Fascinating. 

*sigh*

So today, being the last day was filled with all those little chores and errands to get me ready for the next 5 days of work. You know. Fascinating things, like haircut. groceries, dry cleaners, and the usual stuff around the house. Nothing really interesting. Maybe I’ll do a bit of manscaping later… Heh. Anyhoo. There’s my day so far.

I tried. I actually remembered, thanks to Brian. I was off work, so I went around and did interesting things. I took photos. Somehow I totally missed the part where you have to also note the time. By the time I figured out how to do find the time of a photo (it’s a really tiny bit of info I only get within iPhoto, which I didn’t use at all after getting the photos to the desktop). Anyhow, by the time I figured all that out it was (is) 12:30 at night. I have an early dentist appointment. Clearly this meme and I were not meant to be. And to be frank, looking at how much time was spent today futzing with the camera there is NO way I could do it on a workday. I am at work far too long to get photos, and I unfortunately would find myself fired if I photographed my place of work and put it online.

So yeah. I am bummed and oddly relieved. At least I tried it once, right? Right? 

another entry from the iPhone...

Huh. The site has been up only since January. The first podcast was in… erm… February.

Okay, so I was gay with a podcast (a gay themed podcast even!) and in San Diego in (believe it or not..) July of ‘06. Check! It’s in the archives.. I’ll wait. I even show up in Google on page 7 for “San Diego gay podcast”. That’s like 3 pages higher than this one.

Just sayin’.

And call your mother! 

So last night was Kathy Griffin. It was awesome. I really like her, which as a gay I think I am ‘supposed to’ so it’s fine. She talked about all my favorite celebs, YouTube, and the internet. All my favorite things really. I really wasn’t expecting her to be on stage as long as she was. Actually I wasn’t expecting her show to be like it was at all. I mean, when you think comedy you think like Comedy Central style, right? She was more like just a pal talking about her week. Her week was just a hell of a lot funnier than mine. What a great time! I can’t wait until she comes to town again. I am so there!!

Anyway, after the show we kinda parted ways and started heading off to our cars. 2 of our group were in the same direction and we started walking together. We didn’t stay walking together. Sometimes I think we all don’t get along. Is that weird? Anyways, last night was like that even though it was really a blast. Like I said we didn’t stay walking together. They just kept trotting along even after Richard said he needed to walk slower (he has been working like a million hours lately and is just sore). Catty remarks were made. I slowed down with Richard. Obviously we fell behind. Then we were a lot behind. Finally I was like ‘screw this’ and suggested we stay on Shelter Island while the mad rush to leave was going on. There were a lot of people out and the vibe was great. So we veered over towards a very tropical looking hotel thinking we’d have a quick drink while traffic died down. I think there is only the one way off the Island… So the hotel turned out to be a Best Western. LOL. At the bar there was an Australian gal drowning her sorrows over her fathers wedding the following day. She was there with friends, and apparently the whole family was staying there. It’s a long dramatic story… Suffice it to say, she was a bit drunk. She also seemed to like Richard and I and kept trying to buy our drinks. Then she started buying tequila shots. For the whole bar. (I had no idea at the time, but Richard may have had one or two...) It turned out to be a pretty crazy night with all that we witnessed from our new friends and their family that eventually made it to the bar. Heh. I hope they all feel okay at the wedding. Alcohol is a very dangerous drug.

Anyhoo. I had to be up for work so we left the Aussies to their night of frolic at the Best Western and headed home.

I know. I am kinda excited about it… What will I wear? I want to buy something new but that seems so frivolous, what with gas prices what they are. We’ll see. Anyone else got big plans this weekend? It is Mother’s Day yanno…

I was just reading some Apple related news and there was a post about Comic Life’s new application Comic Life Magiq. It looks pretty fun, so I looked to see if I still had the Comic Life copy that came with my Mac. I did! Then I saw that I could qualify for the low price of 20 bucks (for a limited time!) as a ‘crossgrade’. (I think that’s a crossgrade because it is a separate application.) So I checked. Sure enough, I qualified! So here I am 20 bucks later downloading a new and fancy version of an application I have only used once before… What a chain of events!

Maybe I should do a weekly Comic Life Magiq post to justify this. I’ll need to learn how to use it. I guess I should use the other version I have had once and a while too. Sigh. 

And I get to deal with potentially any combination of the above possibilities tomorrow before work. Joy.

UPDATE: No one died, the new filter is bought and up and running. I’ll test the water in a bit to see if there is any bad stuff happening.... so far so good!
