Weekend Plans

Mar 12, 2010 10:28am

What am I gonna do for my first weekend in a while WITHOUT a club on one arm? Grocery shopping (natch) Laundry (ditto) Attempt to halfassed clean my house since my parents are visiting next weekend Watch “The Jerk” which I just bought on DVD (loved that movie since I was WAY too young...

Caution: Rant ahead

Mar 11, 2010 10:22am

Kim says I’m funnier when I’m mad. If so, I’m about to get goddamn hysterical up in this bitch. Get your helmets on. A Mississippi school canceled its prom after a gay girl petitioned their policy that prohibited her from bringing a female date. Okay, TB. Deep breaths. In…out. Count to ten. ...

Back from the doc

Mar 10, 2010 7:22am

Well, it didn’t take long at all. A resident came in and cut my cast off and let me wash my hands (hoo-fucking-ray!!), the doc came in and looked at it, and a nurse took my stitches out and put me in a neoprene-and-velcro splint. Bingo-bango, you’re free to go,...

Hands Off

Mar 9, 2010 9:39am

Assuming that all goes well, this is the last day of my left hand’s vacation. (Before you go there, I’m right handed. So get your mind out of the gutter…so there’s more room for mine.) My appointment with the super-duper hand doc is tomorrow at 8:15 – as per Dys’s standing suggestion,...

Uphill Again

Mar 8, 2010 12:08pm

For various reasons, including but not limited to a) Boy being restless b) Boy’s friends ditching him c) Me being bored out of my skull d) Dys needing us both the hell out of her space for a few I ended up taking Boy to the park yesterday afternoon. As one might expect on the first...

Monday Music

Mar 8, 2010 5:36am

I had this one pop into my head this weekend and I got a mild internal chuckle out of it, so why not? I get my cast off Wednesday morning, so hopefully this is the last Monday in which I can’t fit both hands into my pockets. Alanis Morrissette, “Hand In My...

It’s a Major Award!

Mar 5, 2010 7:01am

Sadly, it’s not a leg lamp. Damn. That would look so awesome in my Man Cave with my amplifiers… Oregon Sunshine tagged me with an award. I don’t think I’ve ever been called “beautiful” before. How should I react? I’ll ponder… In the meantime, I’m supposed to tell everybody seven things about...

More Guy Talk

Mar 5, 2010 5:57am

I had a great time on last night’s radio show. I barely had time to launch into a pointless and improvised opening monologue before my man Bad Pants (the blogger formerly known as Dead Charming) was on the line with me, and we spent a great hour talking about sci-fi/fantasy...

Radio Show Tonight!

Mar 4, 2010 5:48am

Sing it with me, folks: “It’s been a long time since I rock and rolled…“ RADIO SHOW TIME! I had that last-minute cancellation last month, so this will be my first one since the first week of January. And I’m rarin’ to go. The big button above (or this link) will take you...

A bad example

Mar 3, 2010 7:33am

I’ve been helping my son study social studies lately, explaining to him what the branches of government do, what taxes are, and so forth. I sincerely hope I never have to explain Senator Jim Bunning (R-KY) to a fourth-grader. I’ll let Jon Stewart comment further; he does it better than I would. ...
