Sarkus:

I have a fly living in my room. I guess I must be getting sentimental as I get older, because I have no desire to kill it. I’m actually surprised its still alive, as its been here about a week. I thought about trying to capture it and put it outside, but now that it’s colder that’s essentially a death sentence for the little guy.

I mean, as soon as I turn on my computer he flys over and lands on the corner of the screen. Occasionally he buzzes by my ears, but that’s about it.

Or maybe I need a new cat.

Then you realize it laid a 1000 eggs in your peanut butter.

It almost seems like nobody likes to actually negotiate contracts any more, and they get offended if you try.

No peanut butter. But I think it might have been laying eggs on my monitor, so I escorted it out into the rest of the house.

I work a total of 13.5 hours in the six day period starting today. I finished Fallout NV on Sunday and now I’m bored and can’t find anything I want to do with all this free time. Why don’t these things ever line up so that you get a game or something else time consuming you’ve been looking forward to right as you have the time to enjoy it? It’s always no time to enjoy what you just got or nothing to enjoy when you have the time.

I hate setting up firewall rules.

Today’s moment of Zen: a “patriotic” CD meant “for the troops” by an aspiring country singer, which contains covers of both Lee Greenwood’s “Proud To Be An American”, the Battle Hymn of the Republic, and Neil Young’s “Rockin’ In The Free World”.

One of these things is not like the other…

Omniscia · 2010-11-04T11:04:35.000Z

Yeah. One of them actually rocks.

Time to trawl through Steam sales, Xbox Live Arcade & Indie games =)

Or try a Free to play MMO?

Or see if he can hit 20,000 posts in the next 6 days and win the free Smart Car Tom gives away.

I’m pretty sure Kerzain has me beat to 20,000 posts. ;-)

To people that aren’t creepy, beardyman stalkers.

Grandma starts every sentence to her with “I know a little girl . . .”
Dad’s response to her when she complains or cries is to mimic her, which just results in her getting upset.
And the three year old keeps walking around and complaining that she is hungry (at 10PM at night) even though they’ve offered her nine or ten different things.
She finally settled on cold soup.

I wish I could move.

I just realized that a random dude who friended me on Facebook like six months ago is our state house majority leader. I am Facebook friends with way too many politicians.

November 17th is less than 2 weeks away.

It’s good to see that everyone is excited about mmalloy’s birthday.

What kind of a loser has a birthday on a Wednesday?

Eilonwy · 2010-11-05T06:45:28.000Z

Fool, you get to celebrate double if your birthday falls in the middle of the week. You get taken out to dinner that night, then have a party on the weekend. BIRTHDAY WEEK!

Bahimiron · 2010-11-05T07:09:00.000Z

She also gets to control the remote and go to bed whenever she wants.

Eilonwy · 2010-11-05T07:13:39.000Z

And wear the birthday crown!

Bahimiron · 2010-11-05T07:18:28.000Z

Oddly enough the birthday crown is also sometimes the Halloween crown, the engagement crown, the wedding crown, the someone else’s birthday crown, the rainy day crown and the Tuesday crown.

Matt_Bowyer · 2010-11-05T07:21:41.000Z

Is there an actual, physical crown?
