I'm not dead.

Really! I promise!

I'm just working a ton, so yeah. :)

Woo! I have SHingles. And soon: Cabin Fever.

Any ideas on dealing with either?

I had an awesome day. I ate breakfast at Egg Harbor (so tasty) this morning just me and a book. One of my favorite fantasy novels. (The third in the Codex Alera series by Jim Butcher.) Such a nice start to the day!

Then, I went to the gym and ran 3 miles. I wasn't exactly speedy today, but I was glad that I did it. And I love the steam room on a rainy day, it makes my head feel better. (Bad sinuses.)

Then I went with some friends (including mr CWD) to a fancy steakhouse (Wildfire). I had a filet with blue cheese crust and a flight of martinis and we got to go down into the city for the This American Life live show. SO FREAKING AWESOME. Dan Savage, Joss Whedon, and Ira Glass on the same stage kinda rocks.

Now, I'm home and a bit sleepy...I'll probably read a bit then go to bed. :)

Colbert's response. :)

Brilliant job Republicans!

Coolest sheep you'll see today.

2009-03-29T19:18:05Z

This is seriously amazing.

Maybe there's hope.

It feels to me like the world right now is on fire, and we're either going to come out reforged, or go up in flames. Seems like this guy is on the same page....

I fucking love John Stewart

Check out last night's show. Actually, go back and watch the last several nights show. IT's worth it.

Not Too Late for Coulton Tix!

2009-02-26T22:40:19Z

He's here Saturday and there's a big group going. If you're interested, I know of a few friends who've had to cancel the show due to crummy life issues...and I'd be willing to hook you up!

Give a yell. :)

Burlesque

2009-01-26T20:07:55Z

So, I went to the Vari-A-Tease Caberet/Burlesque show over the weekend. It was VERY cool....so cool in fact, I think I want to start going to more shows. The next cool one I know about is the Valentines day one, so I'll have to see how that works out, but I definitely recommend it to peeps...from a knowledgeable friend of mine, the Chicago Burlesque scene is apparently top notch.

Early Day

2009-01-21T17:58:37Z

So I'm getting off from work early due to a slow census (so free at 1pm). Ideas for what to do now?

(And for the record, I'm not totally clear...I'm coming back in from 7-9 later tonite to do counseling, so no booze fests.

Drinking Liberally.

2009-01-20T22:52:41Z

I do still plan to be at Finn McCool's tonight at 8, for anyone who wants to come out and toast in the change of administration!!

The High tomorrow is supposed to be negative two.

THE HIGH.

Negative numbers for highs are supposed to be for Santa Claus's backyard and alien planets.

I'm a bit of a smart ass.

2009-01-14T06:09:06Z

That is all.

Bah Snow!

Drinks AHOY

2009-01-09T03:32:18Z

People are ivited to drinks on the 20th to celebrate the end of the Bush era. Clockwerkdragon and I are organizing. Cause really, another day of our current president, and I'd commit suicide. We're going to be hitting Fin MCcools out in the burbs, everyone is invited. (Or if you hear of something cooler, let us know).

New Dr Who Confirmed

Crap, I was really hoping the current Dr. would stay through a few more seasons...

Flying to Pennsylvania tonite

2008-12-30T13:25:08Z

Going to be hanging out with one of my best friends in the world for 5 days of pure lazy geekiness. No girls, no drama, no work...just laying around reading comics, playing video games, and watching movies with the occassional work out thrown in.

Should be fun. :)

See all you guys in the New Year. Just want you all to know I love you, and hope you have a nice start to the New Year. :)

Plague

2008-12-29T21:53:17Z

Been feeling tired/rundown/and just low grade sick for weeks. Finally sucking it up and seeing a doctor tomorrow before I fly to Penn for 5 days.

Here's hoping it isn't Mono. >>

I could be an awesome dad.

2008-12-28T23:34:53Z

Just for the record.

Merry Xmas Everyboday!

2008-12-25T06:00:46Z

Whatever your religion (or lack of one in my case), have a great day off work. For those of you lucky enough to see family and friends today, may those visits be everything you need them to be.

:)
