New Years Eve, 1920
ME: (wearing my Richard Harrow mask) I am going to look so cool.
MOM: You have to take it off when you eat, though.
ME: And then I'll put it back on as soon as I'm done.
MOM: You're so weird.
ME: It's a costume party!
MOM: Everyone else is just going to be dressed as flappers and gangsters.
ME: Yes, everyone else will be boring and I will win.

let's go to the mall, everybody!
So.
I saw Robin Sparkles’ “Let’s Go To The Mall” about two years ago. Last night, I saw the episode of How I Met Your Mother (“Slap Bet”) where Barnaby finds Robin’s video and it was that.
…All this time, I thought it was real. I thought HIMYM was parodying it because her name also happens to be Robin.
*hides in a hole*
EDIT: I recall telling...

i won't think about it now...
I’ll think about it tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the day two strapping young Marine movers come to transport my furniture from the condo to my room here. It’s going to involve lots of maneuvering on my dad’s and my part, in order to get the room in one piece and not make the veteran, possibly sexy guys work for too long and move too much extra stuff.
Stuff being moved from the condo...

the ivory tower.
I watched the second episode of Boardwalk Empire tonight. I love HBO Go. My Sundays don’t have to be bereft. It almost makes me glad to be so many episodes behind…
I’m already planning to watch it again on Friday, since Christmas is a holiday and all. Every weekend will be Boardwalk Weekend! Until I probably crack and watch them whenever I want to because I have no self...

My parents kept bringing up my monaural hearing loss today, while we were shopping for Christmas presents/eating dinner. While I’ve gotten used to it over the years, it still brings back some unpleasant memories. Mostly ones of people making fun of me for the way I talk out of one side of my mouth more than the other…
Fa la la la la, la la la la! Tis the season to bring up that...

Imma screw it up, cos I'm an idiot!
So, I’m catching up on Boardwalk Empire on HBO Go, cos I didn’t catch on that it’s amazing until I saw a picture of Richard getting drawn by Angela. My heart went out to him, my interest was piqued and I started watching at “Gimcrack & Bunkum”.
Well, I just noticed the “available until” date on the episodes on HBO Go and was flailing cos I thought I...

boardchuck empire?
This was my last dream before waking up. We were sitting in a diner. I guess I was Jimmy’s date, but I got ignored and never really got to say anything, which means I probably WAS his date. The time period would change depending on who spoke, so that the characters could remain in character when they said something. Kind of cool, if it wasn’t also freaky.
JIMMY: She’s too...

JENN: We went on a bird walk the other day. Did I tell you that?

JENN: We saw a whole bunch of birds.
DAD: Oh, nice. Did you see the whole Birdwalk Empire?

DAD: Do you know who sang that first? RYAN: It wasn’t The Presidents of the United States of America? DAD: Nope. Someone sang it first. JENN: What? ME: Was the band’s name just a word different from another band’s name? DAD: No. JENN: How many syllables is it? MOM: What is this, charades? DAD: 1 in the first word, 1 in the second word and 2 in the last word. There are three...
