bullets, post-chsh and otherwise

  • Another fabulous time…I think this was my fifth. Big thanks to the organizing committee (Toni, Dan, Jess, Jason) and to all who helped!
  • Except, once again, I didn’t get to spend enough time with some of the people I wanted to see, and there were too many who could not make it at all. Someday we’ll find a way to alter spacetime so a 4 hour party can include 10 hours of socializing, with wormholes to get people here immediately and for free.
  • That said, I’m gathering from what I see today that there was some undercurrent of butthurt & drama. I wish we had a cure for that. And I hope I didn’t inadvertently cause any. (Update: what I see is mild, and I may be reading more into things than I should. Nevermind.)
  • I’ll take credit for the weather.
  • I’ve never been a hashtag before. I’m flattered. And frightened. Hold me?
  • Now playing: The Surreal McCoys’ The Bottle & The Gun, which warriormcpoet was kind enough to send via mrsbadcrumble to the last tweetup, and which I drunkenly left in the bar, and which Dan & Toni graciously hung onto and delivered. Great stuff, Shawn, and thanks again. Does the pedalboard in the booklet belong to one of your guitarists? God damn, them’s some pretty toys.
  • One of these days, I gotta do an out of town tweetup, get the full immersion experience.
  • Sunday morning, I had to get up at 6:30 with the kids. Went back to bed later for a couple of hours and woke up with a stye the size of a grapefruit. Either that, or a spider laid eggs in my face and the little babies will explode out of it sometime soon. 
  • Bright side: that should inspire some good rants.
  • Speaking of: what’s the deal with putting a $5 jack in a $35K car? DO YOU THINK I’LL BUY ANOTHER ONE AFTER LEAVING AN OUNCE OF MY KNUCKLES ON THE 7-11 PARKING LOT AFTER YOUR SHITTY TIRE BLEW UP, ACURA? IS THAT HOW WE’RE PLAYING THIS?
  • I kind of miss the chipmunks I transported to the forest preserve. They were cute and I liked having them around. But goddammit, these tomatoes are delicious.
  • I can’t find the hotdog name tag, and the other two I went to were pre-nametag, but I have a nice collection building here.
