snowday!

it’s a beautiful day …

mcdonald’s.

yea i’ve been holding off on posting this because i’ve been pretty lazy but its pretty unavoidable right now because i’m too busy not starting my science essay to be concerned with wasting time posting
so here it is ..
.. wait where is it
well i’ll have to check my del.icio.us [skinned for aesthetic’s sake using pith] .. yes i finally got around to using delicious and i have to say that its a pretty good thing

anyways so the thing that i was talking about …
it is great
do check it out

anyways you folk might want to check out my delicious thing anytime you’re particularly bored because i link most things that i find that are the least bit interesting [including a lot of things that definitely won’t make it here (if only because i’m too lazy)]

yea snow(day) is likely for friday which should be a very good thing .. although it would be so ridiculously ideal to have one tomorrow in that i could spend all day doing my science essay [in effect starting this time tomorrow] and then hand it in friday .. but that’s most probably not going down so yea …. definitely had something else i wanted to mention but can’t quite remember what it was so screw it .. anyways definitely quite screwed for the science essay, meh .. no idea what it was well fuck that

…. just so everyone knows, the weekend will be muy bueno so folk might want to give me a ring or i might end up calling you very very late at night and waking you up (entirely out of spite) .. in all seriousness, sorry for all those that i do call late at night, you are a great sport about it and never seem to be too pissed and sometime actually put up with my intoxicated self

o yea another thing [still not the real thing] while brother was over here the weekend (and we fooled around with the fuel cell concluding it was faulty) we concluded that i should start selling 77% dark chocolate , we spent a while discussing a business plan and it’s all sorted out, very sorted out .. because there is a market, the demand exists but no one does it, except for me of course, as of the time when i start chocolate mixing … it’ll be very great because i mean the demand definitely exists in that some people just aren’t satisfied with 70% dark but might find 85% just a touch too bitter and not enough sweet .. now if we were to mix the two (maybe favoring the 85% in the mix just a little and then as a result changing the name to persay 77.7% ,because 77.5 is just not going to happen) .. well it’ll be great, so great .. i’m sure there are great margins too especially in the long run [carreer planning now] …
i see a future and its dark , just not too dark .

blur.

just so you know, I’m now listening to short skirt, long jacket (by cake for the losers who didn’t already know)
i would link you, you know that I would .. but I’m just a little pre-occupied and also convinced that I’ve linked it before so go hunting if you’re that interested

…. wait, I have lied, now I’m listening to blur … coffee & tv
well i’m quite liking blur these days you know [along with pulp , the moving units and the like] for one reason or another
anyways , cheers …

federico aubele : granhotelbuenosaires

should i stay or should i go …

great pic ; definitely one of the better pieces at the show

eleven.

half the letters (every other letter) in the word eleven are the letter e

this unusual revelation occurred at adrien’s house yesterday don’t quite know how or why but it did take place .. i also accurately guessed the number of letters in the word eleven in the process ; it was quite something really …. i would talk about friday night [and/or the first several hours of saturday] but i’m not quite in the mood [after wasting all that time with the sci essay thing, glad i got that off the ground though] .. so much for keeping this short, in order to maintain the impact of that sentence above i’m going to put a whole lot of space

i suppose that the least i could do for the bunch of you is link a little bit of the good mr carlos jobim .. excellent latin style jazz …. don’t remember how i found him but i’m sure i could remember some interesting story behind it ; it just felt appropriate well not really appropriate i was just in that mood not really that either, to tell you the truth it was just playing while i was writing and here we are

i kind of owe you folk a bit more than one song but i’ve got this tendency against multiple hosted links in a day, i begin to feel like i’m feeding people or something along those lines …. anyways i’ll pick out something nice from flickr for you guys in a bit …

no more blues.

forgot to link …

i was going through my selection of latin stuff and i haven’t had the chance to listen to it in a while which is a horrible shame i might up some more of that another time or i might forget
another thing just ordered Gran Hotel Buenos Aires by frederico aubele .. pretty enjoyable trippy-ish latin sort of acoustic guitar related stuff , anyways interestingly enough he’s an eighteenth street lounge artist and since only greatness comes from that exceptional lounge based label [including the good folk known as Thievery Corporation] i’m quite looking forward to its arrival along with my ‘pizza-stone’-based device

i almost didn’t keep my promise to go flickring [never again] and in all honesty i just took a couple from the most recent page of my favorites but its something
…. so enjoy it

wordpress.

experimenting with wordpress right now … might take too long to put together an original stylesheet (i don’t have any experience with CSS, although i definitely should) but yea … looks promising also a seemingly robust blogger import tool seems to exist so once i have something going there i’ll try that out .. but until then i suppose i’ll be here with blogger

taxi.

k well had the very greatest dc cab driver ever, well-comparable to some london cabs .. had a very serious convo with the driver who was great, very enlightened and also knew where he was going … the convo with him was very good, normally in cabs i’m just on the phone and i pay the guy with tip as a courtesy not as a you-deserved-it … but this guy was really interesting and we talked about some pretty serious stuff .. and after we got here (surprisingly fast) we talked for bit longer before i left … more people like that should drive my cabs

probably overtipped but he had it coming ..
