"And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt." – Sylvia Plath

my doppel
In an attempt to whore for my friend T, who apparently is in the Witness Protection Program, I present you with my one and only daily doppelganger:


G. Ogden Nutting, destroyer of so many Pirates' fans hopes
C. Montgomery Burns

liebchen, trotter & fletcher
We've done a lot of work on our house the past few weeks -- new furnace (grrrr), new paint in every room, and a new-ish kitchen floor, with a darker stain ... and now we're in decoration mode.
Our guest bedroom has long been a pit -- it's my room, actually, where I get dressed and otherwise throw clothes on the floor, bed and (if they'd stick) the walls. But no more! Now that it's painted and pretty, we have to keep it nice.
We went to Ikea and got a metric shitload of frames, some little night stands and a really nice bookshelf above the bed, to take the place of a headboard. We spent all day putting the shelf up ... it's name is "Lack" and I think that's pretty prophetic, because I lacked even the basic skills to hang it properly. But it's up, and to show that I have faith in my work, I slept under it that night, and I didn't wake up dead, so it must be OK.
But what to put in the frames on the shelves? We think these three will do just fine in 12 x 18 ...

Give them laptops in school and this happens.

diggy on minnetonka
This dog loves to swim. We had him out on Lake Minnetonka last week and he was a wild man. The saddest part was when my wife and I were floating out about 100 feet off shore, just relaxing, and he was on the boat, just freaking out because he wasn't with us.
The couple we were with let him off his leash, and he hauled ass out to us, swimming as fast as he could, and all the time he was whining and crying these pathetic little cries.
He's such a baby.

i'd like to see the doctor's note on this
Can you imagine not going to work tomorrow because you hurt your foot? And when your supervisor asks you why, you say, "Well ... I kicked a burning terrorist in the balls so hard that I tore a tendon in my foot" ...
Reading this story reminded me of Larry David's desire to help out his fellow man on "Curb Your Enthusiasm." To set the clip up, the chef of Larry's new restaurant has Tourette's Syndrome.
My favorite part: "Fellatio. Cunnilingus. French kissing. (pause) Rim job!"
