Well they say a picture is worth a thousand words, so I offer this as the best summarization of my weekend:

As for the gaps in the narrative... dead thing, good friends, booze, Chaotic, sing-alongs, Wii and four little boys (this is the third one in the picture) that were astounded that Real Live Grownups were willing to chase them around the yard for an hour and a half.

Thank you Shy and Fabio (lol), for a fabulous BBQ (even though you don't read this!)

Alas, back to life, back to reality. Fuck.

Current Mood: blah

*insert scathingly brilliant and wittily written rant about emotionally/physically abusive relationships that I will never have the brainpower or really the care to write*

If you're actually reading this/on my flist, it's not about you. Nor, before you ask, is it at all about me, though what's triggering the above is certainly making me have some uncomfortable thoughts pertaining to my own tendencies towards codependency.

And that's all I'm gonna say about it, other than GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUGH *stabbity stab stab*

Current Mood: irritated

Since I have a moment or so to breathe, I thought it was time for a bullet list of happy things in my world.

181.fm - the Buzz. I know I'm late to the party, but I'm loving the party now that I've arrived. It's like someone found the grungy alternative soul of Z100 during the early/mid-nineties when I listened to it non stop from 6am-midnight with breaks for school and subway tunnels and spit it into an internet radio station. It was one of the main things that kept me sane last night as I valiantly battled Morpheus while trying to finish my project.
Thunderstorms. We've been averaging about one every 36 hours for like a month, it's crazy.
Olympics. GUH, EPIC WIN for Beijing for that opening ceremony alone. I'm sure the British are all like "CRAP what are we gonna do to upstage THAT in 2012???" Yeah good luck with that, guys. The Chinese pretty much PWNED this one. Really they could have stopped at the end of that opening 2008 Fo drum number and it still would have pwned everything ever.

Fail for Bob Costas and Matt Lauer though. There've been several ibarw posts about how eurocentrically skewed the coverage of the parade of nations was, and at some points it WAS pretty damn cringe inducing. If the host nation uses an ideographic writing system rather than an alphabetical one, it does not give you the right to call the ordering of the nations "nonsensical." And you really, really couldn't find anything more interesting and relevant to say about the Central African Republic other than it being in the center of Africa? *facepalm* They should offer a commentary-less SAP channel or something for these things. Also... I couldn't get through it as it was being broadcast because there were commercials every five minutes. And when you're watching a 4+ hour long program that gets intolerable wicked fast. Went far better a couple of days later when sydneycat and I watched it again on DVR.

On the positive side, I totally have Go USA!! crushes on Mike Phelps, Shawn Johnson and Nastia Lukin.
Lynx, Xaio Hu and Cougar, thank you for bringing the squees, lolz and music this week. I'm glad to have met you guys. Also thank you for making last night less ignominious.
The Perseids peak tonight, and it should be a fabulous show, provided the skies clear. I'll probably be up working anyway.... D:
LobsterLM. Heh heh. And that is NOT #8.
VACATION IN 4 DAYS!!!! *FLAIL*

Current Mood: pleased

Gods, I feel like I'm writing a final paper for a class with the amount of carrying on I've been doing and procrastination. (Got a work project due tomorrow, lol.)

But I did want to take a few minutes to ramble a bit about Second Life. Yes. Second Life. Go on, make fun of me. I'll wait.

Done? Ok.

( whoa, this got long, yikes )

Anycrap. SL=damn fascinating in its own weird little way.

Back to work with me.

Current Mood: contemplative
Current Music: Meat Loaf - Two Out of Three Ain't Bad
