Stupid Banana Raincoat Wearing B!*@#

Ummm, being that I am broke as broke comes right now, my domains have expired…

So if you normally get here via typinghurts.com or gabethexton.com you won’t be able to for a bit.

Hopefully I won’t get squatted.

And I hope you’re reading this.

Brief Metblog post, regarding ‘The Real World’ and a great prank.

You can’t do that, it’s not fair to your readers!

Giles was pissed that I posted a blog that was a title and nothing more. That word holds meaning for me, and I like the sound of it. That’s what the blog was.

I’m really freaking tired right now, because I stayed up so late reading last night. Now I’m gonna go read again, and probably do it for too long again. It’s that damnable Orson Scott Card and his Ender Wiggin books, they are way too interesting to be fair. They’re the kind that you blaze through on a day off and then reread over the next week so that you make sure you didn’t miss anything. But I’m cramming them into breaks, lunches, and bus rides. I still enjoy it, but I wanna just devour it instead of ‘picking’ at it.

It’s not often you can feel the humidity in Denver, but on a night like tonight with many clouds and a steady breeze, the Denver makes it’s way into the list of cities that are beautiful at night.

Looking into it, I find that ‘Snap’ is not as thrilling to me as ‘Crunk’ is. Don’t get me wrong, snap ain’t crap rap, it’s just not moving my white butt like Crunk does. YeAH!

Thinking things better left unsaid. Dealing with issues beyond blog territory. Not bad really, just stuff I’ve chosen to keep off of the webbernets. That’s as far in as this gets. You have to draw a line somewhere and I really don’t feel like even dancing on it. So I’ll just tell you where it is and stay safely over on this side. Relationships (starting to sound familiar, have I mentioned this before?) save the day I get engaged and the day I get married (not sure about after though, permanence changes things, eh?) Work, I don’t have a problem generalizing about it, maybe some anecdotal stuff, but I just feel like I don’t need to air that laundry to the world, and I think it’s safer that way too. Drama, I have enough of it without dragging everyone into it (and I don’t think I have much, by the way, just more than I like), but that’s part of relationships and work isn’t it? oh well, I thought it warranted a mention.

I’m staring at the pocket rhyming dictionary on my desk. It’s that time.

Welcome to Rose Medical Center, where everything we see is everything you hate.

- So it feels like I haven’t blogged in ages, and I guess that’s the feeling you get when you blog regularly for a bit and then quit. I also have to admit that I’ve been a most atrocious blog reader of late and haven’t even kept up on my so-called-regulars, I guess this is where I break down and get me an RSS aggregator and just do it that way, but I’m too lazy to go find one that I like (I’ve tried a few but they were early ones and I don’t really know what the field looks like right now, so suggestions are welcome) but I guess that’s my way of being apologetic. I really do feel bad when I sit here and write away without reading your things, it makes me feel as though I’m not really contributing to the community as well as I could be. So there’s that.

– I like my new store, it is so stress-free that I’ve been stressed about the lack of stress and had to tell my boss that I felt like I was standing around when there were probably things I could be doing, that was pretty weird, but he said what I was thinking which is that I will see those things soon enough and not to worry about it, so he’s on the same page which rules, and I’ve learned that I will be able to have my requested regular schedule which really rules. God is Good (Whitney: All the time, eh?).

– I’m sitting here typing like a madman. I don’t usually write this fast, but I feel like I have a lot to say tonight so I’m cruising along. It makes me think of those people who’s blogs I read (when I’m being a good blogger) who have long entries on a regular basis. I usually wonder how they have the time to write that much, and bemoan that I don’t have that time. Now that I’m sitting here doing it though, I think I see a way. I just need to learn to get my stubbornness out of the way and let it flow, it seems to come faster that way. End Aside.

– I have felt lately that my relationships are changing, and that I am growing closer to some friends while growing farther away from others. (I hate the second part. HATE HATE HATE, and I know that’s a strong word, so I’ll say it again, I hate that I’m drifting from you.) I do however love the part where I’m growing closer to other friends. There is just one problem with it. I find that I have so many people around me that I cannot keep up with them all (and in a couple instances this has contributed to the drift). It leaves me with a really crappy dilemma. I feel like I have to choose who I want to invest in more and who I am going to invest in less. How do you consciously CHOOSE to invest less in a person? That’s a shitty deal. I really don’t know what to do about it. (Notice how I’ve gone from ‘crappy’ to ’shitty’ – Erin, maybe I should switch to ‘poopy’.) And here we go with stream of consciousness…

– How about that word, eh? Shit. I dunno, I’m just thinking about what really constitutes swearing anymore, and how/why we do it. I mean you hear the F-bomb so often these days, it has lost it’s edge. Have we reached the limits of the shock? What comes next? Are we all out of swear words? Etc, etc, yadda yadda, just-thinking-out-loud.

words…

In the randomness of the night breeze
I catch a glimpse of future
passing fire
and the depth of it startles me
and I delve into my mind
and I dredge up emotion
and I live for these moments
when the fractal makes sense
and is seen for the first time
and the randomness
degrades
and it becomes a rhyme
and it gains rhythym
and it keeps time
all in my mind
all is benign

There are a grand total of four black guys here.

If you don’t know how bad the DJ at the local club is, then I recommend that you don’t ever listen to Mix Master Mike, or go see him spin, it was about the sickest thing I’ve ever seen.

More on this later, I’ma go shower all of this smoke off, and then go to bed.

To all of you who complained in the cold…

Statement as of 5:08 PM MDT on June 14, 2006

… Record high temperature set for June 14th… updated
… Earliest 100 degree day in Denver weather history…

At 234 PM today the temperature at Denver International Airport
reached 101 degrees. The temperature continued to climb and reached
102 degrees at 427 PM. This is a new record high temperature for
this date. The old record of 99 degrees was set in 1994.

The 102 degree temperature is also the earliest that the 100
degree mark has been reached in any year. The previous first 100
degree day of the year occurred on June 23rd 1954 when the
temperature hit 102 degrees.

In addition… this is only the 7th 100 degree day that has ever
occurred in June.

Denvers weather records began in 1872.

Is it hot enough now?

That phone call and it’s timing can lead me to only one conclusion…

… that God has a really weird sense of humor.

I love Apple, I love Architecture, and I especially love Frank Lloyd Wright, so this article made me freak out, it’s pretty good too. If you’re a geek like me that is.

I had a pretty snazzy first day at my new store today, I believe I could love it there. (and for those of you in the know, I’ll throw in the essential GAH!)

My good friend Chris has a new food blog, you should go check it out, she’s got a good concept.

It’s a Microwave Jesus! – ready in three minutes.

Peace Officer Sez: “The problem is that that sign over there says the hours of this park are till dusk.”

– So I guess we broke the rules. Go figure, a bunch of church-going, frisbee-throwing, twenty-somethings (AND their pastor) got tossed out of a park. But we sure had fun playing Ultimate Frisbee….
