Professional Abdication: 10.10

29 October 2010

TRICK OR TREAT

I like Coffee Stout and Reese Pieces...please prepare these things for my Sunday consumption.

To catch those of you up, who don't get the pleasure of looking at me day after day and those of you who are incredibly unobservant...I wear the same pants everyday (well, one of two pairs, same Fink brand and cut...one grey plaid one brown plaid). Long of it short is, I'm obviously wearing them down considering I've been in this cycle for at least 2+ years now. All of this stems from my desire to eventually find the perfect 'cartoon character' apparel...meaning wearing the same thing everyday, but not dirty...I'd in theory have x amount of the same shirt, x amount of the same pants and so on. Any way, after countless searches coming up empty handed, I've come to the conclusion that the pants I wear are no longer made or in stock anywhere....so, I need a recommendation from any of the 3 people who actually leave comments (or newbies...speak up)...

Can anyone recommend a plaid pants brand they've grown to love....comfortable, not skinny...again...NOT SKINNY JEANSish, but not overly baggy, not retarded expensive and somewhat dapper. And no I'm not going to a store to try shit on...I prefer my anonymous online ordering thank you.

Good work Coolfire and many thanks for a good evening of good fun.

NOT A WRECKED BIKE

Good ol' Mr. J done did wrecked his bike and done wrecked it good...so much that the frame is bent in at least 3 visible places. Luckily he has ninety seven (or 4) frames lying around his garage...so we built him this bike. Though I have a sneaking suspicion that he'll be adding a brake.

I DO...

Well...as of yesterday, Mr. P is in the Ukraine for 20 or so days, and I've given him the simple task of finding me my Ukrainian bride to be. Mom, if by chance you've recently acquired a computer, got internet access, figured out how to turn it on and magically found my blog...well then, you'd better set one more place at the table for Thanksgiving, cause we're gonna have a new bride to be thankful for...oh and maybe some of them there nonexistent grandkids you're apparently so fond of.

Mr. P good luck in your endeavors. And make sure she doesn't like expensive things and has also developed an eerie love of frozen pizzas...she should also probably smell pleasant as well, oh yep and probably not like to talk much...and maybe be excellent at cooking hot dogs for me and my friends. And this one is pretty important...must also be up for being married by Elvis in the back of a pink Cadillac convertible at a drive through chapel in Vegas...

MAGNOLIA

I've held off watching this for a long time now...and not for any sensible reasons. I didn't like the title of the movie or the DVD cover and it made me think of Steel Magnolias...which I know and knew is not the same movie, that's just how my mind works. Anyway...I finally watched it last night and its really really good. So if for whatever reason you haven't seen it yet, watch it.

I picked up the little lady Saturday morning...she is f'n rad. Rad and quite versed in providing endless amusement. I forgot my camera at work this weekend, so I'll throw up some shots soon...you know, because the internet needs more cat pictures posted on it. And thanks to Mr. D & Ms. A for her first pair of nunchucks.

NO...YOU'RE OBSESSED AND HORRIBLE AT MANAGING MONEY

So the long of it short is I found out there is a difference between comprehensive and collision when it comes to an insurance deductible. One being much cheaper than the other when it comes to fixing the hood of one's Rabbit. Having already assumed I was shelling out $500 out of pocket, the money was spent in my mind. Now that I've talked to my insurance company...it looks like that $500 is now only $100...so as any logical person would do, I bought this David Fullarton piece from a San Francisco gallery to make up the difference. Whatever...you're dumb.

WANNA PET A CAT?

Yeah, me neither...but I'll have one tomorrow. And I'm gonna pet it real good...stop by tomorrow and meet [MS. FU] if you like and bring me a refreshing beverage of sorts.

KPNT 105.7 the Point is looking for a Digital Brand Manager (fancy words for a capable web learned fella, webmaster and what have you)...and there may or may not be a $5.00 KFC gift certificate in it for me if I pass on the hired referred candidate. So if you're looking for a job...and you're not a scumbag...let me know and I can put you in touch with the friendly Mr. M...

HELVETICA

I watched the Helvetica documentary last night...and let me say, I'm a self-proclaimed type junkie, not to mention in the industry...and still not so much a good movie. I respect the font, I like design, art and typography films...just not this one, not gonna lie, its kinda mundane and repetitive.

BELLY OR STERNUM

I'm scheduled for a tattoo appointment in a week from today and I'm undecided at this point on which gap to fill next. I'll be filling in my upper right chest with a small piece, dots and stars, but we'll also be starting another piece. I've got a space on my sternum to fill as well as a belly of love to go big. Two different spaces, two different pieces...and don't say both. So I implore you for your magical wisdom internet comments...belly or sternum?
