write what you know

i have joined the masses and now have dvr thanks to time warner (and the badass early cable guy). my television viewing is no longer tied to when nerver gets home -- yay me! i will never have to miss another episode of heroes or always sunny or project runway or anything else. ever. it's a whole new world -- now i just have to buy into that whole hd thing...


and this dvr entered my life at the perfect time, because nanowrimo starts in less than 13 hours and who knows when i'll have time to watch anything.... who's joining me?!?!


and for the happiest news of all, stars are playing at house of blues tonight, and it's not too late to get your tickets, so i expect some of you guys to show up. halloween schmalloween -- it comes around every year but stars don't, so you have no excuse (except for justin and shauna cause it's their anniversary and all...). jennifer and i will be there front and center (no, i'm not speaking in the third person) so get your asses out there.

and now for nerver's weirdass find of the week (go ahead and get about a minute and a half in):

Um, Wow.

80s Choreographed Gang Fight - Watch more free videos
A little After School Special nostalgia. You know, when choreographed street attacks where running rampant. From Ace Hits the Big Time.

Thanks Jake.

better nate than lever

yes, guys and gals, everyone's favorite time of year is here (and i'm not talking about halloween). thursday is the beginning of nanowrimo and you better get your butts in gear. in a last minute moment of insanity i volunteered to be the dallas aread municipal liaison, so i expect all of you locals to sign up (again?) this year so we can pretend to be productive, if only for a month.

the area kick off party is tomorrow at the two rows on greenville in old town from 2-5 p.m., which falls smackdab in the middle of fantasy party recovery and the fcd game and/or the show at doublewide, featuring fleetwood hack, blood on the moors, blow aces, and nightmare on e street.

yes, it's a busy weekend, but really it'll just be good practice for the frenzy we're about to experience...

so when i become a professional hit man

this is what i'm going to use.

i'm just saying.

i still do love you guys, i swear

a few things:

i know i haven't been around much lately. we've started a really big project at work and my promotion has now put me in charge of about a dozen contractors, so i've been pretty swamped. once it settles down i'll be able to find entertainment for you once again. pinky swear.

thanks to everyone who had well wishes for my mom over the weekend. though she doesn't seem to know how the wreck happened or how she even survived (oh yeah, she was in an accident on central saturday afternoon), she's doing well and is refusing her pain medication per usual (though she's not sharing it with me which seems to be a big waste). i suspect some deals with buddha have been made.

i need some of you fools to join my zombie army and play scrabulous with me. interested? then facebook me (or whatever the hip lingo for that friending action would be). yup. you know you want to.

cheesetots at the barley are yummy. cheesetots with bacon are superyummy. check it.

deadliest catch season 2 is on dvd now. i will now be able to see my boyfriend corey whenever my heart desires.

SHQ, RIP

I hate that some stupid, mindless act of vandalism ended up causing an awesome venue (with great plans on the horizon) to have to shut its doors. I loved every experience I had there. I love and respect the people that run the place and right now I feel for them that their vision has been lost in a senseless act and a subsequent rumor mill. Make Secret Headquarters your MySpace friends so you can be updated should a fundraiser be organized or if the PayPal button is still active.

And if you have any info regarding the vandalism of Secret Headquarters in Denton, please contact them via MySpace or Denton Rock City.

Happy...Uh...Happy Day!

thanks tracy.

and another with historians and other experts...

thanks howard.
