  • in-and-out

    What a week it’s been. What am I saying? Every week’s one of those “What a week it’s been!” weeks. Chewed up at the front end, soaked in sewer water all through the middle, and pooped out the back end. But at least I’m out. And one more lucky guy got out for good. One… Read.

    I ate the tastiest meatball sandwich for dinner last night. We swung by the Alchemy Cafe because it was Thursday, and on Thursday nights I’m in charge of coming up with the dinner, so I usually come up with the suggestion to stop at Alchemy. We have yet to be disappointed by anything we’ve eaten… Read.

    The internet police were after me last night. I didn’t sleep very well, and every time I woke up and then fell back into drowsy semi-consciousness I was treated to another variation of some guy in dark glasses making vaguely threatening accusations and serving me with a warrant to seize my computer as evidence. That… Read.

    Beer again. Count yourself lucky. It’s either this, or space geekery. I don’t have the brainpower to come up with anything more original than this right now. A lot of nice details in this photo, as bad as it is, and it’s pretty bad. I couldn’t even be bothered to angle it so the overhead… Read.

Usually, I think of a beer I’d like to drink, google the name of it, and click through the various recipes until I find one that sounds like it’s… Read.

    Twelve hours later and no activity at all. The yeast seems to be completely inactive. First time that’s ever happened to me. UPDATE: 6:28 pm – False alarm. The beer’s okay. I was a little worried that I did something that would have killed the yeast, and I’ve spent the whole day going over and… Read.

  • awful

    Almost twenty-two hours after tickets went on sale for the Wisconsin Film Fest, My Darling B is still trying to get tickets to a couple of the shows we wanted to see. One of them is sold out, but she’s so darn sure she ought to have tickets to it that she’s written to one… Read.
