When I die

I told Sam that I have planned out how I die.

You see when I die, I going to use my death to set up a mystery that only Reggie can solve. I’m sure he will need Pat’s help as well.

I can see it I perfectly. As I die my last words will be “get reg.”.

Reggie will show up and be like “One yellow shoe… Curious.”

After some thought and speculation he will deduce that the yellow shoe is in reference to the pair of yellow shoes I owned in college and that he needs to find the other shoe.

The mystery will evolve from there until the whole scenario somehow leads to Reg being indirectly responsible for my death.

Sam has since informed me that she would ensure my death by punching me if I ever try this.

Dear Spotify

Dear Spotify,

Kick Ass.  You have all the Helicopter Helicopter albums.  Seriously, I have trouble searching the internet for those guys, much less listening to their albums.  You have the new Weston album and all of their back albums (new album isn’t that great, but its on there).

EUPHONE ALBUMS.  Bam.  They’re there.  The Suite Unraveling.  Old album is there (I have the new one so its not too big a deal).  Hum.  The Sheila Divine.  Pulp. Piebald.  Stars. Ween.  Wussy.  Sky Larkin.  Rancid.  Smashing Pumpkins. The Cure. White Stripes. Radiohead. PJ Harvey. Pixies. Men at Work (that’s right… I like Men at Work… the band that is). Blondie (the 80’s had some good songs).  JETS TO FUCKING BRAZIL.  Casino versus Japan.

All the bands I like to listen to and a gazillion more.  You just might be worth it.

A dream conversation?

I’m trying to remember if this conversation was a real one or a dream. I have a pretty clear memory of it happening, and it seems logical, but the topic itself makes me think it was a dream. I’ll have to wait til Sam comes home from work to ask her about it.

Anyways, the conversation was about whether or not God could remove devil horns (I had a specific name for the horns, they were Pan horns than devil horns – curly ram type horns). I took the argument that he couldn’t. Sam was arguing that he could (which is weird… Sam is an aethiest – another point that it was a dream). I don’t remember actually points we made, but at one point I started shaking my head saying “uh uhn” over and over again while smiling (totally something I’d do). She then shoved me backwards, we were on the bed near Ginger’s cage. I then started tickling her (Sam’s deadly weakness, extreme ticklishness) while taunting that her laughing means I won the argument.

See. Totally logical argument between Sam and I, at least action wise, if not at all topic wise.

A Good Weekend

How do you judge a good weekend?

By what you accomplish of course.

And while Sam and I may not have “done much”…. we accomplished a lot.

Starting with Friday and seeing our new apartment.  Its nice.  We won’t be moving til August now (hopefully) but it is a sweet apartment.  Looking forward to the move.  We then went out to eat, nothing fancy… just pizza, fish fry for Sam and some drinks.  We were doing a low level celebration of Sam’s four months of not smoking.

We ended the night with episodes of House (Sam’s new addiction).  Saturday we cleaned.  We packed up books and boxes and organized.  Brought out three bags of trash, just crap to get rid off.  We then took close to 30 books to Half Priced Books to get some money back on them (not a lot granted, but some).  Did laundry (or maybe that was Friday).  Ate at Buffalo Wild Wings and did a little trivia (we didn’t bother with the controller, just tried to answer them ourselves). And ended the night watching Enter the Dragon.

Today, Sunday, we cleaned the bedroom of Gingerness – aka guinea pig mess (wait…. that was Saturday).  But we let Ginger run around with a new layout in the bedroom.  We relaxed (I played video games and Sam nerded on the internet for a bit).  We drank coffee.  We went to Target and to Giant Eagle grocery shopping.  We swept the kitchen.  We made veggie tacos for dinner… well late lunch (using Morning Star Crumbles… quite tasty).  We watched Torchwood – Season 4 – Children of Earth.  Its only five episodes long, but was good.  Nice to watch back to back.  I chatted up with Reg and Pat.  I scanned in Daily Drawings from November, December, January and February.  I watched Kingdom of Heaven (Director’s Cut) while scanning.

If that’s not a good, full, productive weekend, I’m not sure what is.  There was lots of down time, but we did a lot, even if we didn’t go out places.

Tomorrow I fix my bike.  Maybe I’ll grill as well.  Maybe I’ll scan more drawings.  We’ll see.
