i added one of my new favorite sites, instructables, to my rss reader (google reader) this afternoon. and the best part is that two (not one) tetris-related projects were posted today. freaking awesome.

zoolander was on tv yesterday afternoon. i watched about 20 minutes of it. that movie still makes me laugh every time i watch it. jerry stiller is a freaking riot. he’s always funny. i’m going to miss seeing him (along with the rest of the cast) on king of queens.

so, i was looking for upcoming shows at bogarts this summer and found this gem. that’s right… it’s reel big fish, less than jake, streetlight manifesto, and against all authority. sounds like a good show to me. also, in august, the warped tour hits riverbend. this looks good as well… i’d love […]

Thursday, May 24th, 2007 by brian

so i’m trying to decide if i want to buy a house or continue to rent apartments that i don’t like. i’ve been searching through the sibcy cline for a couple of hours (on a recomendation by artie). so, now my question is this…
where are the houses that i can afford to buy?
seriously. […]

today is the greatest day I’ve ever known

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007 by brian

today feels different. yesterday (and several days before) i felt angry. angry about working late. angry about gas prices and traffic jams. angry for many reasons and just angry in general. today, it’s like a 180-degree flip. what’s changed? i’m not sure… a good workout at the park? […]

fighting evil by moonlight
winning love by daylight
never running from a real fight
she is the one named sailor moon.
yes, that is the sailor moon themesong. i’ve had the osaka popstar cover of it stuck in my head ever since i heard it while hitting the trail at winton woods park this evening. while i’m […]

Dear Reader(s),
You may have noticed that some content had disappeared last month. During an blog ‘redesign’ I accidentally fubar-ed a couple of database tables that contained what some would call important information (at least wordpress, the software that this blog runs on, does). After several weeks (or minutes) of work, I restored the […]
