i love futurama. i know you all love futurama too. so check out the turanga pages, a um, tribute (?) to our favorite cyclops (and amy too). pat, i know you’ll love this site. 😉

this weekend i helped eric paint his new room. it was awesome except that the last 5 people that painted didn’t bother to tape off the moulding, so when i pulled my carefully placed tape off (after i had scored it and everything), the new paint still looked messy since apparently no one else gave a shit. argh.

monday was andrew’s birthday and he had a bbq in the afternoon. it was soooo yummy and people brought food and bourbon slush too (sgmt and stef are, perhaps, gods).

yesterday i helped eric move (almost) the last of his stuff up to lincoln square then we ate what will probably be our last cross-rhodes meal in a long time and promptly passed out.

today is also the one-year mark for eric and i. tonight: cooking and ‘the punisher’, which i’ve heard is pretty good despite it’s craptastic trailer. we are so romantic, eh? 🙂

engadget calls our attention to the stealth surfer, a usb device that will allow you to hide your web surfing activities…and get this – take the evidence with you. now horny teenagers everywhere will be delightedly burning these little guys in effigy, middle fingers in the air.

well, almost nothing. i laid around a lot and watched sex & the city and band of brothers. i ran a ton of errands while i had command of eric’s car. saturday night i hung out with my high school friends that live in chicago. conrad, brandon and i went to pat and jessie’s apt. and watched all of aqua teen hunger force. turns out that brandon lives all of 2 blocks away from me. 2 BLOCKS! we felt like total asses for not spending more time together over the past, uh…6 months…heh heh…heh… but we had a good sci-fi catch up (this is where we go on for hours talking about our favorite sci-fi shows and bask in our mutual nerdiness). he has an EARRING!! wtf?

I’ve got something in my front pocket for you
Why don’t you reach down in my pocket and see what it is
Then grab onto it, it’s just for you
Give a little squeeze and say, “How do you do?”
There’s something in my front pocket
There’s something in my front pocket
There’s something in my front pocket…
