nothing compares 2 chrisafer
Mmmmkay...main template fixed up to look somewhat like it used to, with brand new pull-down linkages for the ever-growing archives (since July '01, baby, and I'd have more than that if it wasn't for a tragic server accident that wiped out archives from '98). Cleaned up the blogroll a bit to remove dead links, expired blogs, or blogs not updated in months.
My right fist hurts today. Perhaps it was the fight with the oven yesterday. The frikkin' pilot light clicker thingy goes off by itself, especially when I'm right about to go to work. The sound ( ~tik...~tik...~tik...) drives me into a rage, and it won't turn off. Hitting the oven makes me feel better, but makes my hand hurt.
Everything in that frikkin' house needs adjustments, fixing, or otherwise supporting, since nothing ever gets fixed when it breaks. The roomate has been incredibly lazy for the past month or so, and I feel like much, if not all, of the cleaning and tidying has been entirely on my shoulders. Between that and the frikkin' crack bullshit going on out on the street, I am going to revitalize my search for my own, quieter place with furnishings and appliances that work, starting this weekend.
Yes, I am venting and bitching. I have also not been sleeping well, probably due to the weather changes, which have been nice. Now everyone at work has been bitching about how cold it is at work. For the first time in months I am NOT sweating, and my ass is no longer enflamed. But I suppose we must maintain a minimum 90-degrees to maintain body temperature. Howabout a frikkin' sweater? I'm burning up here in my polo shirt.
But yesterday was the first time in weeks that I had a real, full-energy workout at the gym. It felt great, and the sleep I got the night before had me in a fairly good mood yesterday. Workout and run tonight, and rugby practice tomorrow
Ode to Chrisafer, who has been gone from UMD for some time now:
It's been 7 hours and 16 days,
Since they took Chrisafer away.
I go out every night, and sleep all day.
Since they took Chrisafer away.
Since she been gone I can do whomever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner inna Union restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
`Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

Yeah, somebody else mentioned that too...it looks fine on MY Firefox, albeit the jimbo.info banner is cut off a little.

It's totally dysfunctional on the latest Safari (Mac OS X) - no graphics, no sidebars, just a bunch of text...

Sounds like the oven is winning your fights, maybe you should kill it.

Will you sing 'Black Boys on Mopeds' next?

There is a Discovery, TLC or HGTV show in there somewhere... home improvements using physical violence. I smell a pilot. How to kick your walls out. Appliance repair using only your fist.

No Chrisafer. Next on deck for my series of Sinead covers in your honor is, "I Am Stretched On Your Grave."

The stove will always win- trust me, I know. And don't piss the fridge off, ohmigod was that ever a mistake.

The fridge already has the upper hand. If you open the fridge door while the microwave is running, all the power goes out in the house.

Oh wow. The Mighty (hot) Jimbo will be like two miles from my house next week.

Oh tell me about roommate laziness.
My roommate is in charge of the bathrooms, 2 rooms (actually 1.5 rooms, no, 1 room and a closet with a toilet) and she rarely maintains them. Me? I'm in charge of the rest of the house. Then again I am the landlord.
Right now there are just two 1/2 used rolls of TP in the house. She was supposed to get more toilet paper 2 days ago. The last bunch I got. The cleaning of the mold off the tub, I did (ok I just sprayed tilex, but dang it it's her job!).
Thanks for letting me vent.
Oh, yeah, don't piss off the fridge. It will get it's revenge when you're not looking.
