I am here for Friends

About Me

I don't do well with describing myself. One of my favorite books and films, High Fidelity, says, "What matters is what you like, not what you are like." I agree with that, up to a point. I can easily tell you about the things, and people, that I like, but telling you about me is more complex.
To give the short, short version:
The job is no longer new. It's not the best I've ever had, but I doubt it'll be the worst, either. For now, it'll do.
I have a small group of friends about whom I care deeply, but more are always welcome.
I used to be a vocalist, back in the day. I suppose technically I still am, if you count singing in the car, the shower, and at karaoke when I visit Albany. But I've got to say, I've been starting to think about maybe doing something a little more than that. Maybe. No promises.
I adore my nieces.
I have strange talents for buying appropriate greeting cards and recognizing celebrity voice-overs.
Ask me a question, and I'll answer it. Usually at length, using longer words than are really necessary.
I've quit smoking; as of this writing, it's been 518 days. It sounds so impressive, and yet, I STILL miss it.
Did I miss anything? Other than, y'know, the cigarettes.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Trying the YouTube.com playlist route, recently updated (3/3/08).
If it doesn't work (and at the moment, 7/26, it appears not to be; it's only letting you see the first video. Which, while cool and all, doesn't really accomplish what I was going for) you should be able to access it here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=F9DE329AF9983579

Fall Out Boy has their new album in its entirety streaming on their MySpace page at the moment. I could've been patient, and waited the week till the CD arrives at my door. But patience has never been...

The internet (via Weather.com) is telling me that I shouldn't be in that much pain, right now. My pain is telling the internet to STFU. Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow. I was sitting at lunch, minding ...

OK, seriously - WTF?

I was supposed to be out having fun playing games in a comic book store with some cool people, but I'm not. I'm home, watching a Netflixed Muppet Show DVD. Which is cool, and all, but not exactly how ...

I Don’t Care What You Think (As Long As It’s About Me)

So I went home last night to check out the new single off of the forthcoming Fall Out Boy album; it was released on their website. In case you were wondering... I like it, and it's growing on me with ...

Owie.

So. Tired. Of being. In pain. Fell down some stairs during work yesterday. Smashed my face into a banister. Nothing's broken, but I'm pretty banged up. Who the hell did I piss off karmically? I mean, ...

Note to self:When you've been put on a decongestant, despite the fact that everything you've read says you shouldn't take decongestant, don't drink a gigantic cup of fucking coffee on top of it. Holy ...

Oy.

Summer cold. Feel like warmed over butt. Actually, per the doctor, it's sinusitis. I don't really know what that means other than a cold they give you antibiotics for, so I'm sticking with summer cold...

RIP: Jeff Healey

X-posted from other journals. I found out this afternoon that one of my all-time favorite musicians passed away last night. Apparently, he continued to battle the cancer that took his sight at the age...
