HOT!

Saturday, May 31st, 2003

Hub and the three year old went on an excursion today, so I took the 1.5 year old to the Farmer’s Market around the corner. I got a bunch of good stuff even though we got there late: cucumbers, summer and acorn squash, tamales, tomatoes, and peaches. Only problem is that it was [...]

Oh, Chit. Ty.

Friday, May 30th, 2003

Dangit, the Drafthouse is showing Chitty Chitty Bang Bang tomorrow for its matinee. Too bad the kids asked to watch it this afternoon. They’ll be too burned out on it to go see it tomorrow. Well, that’s ok - I promised Jo I’d take her to see Finding Nemo; maybe we’ll do [...]

Sigh

I miss my kitty. I still haven’t brought myself to buy him a stone.
I just miss him.

Oddly poetic spam

“Blonde teen lesbians mfohrarogcoi”
I could but smile at her
Since you plan for both, there will be
both.
That is what matters
I felt even worse now, for I saw again the face of
Sidroc as he drew close to me in the bustling keep yard when
I asked him to take
I stared him full in the face, and [...]

Quiltmania

Wednesday, May 28th, 2003

I’m starting a new top secret quilt project. Last night and this morning I washed and ironed 18 yards of fabric, and my whole house smells like a laundry. I love that smell, especially on cold winter mornings when I walk past the exhaust vent of a dryer and have steamy warm detergent-air [...]

In which she gets childish and taunts people

Tuesday, May 27th, 2003

I forgot to mention about the times that I went out in Las Vegas with my new Louis Vuitton replica purse, I got all sorts of admiring stares, compliments, nudges, and whispered comments. According to some commenters on my previous pursal entry, I really need to have people think I’m so very rich and [...]

Things to remember

Tuesday, May 27th, 2003

The short high-pitched squealing noise that we heard every thirty seconds while driving down the road to the back gate of Area 51.
The smell of jasmine all up and down the Strip, where it bloomed riotously.
The woman at the deli whose male companion had to give a heimlich as she choked.
Accidentally ordering Deep Throat on [...]

Spam of Monte Cristo

Tuesday, May 27th, 2003

Is anyone else getting bizarre spams with quotes from The Count of Monte Cristo interspersed in the HTML? They look totally normal until you view the source, when all the quotes show up:
• !–according to custom, Franz gave up his seat to him. This –
• !–horrible. When you come to Paris, I will return [...]

Stupid Street Spammers

Tuesday, May 27th, 2003

A conversation with www.showmethemoney.net, who has plastered signs all over 15th St.:

In case you care, which I doubt, street spam is illegal and defaces our fair city. Seeing as how you don’t feel you are subject to the laws that govern the rest of us poor plebes, I have absolutely no inclination to support [...]

Someone hacked Michael Moore’s website. Here’s what it says:
