So my computer appears to be broken. Meaning, it won’t turn on. It could be something big, could be something small. Who knows.
Stay tuned for more ranting/relief…
More Quizzes…or just one quiz, I guess.

You scored as Mindfuck. Congratulations, you scored Mindfuck. You’ve probably seen a lot of movies, and have grown to hate mainstream shit. You’re looking for the movie that will leave you breathless, and with 21 questions to think about. Check out: Donnie Darko, Being John Malkovich, Pulp Fiction, Memento.

Very true. I thought for sure it’d be mindless action flick, but hey…
Tinker, tinker with your little toy…
I’ve been doing more playing with the new blog software and Firefox and whoa mamma, them be sweet. Firefox has very easy RSS feed capabilities, so now I can take sites like Fark and livejournal and put quick little “live bookmarks” at the top that give me the latest headlines (or titles of journal entries). And WordPress? Why, it’s RSS capable. So people can do likewise with the brilliance I spew out so recklessly. I’ve even added RSS syndication to my Friendster page.
It’s a smorgasbord of technobabble. I’ve also added more links to the sidebar over yonder, and I’ll have them all placed properly presently. There are other things I’d like to tweak, add and mess with. It’s like moving into a new apartment.
Also: Firefox has skins and themes, a la Winamp, so you can customize the look of it. I’m sure there are plenty of other little bells and whistles on the hard core techie side that make it cooler, but that stuff just goes over my head, and I like being able to just fiddle and adjust the stuff I have so it looks the way I want and not be overly concerned about the details. I hate preset things and templates and shit like that that you can’t edit and build from. Like all those “helpful” Microsoft things that pop up and try to get you to do things their way. Let me do it my way, okay? Thanks.
I got to reading old Blogger entries from when I switched over from LJ. Oh man, that’s some crazy shit.
Okay, I have real work to do. Honestly, work that’s not playing with internet toys and football.
3,6,9, damn I’m fine, I remain…
So as you may or may not be able to tell, we’ve switched blogging tools, from B2 to WordPress. There are some minor changes, like registering for comments, but it keeps the blog spam away. I’ll almost miss it. I’m still tweaking the links and stuff on the side, but we’ll whittle that out soon. It should be a blast. Oooooh, a blast.
So yeah, that’s the news. I also switched over to Mozilla Firefox as a broswer, which is way cooler than Internet Explorer. It’s way better, and apparently more people are switching over every day. Take that, Bill Gates!
This weekend Kenzie and I watched Garden State and Anchorman. Both are excellent flicks. Oh Will Ferrell. I also picked up Shaun of the Dead on DVD, which is an excellent, excellent movie also.
Ugh. I’m tired, and I need a haircut. Somehow, I think sleeping will come before trimming.
I’m still not sure if I’m going to my Reunion yet or not. I’m not sure what everyone else’s plans are, or if I can afford to go. I need to work on that. But yeah, I’d like to, but if none of my people are going to go, then why bother? Maybe I’ll just take a vacation regardless. Some place sunny, with my honey (that doesn’t cost a lot of money).
And finally, I took a Harry Potter quiz, and the results are as follows:

You scored as Sirius Black. You are a gifted wizard and very loyal to your allegiance. Whilst you have a big heart and care very much about those around you, you can be a little arrogant and reckless at times.

So there you go.
Sorry I ate your chocolate squirrel, I remain…
Oh wait, you’re serious. Let me laugh even harder…
January 21st, 2005 | by Thacher ClevelandFirst, a little bit of musings using the 50 most used words people put in search strings and end up here…
The Demonweasel and its Mp3 song download. Like, how you download that Simon commercial for Black Chris? The name Mechashiva make man love music, like “Fettes Vette,” “Geico song,” and “Hello, Marlboro.” Demonweasel Download: Tiny Porn House video. The Black Demonweasel Venture man …something, and its bar drawrings that star its brothers pictures. The Radiostorm Mp3 song, “Chappelle Cock,” that name cricket lyrics. How tiny, elven whore, porn star Simon Geico Chappelle Venture, pictures this wild out-back Demonweasel house.
I feel better now, in a beat poet kind of way.
So I’m in love. Love, love, love, sweet, gooey, disgusting, make everyone around me sick love. So there. It’s really, really good and I’m really, really happy. You’d think after fifteen minutes of pounding only fifty different words into something resembling cohesion I’d want to use more words but I guess not. Other words I’d use a bunch of times would be things like “wonderful,” “blissful,” and “forever.”
My Britney Box has a watcher but no bids. It ends tonight, so fingers crossed. I’m glad that of all the work eBaying I’ve busted my ass to do this week may well be the most lucrative and all I’m concerned about is a box of Britney Spears crap. What a country.
Writing chugs along. In addition to being a great girlfriend, Kenzie is also a great aide in the realm of reading things and telling my if they suck, and what I can do better and whatnot, probably the best ever in that category, so go me (and her, by association…you’d think it’d be “go her,” but I’m “go me”-ing myself because I found her and that’s a great accomplishment. And I’m a narcissistic asshole. But I’m very pretty).
I haven’t been following basketball at all lately. Dunno why, just haven’t had the urge. I’ve found that I get real excited for the star, back off a bit, the all-star game comes along, I’m still a little backed off, and then as we head towards the playoffs I dive back in. I’m really disappointed that the Atlantic region (Boston, New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia) has been such a…disappointment. But hey, I wouldn’t have any appointment, y’know?
Matt, my internet pimp connection, is setting me up with a wordpress system, which will probably be “go-live”-able in the very near future. If your computer sparks and shoots fire when you try to come here next time, that’s not why. Seek help immediately, computers aren’t supposed to do that.
Y’know what’s sick? I’ve been getting up at about 7am lately, turning on the TV and watching Buffy reruns on FX. Because it’s season five, and I love it. Even better, this morning they had a bonus episode (because some movie ran long yesterday afternoon, because they rerun the reruns they ran the day before at 3 & 4pm the next morning at 7 & 8am, and since there was only one episode yesterday, they just dropped in a different, out of sequence episode) from season 7, which while not a great season, had some real gems, and this one is one of my favorites. The one with R.J, and the jacket, and now Kenzie is going to pester me about it because she’s only watched up to the end of season five and hasn’t gotten her hot little hands on season six yet. Mmmmm, season six. Once more with feeling. I don’t own that season, but I do have that episode on my computer.
I was going to write something really snarky, but I didn’t. Well, not right now. I will at some point later, because really, I’m just that way.
“What do you think, the hospital?”, I remain…
P.S. Sometimes blog-spam is fun. Example: “Blameless, shameless. The more desperate the eroticism, the more hopelessly women show off their heavy breasts, opening their mouths and screaming out, the greater the attraction. In contrast, a promise of light awaits at the limits of the mystical outlook. I find this unbearable and soon returned to insolence and erotic vomit – which doesn’t respect anybody or anything. How sweet to enter filthy night and proudly wrap myself in it. The whore I went with was as uncomplicated as a child and she hardly talked. There was another one, who came crashing down from a tabletop – sweet, shy, heartbreakingly tender, as I watched her with drunken, unfeeling eyes.”
Only one thing could draw me away from the glow of electric sex in the window
January 17th, 2005 | by Thacher ClevelandHello, hello, is this thing on?
Between the apocalyptic temperature swings this past week, Kenzie coming to visit and fighting a cold, Iíve totally forgotten that this thing even exists. Itís ridiculous.
Not a whole lot is going on. It feels like Iím constantly adjusting from something or getting ready to do something, which makes just doing things in the intervening time just boring a lame. Then again, I *am* boring and lame, so itís not like thatís a big stretch or shock.
Well, maybe I am, maybe Iím not. Iím a bad judge of these things. Sometimes I still labor under the delusions that I could be cool, or hip, or whatever, and then I just have to shrug my shoulders and go ìHey, if it hasnít happened by nowÖî I guess Iíll be happy just being kind of snide and indifferent to most people and saving my affection for those that are not massive wastes of space.
Ahhhh, winter. Dark, bleary and self-indulgent. This time of year blows. Allie got sick on Wednesday, so I went and picked up from school early and had her at work with me, which was fun and thankfully brief. In that time Iím sure she managed to infect me, but I held it off through Kenzieís visit before succumbing to it Sunday, where I sat at work staring at a computer screen and trying to keep my sinuses from just falling out on the keyboard. It doesnít help that when the temperature changes about 60 degrees in two days. Thatís just not natural, people. If weíre going to have an apocalypse, why donít we get to have a cool one with zombies or some shit.
Speaking of, I watched the new ìDawn of the Deadî for the second time with Kenzie and my neighbor this weekend. Man, that movie is a blast. It has all those good, classic zombie movie elements: bad luck, bad plans, a guy whoís all ìthis is my spot, you guys go awayî and chainsaws. Mmmmmm, chainsaws.
So thankfully I think Iím over being sick, aside from feeling like being cored like an apple. I have stuff I have to do tomorrow, none of which is very thrilling or life altering, but I suppose it has to get done and that just makes it boring and oppressive. Ugh, I hate it.
I need to find a way to focus. Thatís all there is to it. I may be tired and worn out, but still, enough of this bullshit.
24 is fun, and I love terrorist family. I hope we have Terrorist Family all season. Those fuckers are crazy. Battlestar Gallactica is just enough dork for me to keep my street cred, so thatís nice too. And hopefully, itíll be Steelers/Eagles in the ëBowl, but itíll probably be Pats/Eagles. Nothing against the Pats, but Iím kinda sick of ëem at this point.
Oh, and proof that I like to have fun at my job, hereís an auction I had to put together with all the crap we had lying around the back room. Feel free to pass it along to the savings concious person in your life.
