I'm in my favorite coffee shop again. I'm biding my time, so I'm going to write everything that occurs to me. Do some serious stream of consciousness.

My left hand is a terrible speller. I'm eating a bagel with ham (overpriced) and typing with the left. I keep typoing with Lefty, but I would never leave such a vital responsibility as both holding food and conveying it to my mouth to the clumsy bastard. It's not his fault he's a bad typist though. Him and Righty are a team at that task.

Every time I get a new album from a band I like, I hate it. Mostly it's just fear of the unfamiliar. Pretty soon I warm up to it, get obsessed with it, listen to nothing else, then forget about it in favor of the new new album.

Except for Dethklok.

I'm still pondering what to get my little brother for Christmas. Mom, covered. Step dad, covered. The Luke though...that's a tough one.

There's a dude invading my space right now. He seems to be putting up a flier over my shoulder. Like, right behind me. It's totally weirding me out. I don't like people being right behind me. What's it say?

Bollocks.

I wonder how weird I look apparently transcribing the flier behind me.

Heh. Tri-SMEG-istus.

I'm so glad I can write in HTML. Sure, it's more work than just writing in rich text, but I don't even see the code anymore. All I see is bold, table, hyperlink.

There's a very interesting flier for a death metal band. The art is of an anthropomorphic sheep dude in a suit holding the leash of a lioness babe made up like Betty Paige. The style of the art is disturbingly familiar...

Oh come on! Children come in here! Though I doubt they even glance at the bulletin board.

Hey. If you live outside of Humboldt county, do you know who Duane Flatmo is? If you don't but you've bought a beer from Six Rivers, you've seen his art. Just stay away from that tangerine shit. Get the Downtown Brown or the 8 Ball Stout. Seriously. Tangerine beer? Glurk.

Holy balls! The next Monkey Island games comes out tomorrow! Sweet.

If he were even real, Jesus had to poop. Think about it.

It's buttass cold here by the door.

Time to go home. Time to go home and watch Venture Bros. and Mystery Science Theater.

China limits people’s freedoms and rights, exhibits harsh and total control, keeps a tremendous amount of its operations secret, and yet makes a ridiculous amount of money. Who else does that make you think of, hmm?

The only difference is that Apple actually designs good products. Oh snap, China.

Hey Guys,

Unfortunately with our last release, and its instability, we were forced to roll back releases. Unfortunately in doing so, it would seem that our notification system has been broken somehow. Our engineers are working on this issue as quickly as possible. We hope to have a patch within the next day, so we can deploy our code and fix the notification system at the same time. Please *bear* with us ;)

Currently all notifications are being queued up so they can be processed as soon as the fix is pushed and verified to be working correctly.

Thank you,

These are just a few of the ones we are working on. I forgot to add the jackalope to the pic and corona and croc which is still being carved. Many things to come but we are aiming to have all these done so you guys can wear them for FC. So please pardon how slow we are with emails and and such. We are trying to get all these costumes done and sent out in time.

Plan to finish Damaron today and more than likely kane husky. Should have those pics posted soon enough. I still need to send some important emails and answer quite a few. I took a break this weekend to relax and enjoy the beach a bit so please bear with us.

Many more to come. Keep watching our flickr for updates as we keep working on these projects.

My Dear Friends of Junk Food,

I had to share this wonderful find my DH got for me today. He went to Aldi's (US) and they had Candy Cane Chocolate Sandwich Cookies. Basicly they are oreo type cookies with a double stuffed candy cane flavored filling. OMG they are so good.



He bought two so I am saving one to make Oreo Truffles with the second bag. It's totally trashy but a HUGE hit in every cookie/candy giftbox I give. Here is the recipe for those who need it:

1. Grind one bag of Oreo or generic chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor until fine.
2. Whip one package of cream cheese with blender then slowly add cookie crumbs until all combined.
3. Chill until firm.
4. Scoop balls either with spoons or small cookie/ice cream scoop (that's what I use)
5. Dip balls in cocoa, melted chocolate, crushed candy canes, powdered sugar, etc...
6. Enjoy and refrigerate any leftovers.

so i bought a premade quiche for a potluck, but nobody ate it. i managed to eat about half of it over a few days, but now i'm so bored of it, and i dont know what to do to make it more interesting. ideas? it's asparagus and gruyere cheese.

also, here is a picture from a few years ago. my friend and i made cupcakes, but we had some leftover batter and no muffin tins, so we made them into pancake like things. then filled them with raspberries, chocolate, and i think some of the orange zest vanilla cream cheese icing.
