Hi. If we are at a party together I make it my mission to make you uncomfortable. What’s the mist serious make out you’ve ever had in a movie theatre?

Dear Josh:
If you ever read this some day you will probably be like “Dang what is all that language on that soda can up there in that picture!!! Well Josh it is Turkish language! This is a soda from Turkey but I’ll be really honest with you I got it at a Turkish restaurant here in These…

I’ve now convinced myself that without a prosthetic chin and nose my costume will be a failure. The local Ricky’s doesn’t have a Friday Night Lights line of costumes, though.
I have a new phone. This may result in more posting. Consider yourself warned. Maybe there will just be posts of this nature. I got Dillon Panthers cups this morning. Halloween 2012 prep is moving forward! Watch out!

This weekend was popular for out of town visitors to my profile…
Antelope, California
Dallas, Texas
Woodbridge, Virginia
Scottsdale, Arizona
Dogtown, Alabama
This makes me want to move to Pigeon Forge, TN.

I’m surprised that with all the ridiculous “we just serve mac & cheese/PB&Js” niche food options in a big city, no one has yet done a café where you can just buy an individual beater covered in cake batter. Maybe they could have TVs playing ’80s sitcoms in the background and a fridge covered with A+ multiplication tests.

my online dating account has been deactivated. i’m the one who flipped the switch on that. after over more than a month of having a profile i went on zero dates and traded emails with zero people i found interesting & attractive. time to get back to the business of real life.

I spent two hours this evening packing a bag and then convincing myself that going to Atlantic City would be a bad idea. Two thumbs up for sticking to my guns and not going to A.C. unless I have a hotel room reserved!

An interesting thought occurred to me today - could it be I haven’t been asked out because of the proximity to Valentine’s Day? It would make total sense. Who wants to be starting something and have to deal with such a supposedly high pressure holiday so early on? No one wants to be on a second or…

Totally searched okcupid profiles using the keyword “catan.”
I am returning. I swear. And rambling. And aiming for a sentence or two that contains more than three words. Or should I just try for sentences? I’m almost convinced half my writing style is following up a short sentence with a new non-sentence that starts with “And.”

I was at the main branch of the Cambridge Public Library the other day (love them, they’re doing good work) when I saw this propped up in the new books/speed reads section:
My brain did a quick Did you really just seen what you think you seen and I was suddenly sprinting across the aisle…
This makes me want to start watching Castle again!

Generic CVS brand cherry lip balm is called Chap-Block.
Unrelated. I am in the mood for a sandwich from Roll N Roaster.
On his blog a friend posted a photo of me lifting his son into the air to get a better view of a rock show. The first thing I noticed was that I have a few gray hairs in my mustache. It’s time to start plucking them, I think. It’s also time to figure out if I really prefer grey to gray and moustache to mustache.
Before getting out of bed this morning I checked my OKCupid profile, found someone with potential and sent her an email with the subject line “99% perfect.” Her profile had mentioned contacting her if she was 100% perfect.
I can now state I am 100% certain my one line message will not garner a response.
So, I’ll ask all of you:
Why isn’t Power Grid on your board games...
The dating website I use (yes, OKCupid. We all know that. See earlier post.) sent me a happy birthday email and told me to click the link for my special birthday matches. Turns out I was linked to the normal “matches” page. Listing all the people who never respond to my emails. Happy fucking birthday to me.

I’ve forgotten the combination to my rarely used combination lock. I don’t have an immediate need for the device and I hope that admitting this forgetfulness won’t impede my remembering when I’m holding the object in my hand.
yes, okcupid is my dating website of choice.

I’m on vacation. Got into New Orleans last night just before midnight. Have visited two decent bars and the casino. Made it to the gym. Cochon is the lunch plan.

I’m currently reading The Ask by Sam Lipsyte. There’s a density to the pop culture prose that I cannot get enough of. I’m ready to be in the subway station bound for home, my nose buried in the book.
i’d really like to make blank greeting cards for a living. i just haven’t solved the envelope issue yet. maybe i’ll look around the internet for ways to make envelopes. but that means glue. and i’ve never thought about my future involving massive amounts of glue.
but i’m a firm believer that blank greeting cards are hard to find. maybe it’s more of an issue...

Two nights of lodging have been booked in New Orleans. I’m starting to get excited about Baseball Road Trip 2010.
I like to go places on my bike. I don’t like to exercise.
