jerry orbach, aka lenny briscoe, aka the candlestick from disney’s beauty and the beast died last night. how timely- in the middle of a loneliness induced law & order binge. i’m on my 4th episode tonight!!! i never knew he was such an acomplished broadway star. for being on such poncey stages, he knew how to play blue collar cops. nbc is running an older episode tonight (not a rerun from this season) in his honour i guess. this means i’m not watching svu right now.
i wore my smuggler boots to the store. it was quite fun. i got my groceries extra-wet because i couldn’t skip a puddle without walking through it, splashing all the way. amen for my smuggler boots. the cashier at androgyno’s (no pun intended) was lamenting about how people vehemently assert that she’s a man. we talked about idiocy and ritter sport. i empathized with her, as most people thought i was a boy between the ages 6 and 10. it was so bad that i got busted (a citation) for using the girl’s restroom.
goddamn rain! keeping joe delayed. i think i need a nap. i hope larry’s flight got off ok.

i’m watching my live aid dvd that i got for christmas. my parents taped it when i was a kid, and i think that’s what got me wanting to be a rock and roller.* sad, innit? now that i’m watching whole sets, i’m compelled to go out and buy every album by queen. they’re soooo bad, but freddy mecury was the best front man ever. i think that’s fair to say. and for mindless big rock songs, they’re perhaps the best. i feel like a chump.
the beach boys in the 80s sucked. mike love, who is pretty much a talentless ass with a taste for garish shirts, has no place in the band. i forgot how rad carl wilson was, but at live aid? come on.
i need to watch the next three dvds before joe gets back or larry calls me. i think the only person who likes these as much as i do is my sister in law. she needs to come over and watch duran duran.
*somebody taped over this childhood relic with wrestling (ie. my brother), and it was subsequently taped over with a tlc show about evolution. this weekend my brother wanted to watch the video for “come dancing” by the kinks. too bad for him he taped over it. actually, too bad for me too. i used to play tennis guitar to that video all the time like the kid in the video. goddamn.

i’m watching my fifth (or seventh, depending on how you count) episode of law & order right now. it’s the first one with mccoy. man, he’s a lot better than stone. that’s for sure. my main question is this, can there be something as too much law & order? i’m beginning to wonder. i’ve seen most of the episodes, but they still make me watch. thank god i’m alone to wallow in this l&o haze. i doubt joe would approve of this much of a good thing.
i’ll refrain from a hollow christmas post. let’s just say i was miserable, but the time wasn’t so bad. my family is obnoxious and grand. the fools were more foolish than ever, and i came to see my family for what they are- various parts of myself. i know when my manic aunt rants about some idiotic article she’s read full of inaccuracies, that’s probably like me. when my uncle plays horrible music on the piano too loud, that’s just thee kendrak attack going respectable. oh well. it sucks that i’ve estranged myself for so long, my family isn’t all bad.
i wish law & order would be on all night long, though i suppose i should try to sleep.
holy cow! mccoy just took his pants off!!!!!!!

danh and i are eating doughnuts and playing katamari damacy. fuck schlong!
danh made me watch this story about a girl with no face. it is the nastiest thing i ever saw. he claims to have worse stuff, and i’m scared. this could top my mom’s showing me pictures of the 600lb lady who grew into her couch.
this is also pretty sick, but doesn’t have the visual to make me puke a doughnut.

today i spent 20 minutes getting myself disengaged from a box of styrofoam packing peanuts. they had some of the most intense static cling ever. it was as if they were hovering in this ionized vortex in which i was trapped. colour me bugged.
last night was debaucherous fun. i played video games until 2am. i ate “blt”s. i goofed off. i drank dr pepper. man, i liked it.
i’m cold now.

i should be sleeping. kalx tonight was rough and i missed out on some awesome gebis-action with joe, his sis, her boyfriend, and his brother. argh.
i turned on the tv when joe was in the bathroom. it was old skool snl, back when it was, you know, funny. of course one of my many crushes was on, so i had to turn on my computer to share this with y’all.

i’m watching a show about steve wozniak. i guess joe’s rubbed off on me, because i think it’s pretty rad. i must say though, this show makes jobs look like a wang, but we already knew that. it’s sorta sad to see how apple when from being the cutting edge of computer engineering to the cutting edge of trendy fashion. oh well. i blame steve jobs. wozniak is a brilliant engineer, and that’s hot- seriously hot. it must have been exciting to be involved in computers back then. to think how far we’ve come! i mean, the apple II was revolutionary for using a keyboard and monitor! we need to appreciate our technology more. i want to learn BASIC now.
i have free time because i’ve just finished my hebrew final. i need to turn it it. despite my love of phonology, i can’t be arsed to do the bonus question.
doughnut party tonight!!!! i need to get sprinkles.

i guess it’s good that bobby fischer is still news worthy. the whole thing strikes me as stupid, i mean… seriously, playing chess in yugoslavia is worth this?
my toes are freezing, and it’s not very pleasant. it always seem that my toes are cold. my toes, my nose, my fingers… i’m a big ball o’ ice! joe says i should wear two pairs of socks. i think that’s lame. i need my ernie slippers.
i just went through my hebrew final- the prof was right. it’s damn easy, or i’m just that good. thank god for that. the class so vague and nebulous that nobody knew what was going on. i still don’t know my grade in the class. oh well, it’ll be over by friday. just in time for doughnut party!!!!
yeah, yeah… i gotta get the doughnut stuff and candy. remember folks… byob. i aint fucking your livers anymore than you can afford.

today was something of a slow clean up day at work. i had to clean up pile and piles of mislabled/unlabled/damaged books, so i labled, glued, and sewed all day long. i got bored halfway through and dreamt of reading reynke de vos.
i couldn’t find it though.
i came home and now i’m reading it. watch me read. i’m dope(y).
man, isn’t the internet awesome?
i mean, sweet?

i don’t know what’s the matter with me, but i feel ill. i took sinus headache pills, and nothing. i took a migraine pill and now i feel a different kind of bad. my blood is rushing around and i really have to pee. my migraine pills always make me feel weird like this.
john stewart- i’m not feeling it anymore.
anyhow. today was a long long day of work. i worked a full 7 hours! woo! i did some of the must dull work ever- sticking labels on postcards. i don’t remember how long i did it for, nor do i remember doing it, but there i was after an inordinate ammount of time there was a huge stack of labled postcards. i think i was in the zone. i was bummed that sean got to lable john ashcroft’s. we should have addressed it to “or attourney general”. that would have been funny.
i also did other things that i don’t remember, but suffice to say i felt good about myself at the end of it all. except for the headache and feeling like ass.
i’m also back on the siedler wagon- playing online and talking shit with the krauts. life is grand.
oh, i need to remember hebrew.
doughnut party friday night bitchez!!!!!!!!!

man! gumby is awesome, but not as awesome as joe’s commentary and sound affects. he’s going insane about the robots who do gumby’s chores for him. they’re tagging they whole house!!! i can imagine joe and docto watching this in the cornfields of illinois eating gas station cheese and laughing like maniacs. art clokey is a genius.
this is not me writing about pisa. this is me wishing i was kicking it o.s.

has anybody heard of esteban? i swear he’s the heino of classical guitar!!! how’s that for nasty. he’s on the homeshopping channel hawking gee-tars.
last night i co-hosted kalx live with lauren and aaron. it was fun. by a stroke of good luck, we got a good band at the last minute- the disappointment- to play and they were really fun and nice. then i went home and got ink all over my hands twice when i tried to do the bigfoot crossword in bed. that’s two times!!! ugh.
now i’m trying to be a babysitter. how much should i charge for two kids?

i am done with berkeley, more or less. my last two classes were such let downs- such a sad end to such a sad era. i had so many hopes and dreams and now i just want to vegetate. i should go back and tell my highschool teachers that i ammounted to just another confused slacker in their early twenties. i do have a decent history thesis under my belt though, and the subsequent knowledge about right-extremism and protest politics in germany. i also know way too much about the history of german, but am too damn lazy to care about adjective endings. i think i’ve worked my way from a failure to just mediocre.
so this week was crazy. let’s recap! (fade into dream sequence…..)
