i keep hoping and praying

i keep hoping and praying that they'll stop showing that scary-ass levi's singing bellybutton commercial. i mean, come on, what are they trying to do, give people nightmares?? creepy.

another interesting thought on commercials... has anyone else seen the old navy commercial for the low-rise pants where molly sims says something to the effect of "hips have never been hotter!" ? UM, i think that's false advertising, because #1, none of those models have anything that could even be considered hips, and #2, people who do have hips can't wear the damn pants for fear of looking really dumb. believe me, i tried them on and there's just no way. yuck.

ok, this is so fucking

ok, this is so fucking cool... wil wheaton has a weblog. and it's a good weblog, and he's funny, and he does all the code himself!! and it get 5 stars of coolness from me becasue it's a real page about a real person, even if it is by a famous actor, and it's not some ganky, overproduced, studio designed, promotion shit.
(and if you say you don't know who wil wheaton is, i'd say you're lying.)

ugh, i've gone and fucked

ugh, i've gone and fucked up my internal clock. (i mean, come on, would i ever be up voluntarily at 5:30 am? i don't think so.) i've been staying up late and sleeping late recently, and then yesterday (today??) i slept until three in the afternoon becasue i had the worst headache ever. when i realized at 4 am that i was still reading anna karenina and i wan't the least bit tired, i figured i'd better force myself to stay up until tomorrow night so i can get back on track. i've actully been getting some stuff done... tweaking the new layout, doing laundry and dishes... it's amazing. i think in a little while i'm going to shower and go for a walk...it's so rare that i'm up in the morning that i figure i'd better enjoy it.

so, i went to see

so, i went to see ween last night at palookaville. i'd never seen them before, and it was definetly a change from the jam based, hippie filled concerts i usually go to! it was so strange... short songs, no setbreak, a mosh pit... but, damn, it rocked!! plus, i was extra happy because they played roses are free.

ok, so i finally finshed the new layout. phew! it would have been a lot faster if blogger hadn't kept eating my templates and then spitting them back out all garbled.
anyway, what do you think? (hint: click on "comment" below this entry and let me know.)

weird blast from the past... today i saw se�or davis, my high school spanish teacher. it's a good thin he didn't see me, though, because if he wanted me to speak to him in spanish i would have had to turn and run ;-)

well, jay and silent bob

well, jay and silent bob strike back gets a huge 2 thumbs up from me. if i had three thumbs, i'd give it three thumbs up.
seriously, i laughed my ass off through the whole movie. so good. it's a good thing that i saw clerks, mallrats and chasing amy all within the last two months... actually, i saw clerks and mallrats on monday. i've seen dogma like, 10 times, so no need to brush up on that one (and brushing up is practiacally a neccesity because of all the inside jokes). anyway, thanks to kevin smith for another great movie. everyone, go see it!!

i love the continuity in the cover art of cake albums. look see...

i didn't realize that the new one was already out... i'd heard the new single on the radio a few times, but i figured the album didn't come out until next month or something.

i decided that i'm going

i decided that i'm going to learn guitar. i practiced a bunch tonight, on my sister's guitar and with her well worn chord sheet, and i think i'm doing ok so far. i can play here comes the sun, albeit rather slowly. i'm working on fake plastic trees, too, but that f#m chord is tripping me up. i just don't understand how anyone could contort their fingers into that position.

and damn, do my fingers hurt.

i'm such a geek.. i'm working on another redesign. this will take me a while though, it's a little more complicated in terms of graphic headers and such. i should make a lot more progress after this weekend, since all my program design work will be done by then.

so, i'm in togo's last

so, i'm in togo's last night, getting some dinner, and the guy making my sandwich, says, "so, did you go to florida?"
(of course, i'm wearing a phish shirt, so i know immediately what he's talking about. it's like a secret society...)
"no," i said, "i didn't. i did go to vegas last fall, though."
we chat a moment about phish, i pay for my sandwich, and then i realize ... that i have two sandwiches.
i ordered one, i paid for one, and i had two.

strange.

it seems to me, that

it seems to me, that most of my life, i have always made a huge effort to be a good friend. i think, that because of this, i have never had a shortage of friends in my life. a few have come and gone quickly, others have stuck around a bit longer, and i've managed to keep one good friend for my whole life... all 22 years of it.

but there are times, when for some reason or another, i feel that my efforts are one sided. that regardless of my continued attempt to keep my friendships going, what i'm giving is not coming back to me. maybe it's just a bad day, and maybe i'm overreacting, but i get this feeling much too often to think that it's just my over-charged emotions.
