  • I love having a carport. I haven’t had “snow” on my car at all. My right contact is totally fucking with me. It’s driving me insane. #
  • Twitpic is slow. I sent a pic from my phone. Flickr shows up already. Twitpic… still waiting. #
  • http://twitpic.com/15uxx – Twitpic and Flickr Test #
  • Getting off work to go to the laundry mat. Perhaps try the pushups/crunches too. #
  • Finally home. Had to go to the dryers then to Home Depot for a fucking nail remover. I’m finally at home relaxing with some vodka. 30 Rock! #

Connected, yet so lazy

posted by Jack Burnt

I’m fairly connected now. I can post to my journal, to Flickr, to Twitter, to Twitpic, and pretty much anything else from my phone. But, do I have the zeal to actually use these wonderfully intrusive technologies? We’ll find out.

Amanda and I are on Weight Watchers. And it’s been going fairly well so far. We started Tuesday, so I guess most things aside from anal drilling will go well for a couple days. I have 31 points to use throughout the day (though, I only used 25 yesterday) and 35 for the entire week. Day to day the process isn’t difficult. It’s when I want to go to Taco Bell on the weekend where I feel the belt tighten. The 35 extra “Flex” points will certainly come in handy though. I’ve begun posting what I eat and the point values on my journal. However, I’ve made all those entries private. I’m not sure if I want everyone to know the disgusting things I eat. Not yet anyway.

Aside from having to move a dishwasher this week, this weekend should be fairly low-key. I plan to play quite a bit of WoW. I’m only 74 which is pathetic. I plan to get to at least 76 by Sunday evening.

I never did watch Get Smart last night. Amanda and I started watching 30 Rock Season 2. So I guess I’ll watch that Friday evening. She didn’t seem to be as love struck on the movie as I am. I am a big Get Smart (TV) fan and I’m anxious to see what they do in the movie.

  • Freaking cold this morning, like 25 degrees. I wish we had a heater for the bathroom. At least no frost on the car– carport ftw! #
  • Into the drolls of the afternoon. Trying to survive until 4:45. #
  • I had to wait for an hour before picking up the Mrs. But I read a big chunk of my book at Hasting’s. Good book so far. Time for Get Smart. #

  • Back at work, sadly. My boss is gone for the week so it should be fairly quiet though. Just gotta catch up on some e-mails. #
  • I’m trying to decide which video stream I’m going to watch. Browsing through to find the best quality. #
  • Obama’d! #
  • 20 cent tacos enhance the flavor. Between me and my wife, I can eat for a week! #
  • Just had the fire alarm go off a few minutes ago. It happens every couple months. Some asshole pulls it so we all have to vacate. Oh well. #

Obama’d

posted by Jack Burnt

Looks like Bush is finally gone. Yay! I can take my anti-W sticker off the back of my car. I watched the inauguration of Obama through the miracle of stuttering Internet and he had a good speech. The “poet” afterward was God-awful though. Why on Earth did they pick her? She couldn’t even read her own poetry. The old guy giving the benediction was better than her.

Taco Bell’s offering 20-cent tacos today. That deal is too good to pass up. I’m on Weight Watchers now, but I may have to use some of my points on those bad boys. I used 4 points so far, so I got 27 to use.

This weekend will be a very green weekend. I don’t plan to do too much but to work around the house and play WoW. New patch came out that helps us Druids a bit, so it should be a blast.

  • On the way home from NC. I have to work on that damn dryer when I get home. #
  • Back in Auburn after my adventure to North Carolina. It was a good time. Sadly, now I have to do such mundane things as work on the dryer. #
  • Dryer’s fucked. I checked all wires, heating element, thermo, safety thermo, on-switch… nothing. Guess I”ll use the drum for a fire pit. #
  • Listening to Sir-Mix-A-Lot’s Swass. Awesome album. Perhaps my favorite rap album, aside from Deltron 3030 and Gravediggaz’s 6 Feep Deep. #

  • Wearing a suit on the way to my nephew’s cristening. Then lunch at some local café. #
  • I’m at a café in Shelby, NC. We’re going to try some liver mush featured on Food Network. I’m a-scared! #
  • Well, I’m a Twitter Bullshitter. We didn’t get any liver mush. I’m not too sad. We’re having peach cider now. #

  • I still need to play Fallout 1 and 2 before 3. #
  • Well, it looks like I should just go straight to Fallout 3 then. #
  • I don’t like the little hard, flat veggies in Asian food. Dunno what they are, but bleh. #
  • Going to pick up a key from the mower guy, then look at a portable dishwasher, then pick up Amanda, then get Subway… then going home! Yay! #
  • Bout to watch Pineapple Express with the missus. Tomorrow we’re off to North Carolina. #

  • Waiting for a meeting. I’m not a professional at the pre-meeting chats. #
  • Finally eating lunch. Boring old ham and cheese. At least there’s spicy pepper on there. So there. #
  • Heading off to do laundry. Then I may indulge a bit tonight. #
