“We’re tiny, we’re toony, we’re all a little loony!”
everyday glory July 24th, 2006Sunday : 23 July 2006
It’s been a good weekend.
Tonight, we saw My Super Ex-Girlfriend. I liked this, as well. It’s not necessarily Oscar fare, but it was fun. It was a good satire of both the superhero genre and romantic comedies. And I think that I am beginning to like – and even appreciate – Luke Wilson more as an actor. And that was Eddie Izzard?! Really?! I had no idea of that until the credits rolled. That was a pleasant surprise. Director Ivan Reitman seems to be back on top of his game.
I’ve questioned my sanity in the past, but every once in a while, I will do something that brings the whole “Have you lost your mind?!” question screaming back into focus. I’ve been wanting to get in a bike ride for the past few weeks; for whatever reason(s), I haven’t. Until today. When it was 105 degrees Fahrenheit. At least. I think that it was about 103 degrees when I finally headed out. I rode for about an hour-and-a-half. It was good. I’m sure that my legs will be good and sore tomorrow, but it was worth it.
[19:03]
: Insanity.
[19:03]: That’s the only answer.
[19:04]: yeah?
[19:04] *** Auto-response sent to: Gone, baby… Gone.
[19:04]: Rode from about 5:20 – 6:45
[19:04]: dude. it’s like 195 degrees out there.
[19:05]: 54th South/32nd East to 36th South to 36th South/36th West THEN did a mile on Granger’s track then back up 36th West to 5620 South and home.
[19:05]: And according to the Weather Channel’s site, it’s 103°
[19:05]: yeah. 195.
Tomorrow is Mormon Christmas… no, that’s not it.
Mormon Pride Day. No, that’s not it, either….
Pioneer Day. State Holiday. Parades. Re-enactments. Fireworks. Rodeos (and I don’t mean the Isuzu vehicles, either). Everything but the kitchen sink. I don’t get it as a paid holiday (I think that we are one of the few “local” companies that doesn’t act like a local company – I’m good with that), but I think that I might take the day off and hang out with
The Adventures of Indigo Bolt
It is Double XP Weekend in Paragon City and the Rogue Isles. So, I have been on teams patrolling the neighborhoods for miscreants. I have spent most of this time fighting Nemesis, the Carnival of Shadows and Rikti.
I hit Security Level 40 today.
“To Level 40….. and beyond!” (Apologies to Buzz Lightyear.)
Starting with my next level, I get to pick from the Epic Level Powers.

Quote of the Day
I was chatting with
[19:33]
: So how was your weekend?
[19:33]: It’s been pretty good.
[19:33]: Coolio. I just got back from the annual BBQ orgy that is the Columbus Jazz and Rib Fest.
[19:33]: I think I’m taking tomorrow off for Mormon Christmas… I mean “Mormon Pride Day”…. I mean “Pioneer Day,” since my gf has it off.
[19:34]: Jazz + Ribs = *jealous*
[19:35]: Well, I could give a hoot about Jazz, I go for the Meat.
[19:35]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_Day
[19:35]: It’s even bigger than 4th of July
[19:35]: Which makes me sad.
[19:35]: But, that’s me.
[19:35]: The locals eat it up.
[19:35]: Go figure.
[19:36]: I am surprised there isnt a Brigham Young day.
[19:39]: This is pretty close to it.
[19:39]: Besides, he has a university.
[19:39]: And statues.
[19:39]: And stuff.
[19:40]: And stuff? Like what? His own line of action figures?
[19:40]: Actually, there’s: BYU, BYU-Idaho and BYU-Hawai’i
[19:40]: Oooh.
[19:40]: I could make a MINT if I could get some BY action figures made.
[19:40]: *ponder*
[19:40]: That would rock!
[19:40]: O_o
[19:41]: “Relive the early days of The Church with your very own Brigham Young action figure!”
[19:41]: With kung-fu grip.
[19:41]: “I say to you, brethren, that this is the right place.”
[19:41]: Man, you have come up with the BEST idea EVER!
[19:42]: Well, just send me a little of the proceeds, and we will call it even.
Namaste.
