I got the following email from ESPN yesterday:

I don’t think I should have to list the reasons why it makes me want to punch babies (that’s my latest thing when I get mad), but it’s your lucky day, because I’m in a sharing mood.
The subject line of this email: Valentine’s Special — Give Your Guy [...]

Years and years and years ago (sometime in December of 2001), upon the insanely strong recommendation of a friend, I went to go see Michael Franti and Spearhead at a little joint called The Blue Note in Columbia, MO. I’d barely gotten a chance to listen to the music before four of us headed from [...]

Despite the fact that I’m still living in my apartment, the management company had decided it would be a great idea to go ahead and show it. I get that in order to maximize the amount of rent they’ll be getting, they want to rent it out as soon as possible.
HOWEVER.
Since I’m in the process [...]

I love Flickr. A LOT. It’s solved so many of my photo organization and storage problems that I would probably name my first child after it. Every once in a while, it does this thing that absolutely infuriates me.
I upload some photos like, you know, one does when they fully utilize all of the awesome [...]

Erica (of cinna.mn and fresh.mn fame) invited me to tag along to a Timberwolves game last night, since she’d received two suite tickets with her Lynx season ticket package. I couldn’t really say no, because HEY I LIKE BASKETBALL.
Coincidentally enough, last night was Kevin McHale’s second coaching debut, since Randy Wittman got the axe earlier [...]

Here it is the first day of NaBloPoMo(Lmnsosalkja – it’s just a lot of letters!) and I was worried I wouldn’t have anything to write about. But since I ventured into public today, that ended up not being a problem.
Riley had an appointment today to get some scheduled vaccinations. When I got there, they reminded [...]

I watched the video below (via Erica) today on two occasions: once without sound and once with. Without sound, I immediately noticed the familiar sight of the “Sunset Motel” from my many years and now many visits to my hometown of Sedalia, Missouri.
And then I watched the video:

America Is F*cked…….(Graphically at least) from Jess Gibson [...]

Hey, you knew a Comcast rant was coming! Since moving automatically involves interaction Comcast, it was bound to happen.
2/12: I called Comcast to set up a disconnect at my old apartment and a reconnect at my new apartment. I did it 2 weeks in advance, just so there wouldn’t be a long amount of time [...]

Seriously.
I’ve been a customer since 2004, which is really all that long, but for me? That’s a long ass commitment. And since October, I’ve wanted to kick them in the shins. My phone, which I bought sometime last spring and still had to stretch my contract out for two more years, has turned into a [...]

So, tonight? We went to Dixie’s on Grand, where they were celebrating Fat Tuesday with some free beads and a performance from Jack Brass Band. We love both of those, so we went!  When I finally found  a place to park, I realized I’d parked right in front of the management company who denied me [...]
