The InvisiBill Story

Sunday, May 23rd, 2004

So I’m at a friends wedding a few years ago(and they are still together today, amazing!), with Naeem and the Azeem, watching the preshow preparations. The twin sister of the bride, both of whom I have known for years, walks right by us in a rush. Ignores all of us. She gets to the bridal [...]

Social Events

Saturday, May 22nd, 2004

Strange. I’ve been quite sociable lately. This party tomorrow that I’m hosting, the dinner Young organized last night, and the Goon Meet tonight. The Goon Meet I was only there for about an hour and a half, and probably looked like the most unhappy person there, but that’s because it was all a bunch of [...]

Part Preperations

Saturday, May 22nd, 2004

Things are as ready as I think I can make them today. Speakers installed, food in the fridge. I’ll show up early, and just double check everything. Just gotta pull the ice out of the freezer, and we’re off!

Midnight Surprise

Wednesday, May 19th, 2004

Was woken up late last night by my roommate returning. He had been gone 20 days in the lovely Pacific Ocean and Asia on assignment. I was expecting him early today, but nope, I woke up when he got back in.

New Tires

Tuesday, May 18th, 2004

Bought 5 new tires for the truck today. Went from 245/75R16 to 265/75R16. Should give me better flotation on soft surfaces like mud or sand. But I’ll say this, damn was that expensive! Most money I have spent on one thing in a long time. At least they should last me 50,000 miles or so.
Now [...]

Beach BBQ and Sailing info:
When: Sunday, May 23rd, 11am till dusk. Show up as you please, and enjoy!
What: BBQ, sailing, miscellaneous beach actives. Bring clothing to go in the water with, sun screen, and a good attitude. My main thought is a constant amount of food cooking, with people going out sailing all throughout the [...]

Weekend, Beach Party, New Music

Sunday, May 16th, 2004

Just got back in. Spent today cleaning and preparing the house at Newport for the summer, and incidentally, this party next Sunday. Looks in very good shape now. Only thing is, now that I’ve fixed (I think) various pipes, I smell like sewer gas. A quick shower will fix that though!
My copy of the Complete [...]

Dogs who like attention while we work

Saturday, May 15th, 2004

I’m working on importing all my old posts into this WordPress set up right now, and the dog Scout barges in wanting attention. I pet her, rub her belly, give her what she wants, and then she leaves. Typical. Typical of what, I leave for you to fill in the blank.

Which Muppets Character am I

The Count’s Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
It started with a simple affection for counting andthe terror it induced in others, didn’t it? But now it’s turned into a full-blown life-consuming chaotic nightmare of order, repetition, zealousness, and perfectionism. You used to be so grand, but now you find yourself obsessively worrying over the littlest things–like, maybe if you [...]
