Crawling in silence, a simple excuse...
I know, I'm full of excuses these days. Here is the update!
- Work still sucks, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Sweet-talked the printer and got an extra couple days to get things done. Score!
- Dodgeball 2nd round playoff game was tonight. I actually made it there in time to play (and played pretty well). We lost 6-4, but it was an incredibly close 6-4. They were the eventual champion, but it looks like we're putting together a Mr. Burns level all-star team to compete with them next season. A couple teams are folding and we're ending up with their best players. Looking forward to it already.
- Went out to Ale House after dodgeball with some people who were actually happy that my team lost. This was very disappointing knowledge. VERY DISAPPOINTING.
- Still no V For Vendetta review. These things take time! And now it'll never live up to the buildup!
- None of this Half Nekkid Thursday jibber jabber here. I know all you ladies are disappointed. Well, maybe one.
- Still enjoying Arctic Monkeys. Just a little bummed that one of my favorite lines on the album (the fake tan one in "Still Take You Home") is different from what I thought it was. I thought it was, "But I'm struggling, I can't see through your fake tan, you know it for a fact that everybody sees it out to your hands," but it's actually, "you know it for a fact that everybody's eating out of your hands." Changes the whole context of the line. The power shifts to her. Yes, I am completely insane about music and lyrics like that. I still will be working, "you're all tarted up & you don't look the same," into conversation at some point.
- I do not have much funny to say. All funny is being used up elsewhere. Which makes me wonder how much funny there was in the first place. Or something. I don't even know what I'm saying anymore.
- First person to get the title reference gets +5 cool points on the Maki scale. VERY hard to come by.
- Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

As I tried to explain to you before, I wasn't really happy that you lost; I was happy that I didn't have to drive all over and stay out really late when God knows I need my beauty rest! In order for that to happen, you had to lose. Sorry.
I like Bjork : )
And who is SOME people?? *I* wanted to see you get smashed by balls!
Shite, I don't know how I forgot it was HNT... we were all just talking about it last night. No nekkid photos at work... will have to wait til I get home... and then I can avoid my homework some more while posting blogs.
I believe the title was a reference to the famous Edgar Allen Poe epic poem that begins,
"Crawling in silence, a simple excuse to crawl silently.
Fighting with fists, is what they would call fighting violently.
When I feel beaten, bruised and forlorn
I like to go home and download some porn
Eating with forks, eating with spoons
Poetry rules! Now let's watch cartoons."
He was brilliant. I will take my five Maki points in small, unmarked bills.
Speaking of maliging classic poetry, Maki has now stuck a tune in my head:
We're talkin' dodge-ball...
From Maine to San Diego.
Talkin' dodge-ball...
Mattingly and Canseco.
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw.
Steve Sax and his run-in with the law.
We're talkin' Homer... Maki and the Straw.
No HNT, Maki?
Half Nekkid Thursday!
Katie: Excuses, excuses, excuses. Besides, really late for you is what, 10:15?
Tracy: Five points to Tracy! And I don't know if I appreciate you wanting to see me smashed by balls. That's actually, kind of disturbing.
Lindsay: They're going to be sequential bills, you know.
Alonzo Mosley, FBI: I love that episode. "I thought I told you to shave those sideburns!"
The Rest Of You: No HNT. Sorry. If you don't get a V review, you certainly don't get photos!
What's wrong with 10:15, huh?? You don't see me trying to come up with creative solutions to the alarm clock because I'm well-rested. Call me old-fashioned.
Just be glad there are no numb arms involved...
*sweet smile*
Why is your schedule so booked?!?!
*another sweet smile*
