25 January 2006

Sup everyone! I'm totally at work doin' stuff! What are you guys up to??
I am scrutinizing the internet and drinking red wine. And watching the TV out of the corner of my eye.

Juggling chainsaws, building a boat, pleasuring a woman and curing cancer. All at the same time!

I'm totally writing a really, really boring article and getting ready to pick up my kid from preschool. (I love the picking up. She toddles out all happy and proud, clutching some random, fabulous piece of artwork. The pickup is the funnest.)

I'm digging some jonmc tracks from last night and throwing out papers from 2004 that are helping to hold my filing cabinet down.

I worked from home today, had a short break when I ran some errands. I saw a fox down by my garage, tried to tell him I wouldn't harm him, but he panicked and jumped the fence into the forest. He's got an injured leg, he was only using three, I think a car might have clipped his back leg. Foxes are often roadkill round here.

Came home, made some lunch (baked mushrooms stuffed with goat's cheese and black pepper), watched a bit of TV (I love working from home) and have just washed my hair. "Judge Judy" is on now, so I'm heading off to watch her, followed by Man Utd v Blackburn live on Sky tonight.

Graham Parker- I met him! I worked for a music company that did a disc and tour with him. So ya.

Well, they're moving me out of my cube into a windowless room, and I've been sitting with a couple of executive assistants picking out art for the walls.

My boss wants a nautical theme, and corporate policy only allows posters bought from a certain section of a certain vendor's site, so the pickings are a bit narrow.

Keeping in mind that sex/violence are taboo here, and that banks like images of strength and forward motion, we've chosen four that ought to improve my new hole:

Leutze
Hokusai
Gericault
Lichtenstein

I'll probably have to pick other ones.

And Graham Parker has been an inspiration to me since I can remember.

I'm sitting at home drinking gallons of OJ and playing Madden. My brain is fuzzy. Perhaps soon I will have a popsicle.

Graham Parker at the TLA was one of the best shows I've ever been to. It was a small enough venue that he could talk to the audienc easily. It was like a long conversation punctuated by music. Awesome.

No, but I should be.

Don't bother with the Local Girls...

(I used to have a track of his, (dubbed from the old Pete Fornatale show on WNEW-FM) called 'Over The Border To America.' It's another song I've never managed to p2p. It contained the classic verse 'we're gonna buy a million pairs of nylons/come and live on Staten Island.')

Also, today the vending machine has not 'breakfast claws' but actual BEAR CLAWS! Yay, progress!

I'm sitting at home drinking gallons of OJ and playing Madden.

I initially read this as 'playing Maiden' as in Iron. But both choices are good. Perhaps John Madden should join Iron Maiden. I'd listen.

the Bell Rays stuff? why that band isn't huge is beyond me.
posted by jonmc 25 January | 13:25
Hmm, someone should work up a mash up and call it Iron Madden. There would have to be lots of "Boom" and "Pow!" sound effects though.

Yes, listening to the Bell Rays and also the Frames. And just now the Benny Hill theme song came on so I've gotta go run around my office at super speed and see if I can pretend to grope some pretty ladies. Be right back.

I just put together my kids' late Xmas/bday present from his other grandmother: 6 "real" samurai swords and a rack to hang them on. I feel macho since I built & hung the rack, yeah me, I got to use my electric drill. Now I'm trying to work up the energy to go hiking. Any minute . . any minute . .

Lordy he loved the clarinet!

Hugh, I really like the Hokusai.

Well, to be honest, curing cancer. Seriously.

Except that I'm reading mecha and waiting to go grab lunch with a buddy.

Maybe I'll get back to it after lunch.

Hiding from encroaching headache, trying to decide whether to go rent some DVDs. Hopefully there's a Netflix in my mailbox, but since my ATM card was stolen and cancelled last week, my Netflix account is all screwy.

Tonight's my family's Slava and I'm resting up before being in charge of the huge dinner party involved.
