“Once upon a time, spending 10 hours on a recap of this show was an accurate...”

Picking up where I left off.
So the last time Electric Six and The Constellations were out on tour it was Fall and I had to miss the Cleveland show because I felt really sick driving back from the Cincinnati show. I was just lucky/happy I lived in the middle of the two cities so I was able to quit in the middle of the road trip and get in my bed.
I was not only bummed because I wasn’t feeling well, but my eyes were...
5 months later
and I finally have the dermatologist referral done correctly.
I only have to wait another week and a half to get in to see the Dermatologist now.
“They are serious in a weird way.”
– My friend in Denver’s description of Electric Six
March 2011
I'm sick of weed talk in rap: that ish is played...
joejohnson:
Or, maybe it’s because I don’t identify with that lifestyle…I think it’s just a “crutch” rappers use to make a flow, like the other cliche’s you hear in almost every rap song.
I identify with this. I listen to “Stoner Rock/Metal” but I don’t smoke. I always thought theres too much sex and drugs in Rock and Roll.
My phone's permanently jacked up
from when I lost it in the middle of the fun at the last NYC E6 show.
“Quit txting and dance.”
– Dawn, to her friend at the E6 show in Denver
I just filed my taxes
while watching the Top Chef finale, txting my friend, IMming another, on the couch, in my pajamas.
I love 2011.
News from E6 show in Denver
The jostling has begun.
My best friend from high school
lives in Denver and just txted me from the Electric Six show there tonight.
The smoking man is a frustrated novelist!
librarianpirate:
he rigged the Olympics, the Super Bowls. He assassins JFK and Martin Luther King jr.
And he couldn’t get a novel published.
Free Candy
I think that whoever the person is who owns that van with “Free Candy” painted on the side of it that we’ve all been looking at on the internet for years and years and years now is very seriously obligated to make sure that they always have free candy on hand when they’re driving around in it.
It is snowing.
and accumulating.
In Ohio at the end of March.
Strange.
How the hell is Indianapolis
2-3 hours from everywhere?
Go on, twist my arm.
Dawn: We should go see Electric 6 and The Constellations in Louisville instead of Indy cause I can't get the next day off work.
John: We should do both.
Dawn: How far is Indy from Louisville?
John: 2 hrs
Dawn: Oh! We should do both!
"It's my Lucy!"
I said aloud when I saw that photo of her.
Oreo looked around for her.
It's about the remote.
I’ve resisted hooking any new stuff up to my TV because I have a computer with a big monitor right next to it and I can watch whatever I want on the internet from the couch already.
But even with a wireless mouse it’s still not the same as watching on the TV with a remote in your hand.
DVD player is next!
It will be my first DVD player that doesn’t suck.
Assuming it doesn’t suck.
4 hours in the future
Has anyone figured out how to make tumblr stop posting pics from my Android phone 4 hours in the future yet? Really messes up a real-time live blogging of a pogoplug install FYI.
My new Pogoplug installed in minutes.
Took longer to plug it in and decide how to fit it on the shelf than anything. I’m up and running with my hard drive in the cloud once again.
Hoping I can get the new DVD player I ordered at the same time (because I paid a lot less for the pogoplug than I expected to) running as easily.
Mad Cow Disease
I lived in England in the 80s and ate British Beef, making me (still) ineligible to donate blood. It comes up pretty much during every blood drive ever. Usually whoever’s trying to get me to donate thinks it’s some fanciful story I’ve made up to get out of donating.
I’m more concerned that what they’re trying to tell me by continuing to enforce this rule even now in...
Dear Little Orange Kitty,
I accept that you will scratch my arms and legs. I am a sophisticated enough kitty owner that most of the time I can keep you from scratching my face and I accept that as my own responsibility. But please stop sneaking up on me and scratching my various lady parts. Thank you.
My doctor sucks.
Well, she’s actually not that bad, but the referral coordinator is a confused nightmarish woman who lives to torment me by either just not doing referrals for me at all, or telling me she’s done them when she hasn’t.
I’ve gotten wise to this a long time ago and I always confirm with the insurance company that everything is good to go after the first time she royally...
All this "Anti-Bullying" sentiment
is well and nice when Britney Spears or whoever anyone actually cares about and pays attention and tries to support the cause, but the problem isn’t some mean kid going around trying to steal other kids lunch money.
The problem stems from people still not being taught that its rude and hurtful to make fun of people.
Every clip show on VH1 with comedians critiquing things they know...
