I was woken up this morning

| June 14, 2008

…by the back of Z’s head crashing into my eyebrow. It was very strange, like being woken up by a punch to the face (or the eye/forehead). He was fine, laughing and playing and spazzing around…but I was not. OWCH.

my two favorite people

| June 13, 2008

Like duh, you know who they are. You were thinking maybe Trinity & Neo? Turner and Hooch? Clark and Gable? Noo! It’s my awesome wife and the gallon-sized ball of love, drool & clawing fingers that is my son. + some photoshopping. Because although the weather up here may suck, it’s not that weird. Drawing [...]

two good songs

| June 12, 2008

…that came up yesterday in the car on my mp3 player: Tegan & Sara – I Hear Noises Arctic Monkey – Florescent Adolescent Both of these songs I love, for completely different reasons. I Hear Noises is really kind of cheesy lyrically, but I think it works really well sonic-ly as part of the whole [...]

complex trait evolution: recorded and replayed

| June 11, 2008

Here is some very cool science news. The fact that they were able to reproduce the mutation again, but only under certain circumstances…awesome!  This is going to be even cooler once they figure out what chain of changes led to the mutation.  Makes me wish I had stuck with that childhood dream of mine to [...]

weekly links

| June 10, 2008

Talk about dreams coming true. I’m not a fan of Boston at all, but I can at least be really happy for this guy. A British Band gets some use out of all those CCTV cameras everywhere… All three candidates speeches on Obama’s successful nomination. It is worth listening to all 3 to get an [...]

another Obama video

| June 8, 2008

Quite worth listening to at least (no I didn’t watch it…I just ran it while doing other things….shitting actually *cough* and listened to it). He’s definitely a great speaker, and he wasn’t even using his “preacher voice” that so many comment on. [youtube = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnhmByYxEIo]

yet another house

| June 7, 2008

Soooo…we’re putting in our 3rd or 4th attempt/offer this weekend. The other times we’ve been either too low/insulting or, beat by mere moments by multiple other offers (so, badly beat). We’re hoping this time things will be different but, you know. Hopes and wishes and fishes and what not. The place is very groovy…it has [...]

06/05/08 – week in fast forward

| June 5, 2008

OK, so I saw a blurb somewhere from one of the conventions that the Death of the New Gods did happen and “all will be revealed” about this giant new retcon. I’m curious at least, but not much more than that. Rann-Thanagar Holy War 2 – This was surprisingly good – much like …Journey into [...]

the Clinton thing

| June 5, 2008

is really annoying me. Talk about having an excess of unnecessary testicles. Dude. The race is over. You lost. Like, two days ago. But, just because you won’t say “I lost” that somehow means you didn’t, yet. SERIOUSLY? Talk about an attention whore. Her website (no I’m not going to link it!) has a little [...]

Geek Heirarchy

| June 4, 2008

I found this over at Penny Arcade yesterday. Ok, actually I sent Jen a link to that post and the day’s comic, because I know how much she hates Laurell K. Hamilton and she found it in the original post. So, yeah. Funny. But I disagree with the geekiness of anime levels. They should basically [...]
