All That 'In-the-Future' Kind of Stuff...
Those dudes over at the
Ministry of Minor Perfidy are hosting this week's
Carnival of the Future ... it's #16 this time, you know ...
And since I don't have anything even remotely positive to say after today's adventures, I highly recommend you read their stuff instead. It's far better reading. And probably more useful too...
Plus, Buckethead tells good stories, so go give him some traffic and tell him the Princess sent you. And if you really want him to like you, take some beer...

You don't need to make an offering of beer. I like people who have not brought me beer.
But it certainly helps.

I have to agree, I've never had beer in my possesion when I've met Buckethead, but it's always been in a place where beer is readily available.

This is because it's good to have a beer around. It's better to have many beers around, however.
(Speaking of which, when's the next time for drinking said beers?)

Off, Off, and Away!
7 Day Forcast for A Swift Kick & A Band-Aid:
Mom's house
That's right, it's family time again ... dammit ... I'm hopping myself on a plane this evening and landing my ass in LA. But at least it is a direct flight this time...
Blogging will be lighter that usual but I won't be disappearing entirely this time. I'll need ya'll in order to keep my sanity. Christmas with my family is just plain drama.
Last year I lost all the trust I had built up in my brother because of how badly he acted. This year, he's pissed at me for putting my foot down about the step-family. I'm sure that will blow up pretty hardcore in the next couple of days. But I'm still waiting to see who will be the big winner of this year's Christmas Douche Award for greatest betrayal. Anyone want to place their bets?

I'll "Bet" it was the cook... in the lounge... with the candlestick. Anything else would be absurd! :^)
Merry Christmas.

I am afraid my own brother owns the market on Christmastime douchebaggery...

On Irony
Some days, the very thing that I love about blogging is the one thing I hate. What brings a smile to my face and a little boost to my ego most of the time, on a different day, can leave me slightly resentful with a dash of bitter taste in my mouth.
People read me. I have regular readers. My site meter continues to climb.
I have no idea who most of these people are. I have no idea why they come here to read about my battles through grad school and the drama of being mid-20's. The majority of readers I will never know or meet and some of them I already do.
People think I'm interesting. I contribute something to someone else's life. Maybe I make them smile too.
I come here to share my happiness and hope it spreads, to be whimsical in ways my real life cannot afford, to connect with others in the world that I may never otherwise know. I write here to spend a few moments wallowing in my disappointments before I put them away, to spew my pain before it breaks me under its weight, to vent my anger before it eats me alive.
But, dammit, people read me ... and I cannot find peace at their expense ...

I come here not because you're my blog-sis, nor do you provide me with some amazing insight, but because I figure chicks dig a guy who reads.
Especially a guy who reads chicks.
(was that offensive enough for you?)
There... so your sitemeter is climbing, huh? Lucky lady.

The good thing about posting "vents" is that someone might read it and think, "Wow... I thought I was the only one. I don't feel alone any more."
Nothing wrong with venting.

On Lurking
As promised when I started as an intern, I finally coughed up the URL to my blog. The other intern and my boss now have a free pass to read anything and everyting I have ever written about them or while working with them.
Everybody stop and wave to the boss... *beauty queen wave*
Tomorrow is my last day so I figure, what the hell... what's the worst that could happen? At least they didn't stalk me to find it ...

Hi, Boss!
Hi, Co-worker!
If you want to see all the bad stuff she wrote about you, you've got to check other people's blogs. Or not.
Heheheh...

Dude, Remember That One Time...?
I found this nifty little idea over at
Tammi's Place, who found it at
Sgt Hook's Place, who found it at
Acidman's Place, etc...
Please post a comment with a completely fictional memory of you and me. It can be anything you want– good or bad, silly or stupid, believable or not – but it has to be fake. (I expect you to be really creative here too!)
When youÂ’re finished, post this paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people donÂ’t actually remember about you.
I can only imagine what you people don't remember about me...

awww... Cat... remember that one time we found the wild onions and ate of them heartily and it turned out they were some sort of mushroom instead and we spent that long, glorious night torturing hobos, eventually forcing them to duel each other in our demented bloodsports (as if we would really let any of them live?)along the Amtrak line between Gainesville and Charlotte, me in my yellow jumpsuit with the Transformer logo on the back, you with your thigh-high jack boots and Spider-woman outfit with the sequined boddice? Good times... good times...

remember that time we went out in austin on sixth street? you drank way too much and were trying to look sexy to that big guy as you snapped yourself silly with your own bra strap. too bad he turned out to be the doorman. you got drug out, and i think you were mugging down with a vagrant under the congress street bridge when we finally found you.
oh yeah, that's not a memory, it's a premonition. see you in april?
mwah!

Â… remember that time we sat on those comfortable park benches across from the Library of Congress?... you gave me a piece of Japanese candy.. weÂ’d just visited the National Portrait Gallery, and visions of Toulouse LautrecÂ’s bawdy paintings were still dancing in our noggins as we sucked on the candy and watched the world pass byÂ…
… I’ll never forget what you said… poetic and shocking… “that Toulouse guy was amazing… never in a million years would I have ever thought that a inbred, drunken dwarf Frenchman would have turned me on so… if we’d stayed at that exhibit much longer, I would have needed some sort of sponge..”…
Â… remember?... I nearly choked on my candyÂ….

Remember that time we were in that Turkish Prison, we were watching movies with gladiators and you commented you had never been in a cockpit before, heck yo'd never been in a plane before...those were fun times, atleast you can no longer say you haven't seen a grown man naked anymore.

Remember that time we were in Australia, stealing opals from the mine's warehouse? Do you still have that little scar on your leg from where that Aborigine nicked you with his boomarang?
