Oh I think I love this show.

Agent Dale Cooper: Who’s that lady with the log? Sheriff Harry S Truman: We call her the Log Lady.
Love Log Lady. At first I was worried that she was in the show just for weirdness sake, but I learned to trust David Lynch after the first season of Twin Peaks.
Tessa’s decision to start watching this show made me look at all of my old posts about season one,...

Jeremy: Oh, god. Why does the world have to be so wrong?
Mark: C'mon. You don't love her. You're just jealous because her husband's back.
Jeremy: There's only so much happiness in the world, Mark, and they're hoarding it all.
Mark: That's not how happiness works.
Mark (Internal Monologue): It completely is.
Don't worry, guys. I'm alive.
But I didn’t find any copies of Lobo the Duck. I’ll chalk it up to losing it in the move.

No one really has a hankering for the Amalgam Universe. What you may think is a hankering for the Amalgam Universe is really just a hankering for poorly written, cheap fan-wankery. Nothing wrong with it, just make sure you know what you’re doing.
That being said— WANT. Especially in light of incidents such as my bookshelf...
Update #458
Before I leave to make overpriced caffeine and sugar drinks for the super-entitled, let me drop some knowledge and some half-assed optimism on you:
The good thing about a mostly shit 2009 is that the bar is pretty low for 2010. The new decade is yours, so get to work. I expect to see all of you with me at the top. Unless that’s just another social construct that is inevitably a falsehood...

“In a normal environment, a carcass gets cold in 8 to 36 hours losing an average rate of 1.6 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. However, the ice world of Hoth is not an average environment. The Star Wars database lists that Hoth reaches nightly temperatures of -60 F. In a frigid, sub-zero environment, body heat can be lost almost 32 times faster. This...

Matt Fraction on Avatar →
Much like BIRTH OF A NATION, it will be– it already is– thought of and spoken of as crude, stupid, juvenile, racist, imperial, and embarrassing. The shots to take against it are easy, plentiful, and way too cheap to actually spend time taking. Everything you’ve heard, from “unobtanium” to the white-man’s-burden of it all, is all true. But when I moved my head and raised my hand to swat a burning...

Update #443
My sister’s birthday and the Sheriff Hunter show were both a great success.
For my sister’s birthday, my family went out to some Brazilian restaurant in Beverly Hills where they serve you all sorts of meats on swords. There was also a salad bar, but who has time for salad when your table is being swarmed by Brazilian men carrying swords that hold meat wrapped in other meat, garlic,...

I caught a bus here tonight after Geoff’s show. It made me happy.

When you told me you didn’t drive, my brain didn’t even put together the fact that not driving in L.A. means having to deal with L.A. public “transit.” However, I’m glad that there exist little pleasures like that along our fair city’s public transportation...

Update #437: A new feature to the "work" blog
I don’t drink to the point of hangover very often, but when I do, I find it’s a pretty interesting experience. I’m going to try to introduce a new feature that I’m going to call “Hangover Documentation.” This is inspired by my talks with Tessa, who has the best hangover stories.

In which a mutual understanding between my...
Aaron: So, I want to tell you something, and I don't want you to take it the wrong way.
Geoff: Um, okay. . .
Aaron: You're kind of a ditz.
Geoff: What? Okay. . .
Aaron: And I'm an impatient person.
Geoff: I don't think I understand.
Aaron: It's like, there are some things in this job that you're fucking amazing at, and there are other things where I have to tell you the same thing over and over again.
Geoff: Oh, right. Yeah, the locations of a lot of things in the store, things like that, that usually gets me.
Aaron: Yeah, that's why I say you're kind of a ditz, because usually people pick up on those kinds of things after a couple of weeks, but now that I know that that's one of your things, I'll try to be more patient about it.
Geoff: Well, thanks, I guess.
Aaron: I just didn't want you to think that I'm just some impatient douchebag. [Note to the reader: I did, and still do.]
Geoff: And I was worried you thought I was just really fucking stupid. [Note to the reader: I think he did, and still does.]
Aaron: No, it's not that. I just think sometimes you're kind of a ditz.
Geoff: Well, I'm glad we talked about this? This is my car. Have a good night, Aaron.
Aaron: Drive safe. Good job today.
Geoff: Thanks.
Aaron: . . . I'm sorry I called you a ditz. I just didn't know how else to say it.
Geoff: Goodnight, Aaron.
Do not be alarmed. Below you're going to find a...
There’s nothing you can do about it at this point. It’d probably be best to just accept it.
