Right now, there may be something vibrant, but I don’t know what. Today has been quite the long day after an equally long week. I got up around 8 this morning, and have been non-stop until now working on and around the house. We’re hosting a going-away party for a friend and co-worker of Bea’s… Continue reading Is there any part of me that isn’t tired?
DUI Decimal System
Unbeknownst to many, the NOPD is required by the Louisiana Supreme Court to inform the public of upcoming DUI checkpoints. How they disperse the information is pretty passive, and I think it should be a little more active. I had an idea this afternoon, and have built out a “twitter app” that does just this.… Continue reading DUI Decimal System
Not quite my “drunk post”
I was able to log some hours at the R-Bar tonight, and not only did I get some free samples, but my tab was picked up too – I helped the bartender – a good friend – move a bookshelf. Anyways, outside of the usual High Lifes, here were my comps: Hibiki – “A… Continue reading Not quite my “drunk post”
Two (times nine) Minutes to Midnight
Again I find myself writing up a post at the almost last minute. NaBloPoMo has been a good exercise – gotten me to get off my ass and write about things that are long overdue – but I’m pretty much done. I just feel that at this time, I’ve exhausted my post pool. I guess… Continue reading Two (times nine) Minutes to Midnight
Goblins? In my Necropolis? It’s more likely than you think.
Today was every other Tuesday, so you know what that means: D&D! We we on a skeleton krewe today – just Paul as the DM, Chris/Grak, Allen/Marduk, and me/Oran. We had to supplement our group with Clarence, our NPC (Non-Playable Character) friend. Despite missing two of our company, we decided to do a dungeon crawl… Continue reading Goblins? In my Necropolis? It’s more likely than you think.
What a difference a year makes
So, a year a go, this happened: I can’t believe that was a year ago. Time flies.
It’s Goddamn Electric
So, the A/C guy came by Saturday. Saturday! Turns out, his company is no longer a subsidiary of Dial One – I can let my little dinky back-up switch go for that. All perceived grievances are now annulled. While he was here, I had him look at the front unit that had frozen up the… Continue reading It’s Goddamn Electric
Well, if it’s gonna be that kind of party…
Bea and I went to a party at Jonah‘s house this afternoon, and sure enough, some guy ended up on the floor with his pants full of pee. Of course, that guy’s age is measured in months, not years or decades, and that seems to be the road we’re on. Not that I mean that… Continue reading Well, if it’s gonna be that kind of party…
A Different Kind of Hurricane Prep
At some point yesterday, the A/C for the front of the house froze up. When we finally realized this, I killed the A/C, made a mental note to go get a new air filter, and moved on. I decided that even though it was about 85° in the front, I’d still sleep upstairs – the… Continue reading A Different Kind of Hurricane Prep
Water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink
I’ve had a lingering tiredness lately, and I think I can pin it down to more or less two reasons: 1) I’ve been exceedingly busy. This too will pass. 2) I’m not exercising enough. I used to bike commute daily, and run every Thursday night. Hell, I used to bike everywhere. But now, I almost… Continue reading Water water everywhere, but not a drop to drink
