Why blog when you can just post links to other people’s blogs?

It seems Indiana Jones has had his bid for tenure denied. It’s kind of long, but that’s part of why it’s so damn funny.

NaNoWriMo starts really, really, really, really soon. Have you signed up?

Oh, shit… have I?

I booked today of work. Usually by now, after a chiropractor appointment and 2 hour sitting in my office chair, my back is all owie. Today is good. I do have to make up for the day on a Saturday in a couple of weeks, though. Not this week. This week I’m visiting parents.

Boring, boring entry.

It’s deja vu all over again.

Looks like I’d better get those credit cards paid off, but quick.

I had my first chiropractic “adjustment” today. I still hurt, but at least I can move a little better. I go again on Wednesday.

I’ve got to start sending in my insurance forms. This health care stuff is getting expensive.

About a half hour ago, I got a call from a phone number I didn’t recognize. Let it go to voice mail. Heard, “Um, hey, Vinnie. It’s Alexandra. I just got onto the 400 and, um, I’m coming to your house. Hope you’re there.” She’s called 3 times since, but hasn’t left another voicemail.

I’m hoping for the where-the-fuck-were-you message in an hour or so. Those are always funny when left at the wrong number.

Stuck in my apartment, flat on my back on a Saturday night. Can I get a sarastic, “Woo-hoo!”

I’m gonna be so glad when this week is finally over. I’m actually looking forward to Monday. I was so bored today that I was even browsing the chatrooms on Yahoo. Seriously, I don’t understand the appeal. The only “attention” I got was from automated programs sending me private-message links to porn sites. Do any real people actually use those things? How do all those slack-jawed losers on Springer find people to cheat on their wives with in online chatrooms?

Oh, I did do something marginally productive today. I loaned my friend James my 2nd Eye Toy camera a while ago because I got a game that came with another one. (That’s the stupid thing about Eye Toy games. You can’t get them without a camera so if there’s more than one game you like, you end up with an army of tiny cameras.) Today I found the drivers for hooking it up to my laptop. Now I have a webcam. A second big, sarcastic, “Woo-hoo!” is in order, I think.

OW!

Owowowowowowowowow! Ow, ow, fucking OW!

That is all.

The good news is I’ve got an appointment with the chiropractor. The bad news is they closed at noon today, and I didn’t wake up until 11:54. The one day I had something to do early, and it was the one day I could actually get any sleep. Grr. So I’ll be walking around like the old-man character Tim Conway used to play on The Carol Burnett Show for the entire weekend. Suckage.
