Oh, Miss Alberts

I know I said I would come visit today and we'd have fun in lieu of you having the day off.

And I know you said you were giggling thinking about all the fun we would have.

But Arun, Frush, Sang, Jacob and Roberto have different plans for me, filling my head with thoughts of Chicago and the Appleseed Cast and Snuggie bar crawls and hot tub parties in the middle of the winter.

And not to mention seeing Kristen and Alyssa.

And Megan.

But I'll be there next weekend, I promise,

to make you giggle.

Gilmore Girls

It seems that nobody understands you but me.

When you have those rapid-fire conversations brimming with pop-culture references,

you are speaking my language.

Super Soaker 50

Frush pointed out a day or two or three ago that the Super Soaker 50 is going to be back on the market in celebration of being twenty years old. This makes me feel like a senior citizen, but also very young again, as I am by far juvenile enough to want a few of these in order to make summer like, infinity times better. Short of releasing an actual Nintendo Entertainment System with a hard drive filled with games, I am not sure a better updated-product from my elementary school days could be released.

They hit the stores the day before my date of birth, so if I am not spraying my friends in the face with beer at my party than we can safely assume my wish did not come true.

The guy says, "I would, but I need the eggs." Well, I guess that's pretty much now how I feel about relationships; y'know, they're totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd, and... but, uh, I guess we keep goin' through it because, uh, most of us... need the eggs.
