Remember me? It's been almost a year since I posted last, but the site seems to still be here, so I figured why not?
If you live on the East Coast of the US, or anywhere in Europe, check the sky on the night of November 18. In the US, check the Eastern Sky (only if you're in the Eastern time zone) between 11:15pm and 12:15 pm. Ideally, watch at 11:45pm.
With luck, you'll get about 2 meteors a minute, and maybe 5-10 right around 11:45.

KJToo tagged me on this one, and (in spite of my totally sporadic livejournal reading lately) I happened to catch it before it scrolled off my main page. So here goes...

I've been too busy to post (What with working 50+hours, most of them before 9am, all week, AND a budding podcast to plan, AND NaNoWriMo to write for) but I'm on track.
Tonight, I wrote about 1500 words, the vast majority of them in two 20-mintue "sprints" in which I wrote an average of 750 words in each sprint. I was very productive.
Right now, I'm at 5087 words (87 more than the goal for today) and I'm ranked number 4065 out of the entire NaNo community. Go me!

I'm so close to the middle, I doubt my placement is accurate.
the Cutting Edge (57% dark, 50% spontaneous, 36% vulgar) | your humor style: CLEAN | SPONTANEOUS | DARK
Your humor's mostly innocent and off-the-cuff, but somehow there's something slightly menacing about you. Part of your humor is making people a little uncomfortable, even if the things you say aren't themselves confrontational. You probably have a very dry delivery, or are seriously over-the-top.
Your type is the most likely to appreciate a good insult and/or broken bone and/or very very fat person dancing.

I was treated to an advanced showing of Serenity, the continuation of the story that was begun in the ill-fated Firefly television series. This review will NOT HAVE ANY SPOILERS. Because of the lack of spoilers, I will have to be quite general, and as such this review will likely be short.
( Oh, who am I kidding? I'm going to ramble on forever, even without spoilers. )

I get to see Serenity tomorrow. For free.

I always wanted my website to be dot.dot.dot.com, just say it, it rolllllls off the tongue. Well, of course, to have that webpage you need to own dot.com (or be friendly with the owner) so that's out for me. So, for fun, I checked the nearest alternative, dotdotdotdotdot.com, and was a bit surprised to find it was taken.
So I tried dotdot.com, dotdotdot.com, and dotdotdotdot.com. All taken.
In fact, until dotdotdotdotdotdotdot.com, all are taken. But that's just too many dots. |

Looking at my last 8 spam emails, just the titles mind you:
Go wakeup a scraps foolhardy by dance be reasonably do play in breast ox A spend is cozy presumable With turnoff at op by borrow an hereditament unkindly his have in code Which explain a selenium
(I linked to the dictionary.com page on hereditament above just to save you the trouble)
Now, I find it very funny that none of these eight "phrases" make any sense. They're almost sentences, but not quite, and were obviously created by a computer program. The person who coded that program took no pains to make sure the phrases made sense, but he /did/ make sure to take change 'a' to 'an' where appropriate.
I wonder if his boss gave him a gold star.Current Music: Spin Doctors - Two Princes

I mostly want this in my journal to remember, both the good and the bad, of Rachael Sage night at the club.
First, the good: Rachael Sage was in the club! She sang, she bantered, she played, and all was well. The song I had heard 15 months previously I heard again, and was promised it would be on the next album, so I have something to look forward to. Also, I think baab enjoyed himself, as did our mutual friend Jeffrey, and several people who were there who said that they would likely leave early because they wouldn't like the show ended up staying until the very end.
Second, the bad: The entire club membership, outside me, Lisa, her father, and the DJ, suck total balls. The ones that didn't spend the entire night in the bar sat in the center table and TALKED OVER THE MUSIC. I mean, come on.
So, as an upside, we're going on a mini-strike. We're not showing up on Friday. I hope that 3 of the people who are supposed to cook aren't there, and they're expecting me to cover for them again. I'll not spare them a second thought as I sit home with my wife and watch National Treasure on Netflix.
