Random Thoughts for the Week

-I think my 4 year old nephew is a child prodigy when it comes to electronics. Last time he was over, he takes out a DVD, puts it in the player, grabs the remote, presses just the right buttons, and the DVD starts. My ex-wife couldn't work this thing. My engineer father couldn't work this thing. Hell, even I get confused from time to time. Not only am I impressed, I've contacted MIT to start planning his future. His parents won't mind. MIT isn't that expensive. Is it?

-Things that are sucktacular (in no particular order):
Mutant camel crickets, like the ones in my garage
Condoms...all brands, all styles

Unretractable statements of commitment

Ingrown hairs and razor bumps
Tapered jeans

-Things that rock my nuts (in no particular order):
Akira Kurosawa films
Albacore tuna wraps with wasabi mustard

Whole Foods grocery stores
Mutual attraction
Receiving unexpected email
Kenneth Cole

-I wouldn't want to be a stripper in Seattle. Or worse, a strip-joint patron in Seattle.

-Anyone want to bet that the Astros beat the Braves in the 1st round of the NL playoffs.

-I had no idea my future wife was already married. With this news and with the events of this weekend, I am convinced that my best recourse is moving to Tibet and becoming a Buddhist monk.

-A decision has to be made this week on whether I get my puppy. I want one. Badly. I'm just in love with this little girl, but I know that money might be better spent on the house. Help me, blog readers...you're my only hope.


EDIT: One more thing that happens to be sucktactular:
Those fucking cheap ass coffee cups from Starbucks

So you have camel crickets there too? I hadn't seen them until we moved back to NJ - 1st time I've seen them - they took over our last basement - scary as fuck when they are in the kitchen sink in the morning - let's just say some weren't very happy with them.

As far as the puppy goes - I hear you on wanting one badly - but please think about it - otherwise I will be forced to drive down there and shake you until your head snaps - love our crazy ass people biting dog fighting dogs - that being said - don't do it - they take almost all of your time - I'm serious - I know I know - you've had dogs before - I am just saying you'll be much happier presently without one. If you need the fix that bad go on to a rescue this weekend and play with the dogs for a few hours - you'll enjoy it, they'll enjoy it - and you'll still have free time :) PLeeeeeeeease..

Yes. Camel crickets. One got in my car somehow, decided to wait until I was driving down a dark road, then jump on me, simultaneously giving me a small coronary, nearly shit myself, and almost run into the ditch. They are now my nemeses.

Ms. Bees...I'm beginning to think you're my left coast soulmate. And with that, procreation is an option. Producing a race (well, at least a litter) of genetically (ahem and fashionably) superior offspring has been my life's dream.

Hmm...4 pair of Kenneth Cole's? You should know, I have a massive shoe fetish. shudder

You 2 need to stay away from each other, and not hang pictures. ;) Don't get the dog - and please don't let anyone make out w/ it - even if it seems to enjoy it- it's still abuse.. ;) You'll thank me later after you created your stupposedly genetically superior race and figure out you have no free time.. just look at the camel crickets - superior my ass....

Hmm...no animal abuse here, though I'm available for a serpentine makeout session.

Now I'm here...you're there. The evil corporate empire I may or may not work for has a lab in Alameda. I must manipulate "the system" yet again to further my evil plots....
