Had a dream that my guinea pig ran away

Uncategorized

Not just ran away but made a break for it. I remember in the dream having her out in the street. Then I think I put her on the ground and she was off running.

side note

Now if you’ve never seen a guinea pig run, you are missing out, get with it man! She’s so fat but has these little bitty legs that move so fast that all you see is a blur. She kind of looks like an impalla lowrider when the hydrolics are fully extended. Or like a big potato on 4 toothpicks, just really awkward.

So in this dream she heads for the sewer, so I run after her. She goes in… I’m right behind her. She goes down the hole with the ladder… I go face first down the hole. I almost catch her at the bottom, but she gets into a pipe about a foot wide. I reach for her… but she escapes into some kind of sewer netherworld. It was sad, cause I know that there’s no luring a guinea pig out of anywhere. She stays where ever she wants to, the only way is to grab her. So anyway that’s when I woke up.

Being stuck in pipes is not cool. I don’t even want to dream about it.

Later!

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of sleep.

I shall fear no bol weevels. I am slowly killing myself with lack of sleep. I think I’m averaging about 5 hours a night this week. In bed around midnight, alarm at 6… rinse repeat. And those are the normal nights, one night it was bed at 130 and up at 430 (for some reason) After a week like that I’m a walking zombie. I look deceptivly awake, except in meetings where I have nothing to focus on. So it’s a fight to keep my head off the table. I almost fell over walking to the bathroom and I think I might have dozed off on the throne…

Who knows, I might be alseep right now. I had all these fun things to write but now nothing sounds better than going home and getting some Z’s. But I think I’ve already used that excuse this pay period… and it ends tomorrow.

Later!

Blog cleaning time!

Uncategorized

I decided that it was time for a little spring cleaning. First off i got rid of the style switcher and “greatest hits” side menus. I think they were just making the page load slower and mostly useless. Like anything here has a reason anyway! I might replace them with a new blosxom plugin, but not today. I’ve been noticing that there were still some IE vs Firefox differences in the CSS. Which are a complte pain in the ass to fix. I think I’ve worked through most of the issues. There were some stray padding values in the <"a"> tags. I worked on the main content style adding a colored title bar and a better defined footer to each post. I also got rid of the big date bar that would seperate days worth of posts, Because honestly I never post more than one per day. Looks good I think!

I was trying to embed a font in the css file so that I could have a cool header to each post. But after about 2 hours of messing with it I just gave up and went with the color and bold font. I like how CSS zen garden always uses them. But I guess It’s not for today. Slowly getting there!

Later!

Weekend update cont.

Uncategorized

ok so here it goes.

Alright so we went to the Nats game on Friday. Then comes saturday. We spent pretty much the whole day just lounging around the house doing nothing. I’m sure Jesse was doing something, he always is. We’ve been planning to go see Jim Gaffigan in DC ever since we saw his Comedy Central special “Beyond the Pale”. This was going to be the same show. But just like Brian Regan w hoped that he would do some new/old stuff too. I’d been purposley not watching the special on the DVR because I wanted to forget the jokes, which is really hard… cause they’re funny dammit! After waiting in line for overproced beer the show began. And of course Gaffigan did not dissappoint! He was awesome. Good show my man. I really can’t remember one specific joke, cause I was laughing too hard the whole time.

Sunday came and it was time to relax and watch the monkeys work on Bobby’s new stereo system. I amused myself by painting a ray gun on my door. I’m still waiting on Jesse for a finished picture. Hopefully I’ll be able to post that soon.

Later!

Weekend Update.

Uncategorized

Man this weekend was full of stuff to do. On friday we went to the Nationals Braves game in DC. I just stayed after work so I wouldn’t have to drive my tired ass all the way out to Vienna and back. We met up at Jeff’s apartment near George Washington and did a little pre game drinking. I was going to smuggle a bag o’ vodka into the stadium but I had heard that the security wasn’t exactly fort knox. So I had a few “skinny bitches”, Diet Coke and vodka. I don’t really like skinny bitches… real or beverage. So we leave for the game, at the exact game time it decides to start pouring. Forcing an hour long rain delay… but we decide to head out anyway. The delay wasn’t that bad, we were in covered seats. wo we just talked and watched some morons run around the stadium with their shirts off. The game was… well it was a baseball game… so not that exciting. But Soriano did go 4 for 5 with 3 home runs. That’s right, we’re lucky.

I don’t feel like posting the rest right now. So i’ll continue this later.
