Current Location:my kitchen
Subject:To whom it may concern:
Time:12:38 pm
1 bag of Farfalle (bowtie pasta)
1 apple (chopped)
1 cup feta
1/2 cup pine nuts (or 1 cup chopped walnuts)

While the pasta is boiling for 10 minues and the nuts are baking at 400, chop up the apple.
Drain the pasta then add the nuts (sprinkle with olive oil and rosemary)
Add the apples if you want them warm. I think they are better cold and crunchy.
Add the feta if you want it gooey. I like it crumbly.
While the pasta is sitting why don't you make some garlic toast?
I mean come on.

hey look lj isn't blocked by my proxy. i can type stuff here and it appears there.
i sent a few people pictures of my new house. if you didn't get any and want to see them just email me please.
labor day weekend was great. kelly and I canoe'd the missouri river for about 4 hours, stopped at Lewis and Clark cave, but couldn't get very far in since there are endangered bats breeding inside. we biked about 10 miles up the Katy trail. for those who don't know it's about the length of the state, 250 miles and converted from a railroad which means it's relativly straight and flat, but damn the scenery is beautiful. on the west you have the missouri river and on the right you have either 100 ft tall rocky cliffs with caves and pictograms or creekbeds and forests teaming will all sorts of foresty crap!
we're going to bike on it more, maybe do the whole trail some day.
oh and before we did the river we stopped at a winery and got hooked up with some free drinks. i love how there's no liquor tax and you can actually buy stuff on Sunday. (Shh don't tell Jesus) Even the grocery stores sell wine and liquor. Too bad for my liver :(
let's see, what else is new. Kelly and I love our jobs. She is busy learning new tests and doing whatever wills her boss, Molly. But she is cool since she they have a lot in common and she looks like Janeane Garofalo.
We miss having people over all the time. I make extra tacos or saussage cheese balls for the cats, but they just scoff so I kick them.
We are coming back in town in 2 weeks for Jason and Dawn's reception (probably) so give us a ring if there's something going on or you want to hang out!

Current Mood:[mood icon] confused
So I stop by Starbucks this morning and I think the cashier was hitting on me. She could have very well been mentally handicapped, which would explain a lot, but she was all asking me about where I work and she was smiling, trying to show off her lack of interest for dental care. First off when I place my order at the telecom she read back my drink and price then asked if I wanted anything for later tonight. And I’m all “uh, what do you mean?” She said “like you know, ground coffee and stuff.” I guess that’s Starbuck’s equivalency of super-sizing. After declining her most tantalizing offer I pull to the window. As she charges my card she starts leaning out the window asking where I’m going this morning. To me it feels like she’s passed the realm of small talk and is actually interrogating me on my whereabouts. I tell her I’m just going to work to which she acts surprised and interested in a real creepy way.
“So where do you work?” she asks, far exceeding the boundary of near-complete strangers. Maybe she was working for a tip or something. I’m not sure. I guess I could have slid her a couple bucks, or even 89 cents so she could buy some Suave.
“I work downtown at the AutoZone corporate office.”
“Oh that sounds like fun!”
“Um why,” I glare.
“To work on cars all day!” Maybe she’s forgotten that I’ve ordered a white chocolate mocha and it’s been placed right next to her elbow.
“No I work in the corporate office fixing computers. I don’t really get to work on too many cars.” She seemed a little disappointed but still smiled a lot more than necessary for our meager transaction. I got my Mocha and pulled off into a parking spot. Then to confuse her I got out and filled my antifreeze coolant tank with antifreeze coolant that it had been lacking for weeks now. I didn’t look to see if she was watching, but I hope she was all WTF?
 
Then I was driving down Sam Cooper and stopped at a red light where the ghetto apartments are. I saw a white bronco pull up to 5 kids wearing backpacks walking down the street. The tallest of the group opened the rear hatch and they all climbed in. The car sped off in the opposite direction of the school.
 
Then I turned onto East Parkway and noticed a lonely lawn chair in the median. Suspecting it belonged to a wayward newspaper vendor I looked into Overton Park. Sure enough there was a 75 year old man drinking a 40 from a paper bag at 7:30 in the morning.
 
::sniff sniff:: I will truly miss this fair city of ours.

Subject:Do I play too much WoW or work too much?
Time:06:56 am
Current Mood:[mood icon] sleepy

So this lady calls and she's frantic about balancing her accounts, but I can't get much information out of her. Then I find out she's a remote user at a goddamn craft fair. So I'm like hell no I’m not helping her. (yes it’s a double negative on purpose. Isn’t everything? Isn’t nothing.) Ok so anyways, she must have called the wrong number.... yet she has the correct version of OnQ. I look her up in Remedy and sure enough it says Lady in Craft Fair. I'm like fuck, "ok what's your problem." (yes I used the mute button in my dream) She starts telling me about this side program she has that's supposed to be an adventure game user interface to get into her house accounts, so I remote in and start walking around as this little warrior kid from some cheap-ass video game for kids and I can't find shit. I ask why she's not using a Hilton supported pc and has she kept up with updates. Thankfully she wasn't on the Hilton network so she couldn't connect to CRS and pull the reports she was looking for. So I told her to call back when she could get on our LAN. (How I connected to her is beside the point)
Then in the next dream some guy called because he couldn't find some AR accounts he was looking for. So I remote in and start walking around as his warrior character only it's in WoW. So I told him that's part of his problem, there are no AR accounts in WoW and he needs to stop smoking crack. The he asked if I could help him complete some quests because he was unable to find any quest items on his list. So I say why not and look through his quest log. That fucker was a human with undead quests. I was like WTC, how you even got those quests is beyond me, but I can only imagine you're going to continue to have problems until you start a new character. He was a bit disappointed and mumbled something about how we're worthless and he'll play with it himself. Yeah good luck, buddy.
(I'm not even going to get into the dream where I couldn't let someone else into my room because there were already 3 people in there and you can not book 4 to a king room. That's just gross, dude.)
So anyways I guess the dreams express the frustration we feel when people call demanding we tell them how to fix something they don't know how they messed up. Like a folio with a dozen extra postings and adjustments they tried to cover up by only fucking it up more. They get all bitchy like it's my fault they can't use a calculator. The first lesson in Guided Tour is how to use a pointing device so the second one should be remedial math skills. If you don't know that a negative balance means the customer has a credit and if you post a payment, the credit will only increase (though the balance will decrease, see the negative sign? the minus sign? the dash? yeah yeah that's the negative sign, it means less than 0... it means... nevermind, what's your password. I'll do it. 
But it's ok... they are just blindly angry. If I haven't learned to not take it personally I shouldn't still be working here.
I wonder if Starbucks is hiring...

Current Mood:gothic?

Presented by St. Mary's Church

Is Your Child a Goth?

Listed below are some warning signs to indicate if your child may have gone astray from the Lord. Gothic (or goth) is a very obscure and often dangerous culture that young teenagers are prone to participating in. The gothic culture leads young, susceptible minds into an imagined world of evil, darkness, and violence. Please seek immediate attention through counselling, prayer,
and parental guidance to rid your child of Satan's temptations if five or more of the following are applicable to your child.

-Frequently wears black clothing.

-Wears band and/or rock t-shirts.

-Wears excessive black eye makeup,lipstick or nail polish.

-Wears any odd silver jewelry or symbols.

-Shows an interest in piercings or tattoos.

-Listens to gothic or any other anti-social genres of music. (Marilyn Manson claims to be the Anti Christ, and publicly speaks against the Lord. Please discard any such albums IMMEDIATELY.)

-Associates with other people that dress, act or speak eccentrically.

-Shows a declining interest in wholesome activities, such as: the Bible, prayer, church or sports.

-Shows an increasing interest in death, vampires, magic, the occult, witchcraft or anything else that involves Satan.

-Takes drugs. 

-Drinks alcohol. 

-Is suicidal and/or depressed.

-Cuts, burns or partakes in any other method of self-mutilation.(This is a Satanic ritual that uses pain to detract from the light of God and His love. Please seek immediate attention for this at your local mental health center.)

-Complains of boredom.

-Sleeps too excessively or too little.

-Is excessively awake during the night.

-Demands an unusual amount of privacy.

-Spends large amounts of time alone.

-Requests time alone and quietness. (This is so that your chid
may speak to evil sprits through meditation.)

-Insists on spending time with friends while unaccompanied by an adult.

-Disregards authority figures; teachers, priests, nuns and elders are but a few examples of this.

-Misbehaves at school.

-Misbehaves at home.

-Eats excessively or too little

-Eats goth-related foods. Count Chocula cereal is an example of this.

-Drinks blood or expresses an interest in drinking blood. (Vampires believe this is how to attain Satan. This act is very dangerous and should be stopped immediately.)

-Watches cable television or any other corrupted media sources. (Ask your local church for proper programs that your child may watch.)

-Plays videos games that contains violence or role-playing nature.

-Uses the internet excessively and frequently makes time for the computer.

-Makes Satanic symbols and/or violently shakes head to music.

-Dances to music in a provocative or sexual manner.

-Expresses an interest in sex.

-Masturbates.

-Is homosexual and/or bisexual.

-Pursues dangerous cult religions. Such include: Satanism,
Scientology, Philosophy, Paganism, Wicca, Hinduism and Buddhism.

-Wears pins, stickers or anything else that contains these various phrases: "I'm so gothic, I'm dead", "woe is me", "I'm a goth".

-Claims to be a goth.

If five or more of these apply to your child, please intervene immediately. The gothic culture is dangerous and Satan thrives within it. If any of these problems persist, enlist your child into your local mental health center.

Hello, impersonal Live Journal. You know what else pisses me off? People who try to use words to make themselves seem smarter. Like using the word "whom" or "whomever" alllllll the time. Outlook is fully capable of grammar checking your email before you send it. It knows the difference between subjective and objective cases and you can too!
Also when people say "either." As in "either side of the river" when they mean to say "both sides of the river." It can be one or the other, not both. Ok... ok... I'll calm down...

Why not let Spike TV have more wrestling and then give Star Trek TNG to SciFi? I mean goddamn. What's the world coming to?

Ok call me lame if you want to, but i couldn't resist pre-ordering the Weird-Al Show dvd set that's coming out in August. It was a kids show on CBS's Saturday Morning in the late 90's if you don't remember. I can make copies if anyone is interested in seeing it. Apparently there's few things I'll buy and not download including Weird Al and Tool. Two great tastes that taste great together.
He has a new album with 1 song released so far.
You can download it here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, or here.

Or here or here, not to mention here.
