Cure

May 30, 2011

I'm old school.
Gin and tonic.
Not real tonic, as that is now some kind of novelty.
Two. Too much. too many.
Not enough.
Then I'm sad.
I go running.
I am running to cure my sadness.
I am running away from my sadness.

SIM Happiness

In the game SIMS you have to keep your Sim happy. One way of accomplishing this was to give them an aquarium.
To accomplish, click on the fish tank and select something like "enjoy."
Voila! Sim is happy!

Fish are certainly enjoyable.
Of you play your cards right they can be quiet, low maintenance, affordable, purple friendly pet. Or decoration.

I prefer to think of them as pets.
Mine have names and I give a shit about their feelings and well being.
They are living creatures after all.

I've relocated their home to the corner of my room. A pleasant, zen place for them to be.

I think we will all benefit.

Larger than Life

Apparently Target sells corn.
Actually, I don't think they do.
I'm a bit disgusted by the Fourth of July marketing but not a disgusted as I could be.

I'm I getting old?
Are my meds just working well?
Am I indifferent because Indifferent Rachael is indifferent?

Tune in next week.
Same indifferent time.
Same indifferent channel.

The Past is Now

April 21, 2011

Today is supposed to be the Rapture, again.
I went shopping; having a get together tonight.

At the market I see these: eggsina foam carton.
I have not seen this since I was a wee tot. OK maybe not that long ago but I'm pretty sure not since I lived in the Mid-West

My surprise does not stop there.
The market is a pretty good farmers market you're market. Local and organic produce, vegan food (including vegan pizza rolls!!), hippy doesn't, earth friendly soaps, etc. etc.

Why foam packaged eggs?
Why here and why now?

And what the hell?

Hard @ Work

April, 18, 2011

They put a Google search bar on my browser at work.
I don't slack off much, but everyone else does I figured, why not.

Only when I'm not too busy of course.

Google: endless entertainment. Endless opportunities.

Fancy Sink

May 17, 2011

Conference in Costa Mesa.
Yes, I went to a conference. I know, it does make me seem more like a real adult but I assure you I am still a pretend adult.

This fancy row of fancy towels is fancily presented in a semi-fancy hotel conference area bathroom in a fancy hotel.

Photo worthy IMO.

I got a t-shirt, some pens, a reusable bag, a fancy notebook (I actually have one from whoever went last year that I use as my cookbook), some of those glasses cleaning cloths; an inJEANous schwag idea.

Oh yeah and I learned a lot and made connections.and got our company some kind of VIP status when this company.

But srlsy, it's all about the schwag.

NuCat

May 15, 2011

This is Newcat; or NuCat whatever you fancy. I know her human, Justin.

Her name is actually Smoky but before she had a name she was called Newcat.

I like that better so that's what I call her.

I like to choose my own madness for people's pets.

Taddy is Snowflake
Biscuit Is Josephine
Smokey is Newcat

I know more people with pets...

I better get on renaming them!

Too Cool for School

May 14, 2011

Went to Out of the Closet.
Like ant good second hand store they sell electronics.

This stack of used VCRs was too awesome to not look at as art.

Not Enjoyed

Hondo's jeep.
Poor thing does not run well and was not getting used, so it was stated that it is Not Enjoyed.

Sadly, later that night someone crashed into it (yes, while it was parked) and it is now officially broken.

Xander's Babies

May 14, 2011

The seagulls are back!
I think this is the 4th year these seagulls have made their best on the pylon outside my office on Catalina Landing.
One of them is gimpy. I'm just saying.

It's a Camel!!!!

May 9, 2011

I saw this plushie you at Khol's (again with the weird store) and I HAD to have it.
I thought, "awesome! A cuddly toy camel! I need a new cuddly toy anyway cos Kitty likes them."

The toys are at the check out (for impulse buyers like me) and are for some charity so they are only 5$.

So I grab a camel and go to check out.
I say, "I would like to buy this camel please."
The girl at the counter was amused by my excitement about the camel and asked, "and what animal is this?"

I said, "it's a camel!"
"... It's lt's a llama."
"Ooohhh... Your right! There's no humps!"
Laughter ensued.

Whatever, it's a camel.

Crows are Cool

May 8, 2011

This shot is just too cool to not post.
This crow hung out in the tree long enough to let me get a picture of him.

Thanks Mr. Crow!

Old School

April 7, 2011
Saturday.
Found this treasure at Khol's.
I didn't even know they still made these things.
I was tempted to get one, but as I have no yard to set it up in, I felt it would be futile.

Khol's is such a weird store.

Ladies Room

May 6, 2011

I haven't done any Ladies Room shots in a while.
I went to this bar in Redondo Beach, the Thirsty Club, and this is their door.

Cool little dive bar. Its got a good jukebo, a shuffle board, the bartender was awesome, and the ladies' rom door is hip

King of the Land of Many GBs of Music

May 6, 2011

I think.

I checked out my newest download; a file with a few good industrial bands I've been meaning to get.
I knew it was many gigs, but 6.4 of them are just one band.

I peed from excitement.

Collecting music us a but if an obsession for me.

I have days and days of it.

Devine Decadence

May 5, 2011

Isn't it just wild?

I found my green nail polish.
It's not exactly Devine Decadence, but close enough.

Really, some nail polish company should produce that color if there isn't one already.

I'd buy it. And tons of other weirdo cult musical fans like me.

Perspective

May, 4, 2011

The stairwell in the bank's parking structure.
It's smell reminds me of submarines I've been in.
The smell is really that of cement and metal enclosed spaces; one of my favorite smells.

Stairs are great.

Badgers hang out on the freeway

Driving on the freeway Janessa hit some random thing on the freeway. Its dark and the thing was dark. She exclaimed, "what was that!?"
I said it was a badger.

Badgers are damn cute!!

Ne Op Opping

May 1, 2011

K and G are moving to MD which sucks.
I've spent the last two years of my life ignoring my friends, and I I've really missed out.
Luckily my friends still like me. That makes it easier for me to sores my guilt and be at least a somewhat better friend.
Also it is lucky (for me) that K has tons of clothes she does not want to drag across the country with her.
I love me some clothes!! And I freely offer my love to second hand clothes. Its probably my favorite kind of clothes.

Driving up to The Valley: about $5.
Bunch of free stuff: $ for trash bags.
Realization that I have awesome friends and a pretty awesome life: priceless.

'merica!

April 30, 2011

I went with Jn and her sister to Operation Gratitude Saturday morning. What happens here is that a bunch of people pack up thousands of boxes of random shit to send overseas to a bunch of random troops.

Would this be considered a Mitzvah?
I almost felt like a dick doing it.
Here I am, at home eating delicious salads while there's people over there getting blown up for who knows what.

I mostly hope that at least some of them open these boxes and get a laugh at some of the random shit.

Laughing seems more important that clean socks.

My Beloved West Ham

From egg dyeing night.

One of the kits was sports themed. I tried to make a West Ham egg, but was thwarted. So I made an awesome fake West Ham tattoo.

Don't you go talking about my beloved West Ham!!

Discount Holiday

April 29, 2011

Friday night is egg dyeing night!
Just add about 7 clearance egg dyeing kits, 40 eggs, 9-ish people, and some Sailor Jerry (mostly for me cos I love drinking).

The boxes were confusing and each came with different confusing accessories, the dye tabs looked like X, and we had no idea what colors they were supposed to be.

Good times. Lots of egg salad.

Das Telly

I'm going to give you three seconds. Exactly three fucking seconds to write that stupid looking grin of you face before I gouge out your eyeballs and skullfuck you.
Skullfuck you.
Skullfuck you.
Skullfuck you.
Skullfuck you.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, skullfuck you...
*commence dance music*
(God Module) "lyrics" taken from the film Full Metal Jacket.

Did not know that until last night, when I watched it.

I like God Module better than the movie.
