  • The McRib is back!

    The McRib is back! The sign under the golden arches read. But really, did the McRib ever leave us? Ever? Especially those that had one, I’m sure there’s some molecular remnants that will be with us, forever. Just random how fast food was a theme twice this week. Speakin of vittles, time to steam broccoli…

  • Write your old Quesadilla a Dear John note

    I never took a marketing course in college (it wasn’t required, thank goodness). I suppose if I had, I would have learned some metric that defined the lifespan of the collective consciousness of various demographic segmentations. Big foreign words aside, folks get bored and they need drawn back in, like adding a new product category…

  • a pause

    i woke up early, thanks to the garbage trucks, and decided to read online. The news went quickly over my head with all the speak of war and the economy. I decided to read Live Journal for real stories about folks. I first just linked around and thought how witty I’m not, then a solemn…

  • not every day is deep

    today i went to work. ate a good japanese box lunch. got some stuff done. got all the laundry put away. hung out with a friend most of the evenin playin gamecube (im in a video game mode) and that is about it.

  • Chili cook off

    I woke up early and enjoyed some morning reading with another sunny day pouring through the window. I started early on laundry and getting dishes cleaned and whatnot. I’ve been trying to get the house more in order as I prepare to let it go. I’m mentally making lists of what will go where and…

  • my sis turns 40

    Today was an excellent day. Mid 50’s blue skies. Near perfect. Of course, a cold front will roll through again, but just a taste of it is good. I tried to get my hair/beard cut again. No go. My barber wasn’t in. Starting to sound like a broken record. I didn’t let it hinder me…

  • Some more road ponderings.

    I went to the bar the other night, I wanted a beer and some noise, some distraction from thinking too much or spending time online. Some human interaction. Strolling in, I saw the bar held just a handful of people. Undaunted, I hung up my coat and grabbed a handful of peanuts. Toward the back,…

  • on the road again…

    This time, just a day trip… to Columbus. A quick touch-base with the client to carve out future projects and re-cap the previous one. Cake. I woke to the sound of tires screeching over ice trying to get up an incline, I assumed. I looked out the window to see a silvery sheen over the…

  • The barber wasn’t there.

    Today I gathered my gumption to get the beard whacked, and Tiny Tina wasn’t there. Perhaps this is a sign that I should brave it out and see how long I can stand it. I’m a bit concerned about Tina though… she never takes the day off. I know that her daughter is with child……

  • i need to trim my beard

    After seeing my photo from mardi gras in st louis, ive decided that the beard is out of control, and would in fact, hinder me from finding a date. As much as I would like to grow it out more to see what length would do to my follicles, it’s just not in the cards…
