happy new year • tacos (again) • the end of the home movies marathon and once again, the final scene with brendon’s camera getting trashed hits me right here • the return of “Birthday” and my rational desire to kill my upstairs neighbor and my much less rational desire to travel back in time and kill the Beatles before they can record the song • a turn to Family Guy episodes • a new year’s day brunch to die for • Pan’s Labyrinth • intense return to FFXII, big fat nerd • the first run (2mi) of the new year • some strange emails • some wacked out weather (gracias, El Niño)

I am now a big boy: I have wine glasses, and champagne glasses. So come on over for a mimosa or something. No more serving them in my rocks glasses, which undoubtedly clouded the character of the $5 bottle of Pinot Noir I drank the other day. It just wasn’t able to breathe properly, right?

Another excellent weekend:

my first full Morseland night shift in a little bit • a visit from two kitties • a craptacular movie (Blood Diamond) • lots and lots of naps • some excellent presents • driving around looking for Christmas lights, stumbling on a well-ogranized luminaried neighborhood • making greenwichletterpress.com go live • a decent movie (Night at a Museum) • terrible service at a Chinese restaurant • a reluctant but ultimately successful Morseland Christmas party with friends • ups & downs at Shut the Box • Scrooged, Uncle Buck and of course, tons of Home Movies • two very delicious breakfasts — one at Annie’s and one homemade

…hmm. I like writing these bullet-pointed summaries. Allows me to list out events but still encode them to fulfill my need for vagary. Still, it feels like those lists high school kids write out for their senior pages in yearbooks or in their little bio sections for the school plays. All their crappy, meaningless memories (wow, that’s harsh!) and inside jokes. I won’t let that deter me, however. I shall keep on condensing my life into short paragraphs of bullet points, high school kids be damned!

it was all about:

more tacos & cartoons • phil & tina & veronica in from out of town • hanging with everyone at prairie moon • fixing an unfixable foible upon which i was fixated (and thus finishing a freelance fling) • the best early hanukkah present ever • getting towed from a snow route without any snow • the most frustrating football game ever • the longest brunch shift ever • dave d. doing me a solid • tardies • further and deeper explorations into the depths of my sleepy mind • other really…really…good stuff that i ain’t even going to attempt to write about. not to you lot, anyway.
