After learning of the The Expendables movie that is releasing this week, the first thing I thought of was OMan. If you know OMan and do not know what The Expendables is, you must watch this and you will understand:
Notable quote:
“If testosterone could mate… with an explosion… this would be the offspring.”
So it was to much of my surprise that when we were purchasing tickets to the midnight showing, OMan said:
But after a few more emails saying how it would be a crime not to see this movie with OMan…
I took the day off since I felt like I needed a good day of rest (particularly since my cough is still lurking around). I was planning on sleeping in and perhaps being productive and getting my car maintenanced, but I opted to just turn off the “maintenance required” light so I could ignore it easier (it’s kind of pointless anyways). I did, however, get some Round Rock donut holes, bought more flags for ultimate, ordered new checks, and sent off some mail. Now I am just bumming at the house.
I have had an unfortunate run of WwF games and have a longer losing streak (across different people) than I would like… I think I’m playing too haphazardly… and I need to learn more words with an abundance of i’s in them… I hate i’s.
Itching a little to try to do a small video related project with my camera, but feeling rather uninspired right now…
The first year I roomed with Sam, he posted this on his Xanga:
[random though of the moment] it is 6:30 am, sun is not up. looks at Oliver.
thinks: hhmm… too bad Oliver is not a girl , or else we could go see the sun
rise together. two guys watching the sun rise is just gay. [/ random thought]
Apparently Sam used to watch me sleep and wish I was a girl so he could share a sunrise with me.
Ryan showed me this site where you basically chat with random people. I’ll just leave you with this:
I also explained to a Chinese boy what asl meant then proceeded to say I was from the UK and he should mind the gap.
“Highway run into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You’re on my mind
Restless hearts sleep alone tonight
Sending all my love along the wire” – Journey
My Batman keychain has finally lost both of its legs. Now he looks almost offensive… perhaps it is time to replace him with my LEGO Yoda keychain.
“In a field of yellow flowers,
underneath the sun,
bluest eyes that spark with lightning,
boy with shoes undone.
He is young, so full of hope,
reveling in tiny dreams,
filling up, his arms with flowers,
right for giving any queen.
Running to her beaming bright,
while cradling his prize.
A flickering of yellow light,
within his mother’s eyes.
She holds them to her heart,
keeping them where they’ll be safe,
clasped within her very marrow,
dandelions in a vase.” – Five Iron Frenzy
I spent the end of tonight watching 80′s music videos. Man, that was pretty awesome. Here’re a few:
I’m pretty much over the majority of my cold now, but I still have a lingering cough. I’ve found that when I’m sick, I seem to have a weird “internal smell” that’s akin to burnt electronics. It’s a bit strange and not very pleasant to say the least. I hope I don’t actually smell that way…
I was also sent this video of Sam, which I find pretty hilarious.
I believe that night, I had to drive downtown at almost 2AM to pick his drunk butt up.
“And now you’ve given me, given me
Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams,
Feel like I could run away, run away
From this empty heeeaaaaart…” – Johnny Hates Jazz
I took the picture at the end of this post while I was at work listening to people talk. The hoodie makes me feel like I’m secret. Safe. Haha, just kidding, but I felt like I had to write a blog post so I could use it, so… here it is.
Apparently Apple released their iPad, which I’ve known was being worked on for quite some time from a previous employer. Took long enough! I’m mostly disappointed there’s no multitasking. A little anti-climactic as it’s basically just a big iPod Touch that you can add 3G to for an extra $130. I’d categorize it as “neat toy” but not “must have gadget.” At least, not yet.
My little sister told me to get the Scramble 2 iPhone/iPod app, which I did. I have discovered that I am not very good at it and she mocks me with her high score that is significantly higher than mine.
“Tell me lies
Tell me sweet, little lies
(Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies)
Oh, no, no you can’t disguise
(You can’t disguise, no you can’t disguise)
Tell me lies
Tell me sweet little lies” – Fleetwood Mac
I watched Twilight yesterday with Heather, Ryan, and Steph… which was, ya know… Twilight. But, on the bright side, it allowed me to really connect with my little sister…
owiber: go to sleep little face! owiaba: go to sleep, old man! owiber: you have to go learn multiplication tomorrow! owiaba: no! owiaba: too soon! owiber: ONE POUND OF GLITTER owiber: http://www.capaper.com/product/6410 owiaba: SIGH owiaba: one pound of RAINBOW owiber: ~*sparkle*~ owiber: maybe I will dump it on your bed owiaba: no owiaba: I will kill you owiber: owiber: but you’ll ~*sparkle*~ for the rest of your life owiaba: noooooo owiber: just like Edward owiaba: yayz. owiber: GOOD NIGHT, FACE owiaba: BYE BROTHER
I feel like this week has been hectic. Some days you feel always busy and then you think back on what you did and you have no idea… I think that was a lot of this week. Tomorrow’s Friday, though!
After a bit of conversation with coworkers, I picked up lamely-named Scrabble rip-off, Words with Friends and have been playing it somewhat heavily the entire week. If you happen to pick it up, you can guess what my username is. I’ve only finished a few games, including some that make Brook look like he’s a glutton for punishment.
I think I’ve got a bit of shin splint action going on, but I’m looking forward to ultimate this weekend anyways. We should have a pretty decent crew out this time, I’m hoping.
