo in a sweater vest.
Now that’s over and I want to listen to Frodus!
Moxy Fruvous?
I’m on hold to place a pickup request from DHL. Their message begins with, “Due to the winter storm, we are currently experiencing a high call volume...” Excuses, excuses...
I am having a big mac attack.
Apricot walnut rugeleh. Take sides.
The rugelech. I haven’t had a Big Mac in close to 10 years.
Walnuts can fall off the tree and stain the driveways IN HELL, as far as I’m concerned. Apricot-only.
I’ll take the ruglah.
i wonder if rugelach has more or less sugar than a big mac? prolly close to the same.
LOVE WALNUTS
Apricot is okay.
I didn’t mean take sides between the rugeleh and the Big Mac. I just meant exactly what I said.
Apricot-Walunt Rugeleh. Take sides.
(At Argo Tea they spell it “rugeleh.”)
Hot Doug’s, this Saturday, 11:30 am. So let it be written, so let it be done.
Rugelach
XP: SO SAY WE ALL
I meant to spell it like you did, Jesse. Somehow it acquire a glottal sound when I typed it.
I’m having a tootsie roll. I don’t believe I’ve ever had a Big Mac. When I ate meat, I liked the burgers at Burger King, but not McDonalds, though sometimes I’d just get fries there.
A guy at work posted a 24 calendar on the wall his mom gave him. Oh, I barely remember when 24 was my TV on DVD addiction...
I’m having a tootsie roll tootsie pop.
Yesterday on the train there was a woman with a Bible doing some LOUD preaching. Unfortunately, she had 3 fans on the train who joined her in prayer and said loud “Amens” and “Hallelujahs” and “Praise Hims!” She took a prayer request from one man.
One guy yelled at her to STFU, but the others shut him up; one guy said, “That’s the devil trying to silence you, Sister! Speak the Truth!”
Grrrrr.
How do you all have so many run ins with crazies? All I see are grumpy commuters.
I misled you all with my prior statement.
xpost—You should have started shaking and receiving the holy spirit.
And irritating subway musicians. I hate those dudes. They do not add color, they are just bad.

Yay, winning!

It smells faintly of antifreeze in my office.
I want to express preliminary interest in going to Hot Doug’s Saturday, but will reserve judgement until I see how I feel that morning.
I don’t think this woman was necessarily mentally ill, just a rabid, obnoxious Christian.
I don’t care about snow, or Valentine’s, or nutritional content of ANYTHING today, because I’m wearing these, and they make it all better:

NB: Those are not my legs. Sadly.
Niiice! I want some.
OK, so I am going to be going out on a date sometime next week. But now I am dreading it because I’m scared of dates. I reeeealllly don’t like dating. Would that I could just skip the dating and have an LTR.
He’s from New Orleans. And he works for United (!).
Sarah: www.sockdreams.com!
hott sox!
(plz 2 forgive my lechery)
Wow, those legs.
Hey Jordan, is there any chance of getting on the guest list for Friday’s show? I wasn’t planning on coming, but then I realized that I might be very close to the Green Mill that night, so I could maybe pop in for a little while.
On Saturday I am playing a fundraiser for a GAY ALDERMANIC CANDIDATE.
I want to register for socks from that site for the wedding, um, night.
He’s from New Orleans. And he works for United (!).
Jesse, no! First, he’d convince you to move to NO. Then, he’d be away all the time being a hot flight attendant and not attending to you.
I don’t mind dates, my MO has historically been to get drunk and make out somewhere. It’s transitioning from dates to dating that seems to be the problem. Cue eye roll.
Jesse: at least you know he’s not a boi...?
He’s not a flight attendant. He’s a safety trainer or something.
He actually moved here from San Fran.
Jesse: at least you know he’s not a boi...?
What do you mean?
I thought bois were lesbians.
And Avril Lavigne crushes.
We should do a Thursday drinking event at Dave and Busters one week.
But does he still go on lots of trips?
Is he cuuuute?
xpost 2x
Wow, those legs.
jaymcotm.
I thought bois were lesbians.
How many times can we have this discussion?
boi boi boi!
Just looked at their site. Looks fun.
He’s cute. He’s got grey hair, which is good. He’s 38 I think.
How many times can we have this discussion?
Have we had it before? I don’t remember.
Jesse, isn’t this the guy you wrote back saying how annoyed you were by the cuet butch lesbos?
Hey Jordan, is there any chance of getting on the guest list for Friday’s show?
I’ll try, and send you a txt if I can get you on.
OK cool. Thanks!
No. This is a guy I met out one night and have already made out with.
And FYI (JMC and Laurel) in my vast experience, “boi” (bois, boiz) is a cutesy and annoying name that self-identied twinks (blech) give themselves in their screennames.
I’m familiar with twinks.
Do you ever have a conversation so strange that you just have to let it go? Woman in the office that we’ll call “f”:
“Red hots remind me of high school.”
me: “Yeah, they’re good.”
f: “They should have found these in Iran.”
me: “What?”
f: “Sublime’s color is a lime green.”
Wikipedia gives both definitions.
Yeah, dating is weird.
I left one more message for that girl I met at the show, and if she doesn’t call back then I’m writing it off.
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”?
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.
(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.
