Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

for those of you who like Cook's Illustrated or watch America's Test Kitchen, the cookbooks from ATK are AWESOME

My brother is a missionary for ATK. He pimped them at us all during Christmas, and now I have one of the books on my wishlist.

I don't have Earthquake straps, but I bought some brackets at the hardware store and strapped my bookshelves to the walls using climbing webbing. Seems to work okay, I hope.

I got one of my friends Cook's Illustrated's The New Best Recipe for Xmas, and I totally wanted to keep it for myself.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I AM SO VERY HOME.

Hey Allyson! Welcome back.

Also, we borrowed a DVD (Love Actually). Will return ASAP.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yay! Glad you're back, Allyson. I'm about to go to bed I think.

I just updated all my lists and projects, and I feel all accomplished. I'll be so dissapointed when it all goes to the wayside around March.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I wanted to buy my parents that movie for Christmas. I thought it would make a much better family holiday movie than "When Harry Met Sally" You have not been mortified by your parents until your step-father puts the Meg Ryan fake-gasm on the "Stadium" setting on the surround-sound.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yay Allyson!

I just got a collection notice from my apartment management company threatening me with all sorts of bad things if I didn't pay my utility bill (to an outside company), which seems to be past due. Of course, since I have never in my life gotten a bill from the outside utility company, I am somewhat at a loss as to just how the fuck I was supposed to pay it in the first place.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Do they maybe pay it, and you're supposed to pay them? How long have you lived there? How long have they been smoking the bad monkey crack?

Keep it as long as you like, Kat. Thank you for taking good care of my Ruby!

According to the letter, I am supposed to pay the rep directly. Of course, the rep only has office hours M, W, F, 9-4. I guess I will go in and raise a fuss tomorrow and see if I can get an answer, and if not be I will just have to be late for work on Wednesday.
