January 2001 Archive Wednesday, January 31, 2001I've become an NPR junkie. Today, I remembered that I had forgotten to get tickets for a performance this Sunday. But I didn't have the ticket booth number written down. I turn on NPR and within 10 (ten) minutes there was a commercial for the show with phone number. How (frighteningly) perfect.posted on 1/31/2001 11:23:08 PM
Monday, January 29, 2001HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! (yesterday.)Posted on 1/29/2001 01:05:54 PM
Friday, January 26, 2001I feel like Charlie Brown this week, with a rain cloud right over my head. It's one of those "just can't win" weeks. Considering how infrequently I have them, I think I'll be just fine.Posted on 1/26/2001 01:36:06 PM
Sunday, January 21, 2001One of the great unexpected outcomes of cold season/sneezon is the snotball. What is a snotball? Well, it's what you find in your coat pocket the day after you've been out, about, and nose-blowing. The snot dries and hardens into a papier mache of Kleenex and phlegm. I put on my coat today, plunged my hand in my pocket and came up with 4 of 'em.Posted on 1/21/2001 08:46:08 PM
Saturday, January 20, 2001Janet Reno's farewell on SNL with Will Ferrell as her doppelganger was sublime.Posted on 1/20/2001 11:05:26 PM Kozmo.com
must sell a shitload of condoms.
Friday, January 19, 2001Last Tuesday, I ate the Ethiopian version of steak tartar - Kitfo. That night, I dreamt the most wicked, violent things. Last night, I ate a rare hamburger. Again, wicked, violent dreams. Kinda interesting that digesting raw beef can take all the civility out of one's subconscious. Or at least mine. The most fascinating dreams though.Posted on 1/19/2001 09:04:12 PM
Friday, January 12, 2001Those geniuses at Just Born have done it again! I was waiting in line at Osco when I spied the huge half-full bin of drastically-reduced Christmas candy. I spotted a package of "Marshmallow Peeps Cutouts" I had seen then a month earlier, staring at me with their little wax eyes. They claimed to be "Holiday Cookie Flavored" which really scared me. But today they were merely 25 cents - how can you go wrong.Ohmyfriggingawd,
these are tasty. They really do taste like holiday cookies and
smell as good as they taste! Unless you have month-old candy lurking
in your local drugstore, you'll have to wait until next holiday
season - but they are well worth the wait!
Thursday, January 11, 2001Today is the last day of binary code - 011101 - until November! Rejoice today and make your paper chain counting down the days to 110101.Posted on 1/11/2001 11:05:55 AM
Monday, January 08, 2001FYI - a 20 oz Coca-Cola has about 76 mg caffeine. Apparently, the adult average is 200 mg a day! I was very worried about my 1 20 oz bottle a day. But I appear to be a relative lightweight. And something I learned on the Today show this morning: Caffeine stays in the system for 4-7 hours and if you are pregnant, on birth control or on estrogen, caffeine can stay in your system for up to TWICE as long.Damn
hormones, again.
Tuesday, January 02, 200126 days until Survivor: The Australian Outback. Never mind that January 28th is also my 27th birthday. It's SURVIVOR, man. My Pavlovian response to that cheezy-ass theme music in the commercials is sad, but undeniable.After
3 weeks of sickness and holidays, I'm ready to get back to work.
I had loads of good experiences with my friends, but I had too
much sleep, phlegm and non-work.
Monday, January 01, 2001HAPPY NEW YEAR!I hope you rang in 2001 in your favorite way. NYE is one of my favorite holidays, but I celebrate it in a fairly antithetical way than most. I hole up and look at the past year and make my goals for the next. Well, yesterday I had a good 12/31, but didn't get any goals made. Instead, I kicked Supreme Ass on my website, working on little bits and pieces that have needed work for quite some time. So, I rang in the New Year productively, but not as introspectively as I'd like. There's always the next couple days for that! posted on 1/1/2001 04:03:00 PM
