(sorry)

since work is
eating my soul
and
making me question life in general
post will be
- sad
and
- infrequent

and keep thinking of
things to write about
but
i just forget them
and space out.

sigh.

.on a sunday.

Still down
blue
but
Inky helps.

Anywho,
it's stories like this
and that maple syrup smell
(which is gross, I hate maple syrup - viva la buttermilk smell!)
that make me smitten with
the
randomness of this city.

(image from Engrish Funny BUT is this actually around the corner from me and I have chuckled at it every time I walk by)

9.23.2008

.’bout four in the morning.

Right now I'm
not depressed but
melancholy
like this city at night
will swallow me
whole.

I guess I had too much
time to think
in the cab home
(seriously, from 76th and Riverside Drive you should not have to go through the Lincoln Center, Times Square, Herald Square & Bleecker Street - you sir, cabbie, I hate you)

9.18.2008

.what i'm doing now.

Dude,
I don't even know where
I've been
for the last week.

(wanders off in a nightgown)

.do you hear.

"Come on grand-pop, finish your meal so we can take you back to the home and the kids can get back to whatever they do in their rooms all day"
She gets press and McCain gets a boost in polls - why? She's a moron, she has stupid children and is fucking nuts. The McCain is just stupid or genius...I really can't tell.

This is hilarious commentary and probably the best I've heard.

.some of these, baby.

The first ad was stupid
but i find this just
non-sequitur
(a running theme in my life recently)
to work and be amusing.

Also,
I was on the train
and the only people in my car
were morbidly obese
(like taking up 3 seats)
and people picking their
noses.
I wish I was
exaggerating.
no.
no.
no.

.your baby.

Seriously?
Who thought this was good idea?
Hey, Bob, let's destroy the world today!
Okay Jim!

And this is why God hates us.

I took advanced biology instead of physics in high school and I'm still slightly confused about this and what it really means. It just seems like a multi-billion dollar waste of time.

9.09.2008

.you got to find.


Seriously, I won't even mention it's name.
Fuck that woman.
Fuck her.
Fuck everyone seduced by her.
You look her in the eye and you'll turn into Karl Rove's panties (the period kind!)

(for this image, you're welcome!)

.half puerto rican chinese.

I am a piece of
political shit
(down Andre Serranos! down!).

it's tuesday
and i didn't vote.

I am such a schlub.

I went for a walk Sunday (a great walk!)
and was
bombarded
by flyers and such
but Paul Newell was the only one
I came across
who was actually standing there
shaking hands,
explaining policies
and generally being a nice guy
(although, in an awful suit! maybe his new job will pay him more).

I wanted to vote for you Paul!

But I thought,
hey, i'll vote after work.

Did I?
No, I left work at 6, went to a 6:30 lecture,
got out late
(apparently I have no sense of time today)
and farted around with some people from school
until I got home too late!

I'm so sorry Paul!
*cries*
PAAAAUUUULLLLLLLL

***************************************

UPDATED: PAUL!!!! I'm sorry! But 25% - that's pretty good for a 33 year old against one of the most powerful men in the state! You go little guy!

And Kevin Powell - I want to think you're cool as you relate to the good days of television in my very young youth, but I still find you annoying. You'll never outrun that argument with Julie, will you? I still think it's a classic moment in TV history. Sorry Kevin, I'll never see past that.

.for your pleasure.

Astroland
and
Rent
closed this weekend.

I'm not a Renthead
nor did I really like Astroland
(come on! it was lame and dirty and the employees were creepy! jump off the band wagon!)
nor have I been in New York long
but I felt like
a little piece of New York
died.

.she stands right there.

i thought today would be
awesome
or
different,
but it wasn't!

Why?

When I walked outside this morning,
there was
Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie
filming
(as y'all know)
Flight of the Conchords
one of the funniest shows....
ever!

I couldn't stop and watch,
I was late for work.
I should have said,
"Fuck, this is going to be a shit day at work, I'm gonna go be friends with some New Zealanders"
(and they have been
everywhere in my
neighborhood
everywhere!)

but I went to work.
It sucked.
Damnit!

.bank rolled up on your sock.

....The scene from my mail box yesterday (Friday, the 5th)

Apparently, if you had
no idea
and lived in the 64th congressional district,
Sheldon "Shelly" Silver is (oddly) facing
opposition
for his seat as assemblymen.

He is also the Speaker of the Assembly in Albany.

I don't really
know
what he's done for the area
lately.

I just know
every
single
day
my mailbox is
flooded with election material.

9.02.2008

.in front of the east coast.

Again, I don't know if this is talked about as much in the rest of the world but the number one topic conversation from Friday, through the weekend and into today is VPILF. The fact that everyone is calling her VPILF just shows the complete lack of respect she is receiving from the country. On that note....

RE: VP Pick
Dear John McCain,

Thanks! (you fucking hypocrite)

Love (Love, love, LOVE),
The Democrats

PS: Nancy and Howard say hi but you'll see them all over the place soon anyway.
What is this magical piece of heaven you have sent us in the form of a governor from the largest state in the country? Seriously, what the fuck is she and what planet did she come from? She's like, Ted Nugent's dream girl (okay, maybe she's like 20 years too old but still). I don't need to talk about how she doesn't know what the Vice President does, how she's hiding her teenage daughters first child as her own (OMG! maybe her daughter and Jamie Lynn Spears could be BFFs), how she has less experience than my left butt check, how she has the most annoying voice ever, how she's being used like a cheap whore to win the female vote (nothing says I relate to most women like hunting and letting your teenage daughter get pregnant - I don't understand the reasoning that we should applaud these people for not getting abortions, pro-choicers don't advocate having abortions all over the place just because. And if her daughter did have an abortion it's none of our god damn business!), is living in a state who's addition to the country is still questioned - I mean, Hawii is like, pretty, and looks like an evil teacher one would have in 1st grade. I won't talk about those things, everyone else has already.

To be honest, I would be shocked if she was still the pick by the end of this month. I have feeling, the "I need to stay and keep care of my family" excuse might come into play but the bitch seems more ambitious than Hillary Clinton, so we'll see.

I'm also enjoying Bristol Palin's baby's daddy's MySpace recap found here and here. What a catch! He seems like the type who has fathered half the children in the county.

UPDATED: This is seriously all anyone is New York is talking about. Walking to lunch I did not hear a single conversations (sans the mystery ones in Spanish) that wasn't about this. And not in a Dark Knight sort of way but in a smug, fuck yeah the Democrats have it made sort of way. Even a photographer who is having his book published by us and is traveling around the world only wanted to talk about this! We've all come to the conclusion that abstinence education has the reverse effect. Telling teenagers to ignore their insanely strong instincts is dumb. Sex and hormones and the word "no". Need I say more?


OTHER FUN NEWS:
- Giggle, he's so cute!
- This indicates how bored people can get and easily they can get amused.
- Even the fashion world is following the amount of the dollar - one day it won't cost an entire year's salary to visit my favorite city.
- What a great non-NY Post headline.
- .Also in fashion, look how freaking awesome Todd Oldham's Old Navy collection is. Fuck Top Design, give me these clothes
- I mean, who thought this would be a bad idea? Oh, EVERYONE!
