A few life updates are probably in order...
i am engaged...she is cool times 10 millions of billions
i have recently taken employment at Overstock.com writing copy (taking after the talented Elaine Bennice, though my employer is ten shades of boring compared to hers).
i now prospect for gold whenever i have a free afternoon...honestly.
i found some.
i have faithfully followed the world cup and have this to say about it all: How can a sporting event that halts a civil war, is worshiped by every nation (sans one), is commercial free, and motivates governments to give half-holidays on the day their team plays, be seen as anything but glorious entertainment served up like so much pipin' hot pizza to the masses?
My most recent play-list:
- Outlaw Song by 16 horsepower
- Mercy by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
- Tank Park Salute by Billy Bragg
- Muzzle of Bees by Wilco
- A House by Doves
- Modern World (Original Recording) by Wolf Parade
- Dirty Girl by Eels
- Dying of the Pines by the Gourds
- Crosses by Jose Gonzalez
- When I Go Deaf by Low
- My Only Friend by Deadsy
- All Mixed Up by the Red House Painters
- Ghostwriter by RJD2
- 10:1 by Rogue Wave
- A Guiding Light by Smog
- Something To Look Forward To by Spoon
- Don't Think Twice, It's Alright by Bob Dylan
- Into the Fire by Thirteen Senses
mostly, that is all
they mostly come out at night...mostly.
ReplyDeleteisn't the world cup just grand? i am only a little upset about the hour difference of this world cup because the only games I can catch are on the weekends...and I am more than a little upset at ESPN for not re-broadcasting all the games in the evening. I did manage to go to work late (only to stay home for america's elimination), and i conveniently caught the Flu last saturday which kept me in bed for 2 straight (5 games...stellar)..but you are right: served up like the pipin' hot Za of my sleep...remeniscent of our bygone days at Pizza University in Brindese, Italy, where I majored in toppings and crust and your emphasis was in tossing with a minor in sausage.
Oh, Dangrond--i'm glad you got back to me...and that you reminded me. ESPN360.com is streaming the final rounds of World Cup. It is a thing to behold...just leave a little browser window open up in the corner, one eye on your text and one eye on the bottle (i mean, the futbol).
