i’d like to see these guys live. it would be a great show.

today, i returned from vacation
a couple weeks ago, i ordered some new shoes from zappos.com. short story is that i futzed up the order, but it was saved by one of their awesome customer support reps. anyway… when i unpacked my laptop this morning, i noticed a envelope sitting on my […]

i did the big k 5k run/walk yesterday. i didn’t really know what to expect going in, since it was a first time for me, but i had a great time and it was a lot of fun. the course was a lot more hilly than my normal walk at winton woods park, […]

got home an evening filled with dvine and potbelly, and proceded to watch the celebrity fit club from my tivo. there was a point when i liked to watch saved by the bell. recently, if i was flipping through channels and saw it on, i might even watch it. one of the […]

the weekend server maintenance for work is complete… changed the routine a bit to make it more schedule friendly… now, i stop the database and start the backup procedure before going to bed. that way, when i wake up in the morning everything is ready to go. no more waiting all day […]

i must have accidentally flipped a bit today, while ordering some new shoes today at zappos.com. the zip code in my shipping address ended up having a 5 in it, where it should have been a 4. i noticed the error 2 hours later, and sent an email to their customer service department, […]

watched most of the italian job on fx tonight. i’ve always liked that movie. i like the cool car scenes, the napster references, and charlize theron is always a plus. definitely worthy of a re-watch.
also, this is insane. you must watch it now.

thanks to bragg, i now know the awesomeness of home emporium first hand. i’d heard of this place in the past from a few people (mostly tony hudson), but had never been there. until today, that is. as we walked thought the store (the old sam’s club store on ridge rd.), […]

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.
the first one is this sweet tetris shelving unit…

the other, tetris ice cubes…

is it a coincidence that i need both furniture […]

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.
