self-titled: ^_^

rather than write about the past week or so, i think i'll just pretend they didn't happen. it's much easier for me that way. in brief, i don't know that anything extraordinary happened, well except for new year's eve. a wholly uneventful, embarrassingly so even, new year's except for one thing. katie called me, and we observed the new year's arrival together. however, i was five seconds ahead of her. normally, this is no big deal, you're on the phone and you hear a second lag or so on the tv. but when counting down to the new year, it became very weird and terribly difficult to fully comprehend. We were experiencing the exact same moment in time, i just did it first. this puts a horrible strain on our relationship though, and i'm not sure how this will play out when she returns on sunday, i expect really weird matter problems due to the tear we created on the space-time continuum. i fear when our two planes of existance come close to one another bad bad shit will happen, certainly not limited to the creation of a matterless void that sucks in greater new england.

in other news, you're looking at a very rough rig up of a slightly different self-titled. i have lots of work to do so it doesn't suck quite as hard, but in brief, doing it blog style is just loads easier for me. yes, the cost is that of my eternal soul, but hey, no more fumbling around with copy/paste and rename, right?

the work week was very nicely broken up with new year's falling on wednesday. i played poker wednesday night and after 5 or 6 hours i was only down chinese food, which is a wonderful switch up.

after work today, i dropped off my dry cleaning because there's supposed to be a mad snowstorm that was postponed due to rain. while i was out i went to star market, i was very hungry and need food.

now whoever says you shouldn't go shopping while hungry is clearly retarded. if i went shopping while not hungry, i'd buy nothing at all. today, while i was famished, chances are if i've eaten it before and liked it and it wasn't uncooked meat, i bought it or came really close to doing so. the bill came to like $160 before my star rewards nonsense and i just really went to town. it was a blast, i just went up and down every aisle while talking to myself and to the food.

here's an excert:
"hmm, need bread. bread bread bread. all of you suck. ooh, canadian white, oh yeah, bitch, you're the bread for me. oh wow, english muffins. wow, definitely, come here guys. you want company or should i just get one, ok, i'll just get you" at this point i looked across the aisle and saw the 8 pack of english muffins, i was previously talking with the 4 pack, "oh wow, nevermind. you, get the hell out of my cart" < "whoa. whhhhoaaaa. hold on. is that an egg? wow. i'm speechless. whoa." and then i picked up the jumbo english muffins with a pictre of an english muffin with an egg on it. i was impressed.

when i got to the checkout line it was great, i was pulling stuff out of my cart (i seriously almost ran out of cart space) and i'd see something and wonder what the hell i was thinking, for instance: little pretzel bits with cheese inside, and yogurt.

my shopping escapades done and this pos at least functional, it is time to celebrate the tostitos fiesta bowl with some velveeta cheese, newman's salsa, and of course, velveeta chips.

cheers.

also, watching nutty professor, and i have two problems. 1.) fat eddie murphy's feet are too big to even been cartoony. 2.) the chick would never fall for that big fat piece of lard.
