JANE Q. PUBLIC HAS MOVED!

I'm moving this operation over to Wordpress because it's just got better features, so please change your links and subscriptions (all 5 of you!) accordingly:

But once in awhile the roommates get something right-

trash day


...and with that, I swear I'm done slapping random crap up here. For tonight.

(yes, my creativity is at an all-time low.)

do you wanna eat do you wanna sleep do you wanna drown?

I used to live alone before I knew ya

The roommates are driving me bananas. I love this house, and I'm certainly glad to at least be living with dudes*, but I never wanted roommates. Of course it was a move of immediate necessity, so none of us had much of a choice (30 day notice to vacate old apartments where we were neighbors, due to sale of property).

I don't know... I just miss my space. And I miss being able to go to the kitchen in the middle of the night in whatever state of undress was the style at the time.

This house is for sale, and I wish so badly that I could buy it. Oh well.

*Ladies, if we're friends, you're in a rare club. I am so much more comfortable around guys - which probably makes me a tramp.

good times for a change

A couple of things, neither one related to the other:



Attack of the Amys

Below is an accurate representation of what my coworkers (most of whom are named Amy) do at work while I stay busy drawing pictures of firearm-wielding breakfast food:

Just sayin...

All in all, I can't complain.

What I'm wearing right now

From the post title, it has the potential to be something really dirty - sorry to disappoint, you pervs! And the girl in the picture below is not me (to those of you who haven't seen me), because I never was so lucky.


I bought it here.

I will still cast my ballot for him ... with a heavy heart.

WHY, BARACK, WHY?!!!!!!

Gun Street Girl

I'm still too shaky, so rather than typing out a narrative of what just happened, here's the instant message version:

JQP: so i had to call 911 about 20 minutes ago
JQP: i was sitting outside smoking and there was all of this yelling at the apartments next door... then i heard three loud pops, and this time i DID NOT think it sounded like fireworks.
friend: Why?
JQP: two more when i was on the phone with the dispatcher
friend: Holy shit
JQP: stuck my head out the door after that and it was totally silent - like everyone had scattered
JQP: then i see a car head down the hill and a few seconds later i hear 5 or 6 more pops that sounded like they were going down the hill with the car
JQP: the fire trucks left, but the cops are still there
JQP: my guess is that no one was shot, but that someone may have shot a gun to scare the people they were arguing with.
JQP: i wish i had a police scanner.
friend: Oh my God, that's terrifying. Are you alright?
JQP: yeah, just really on edge.
JQP: i've never called the cops in my life.

The non-Duckie version

Here's a little early feel good for your Friday:

Just because...

I bring you one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies:

Just got done making a mix:

An entire CD's worth of really great songs didn't make the cut, so another will be forthcoming.

Like Seinfeld, About Nothing

I should update more often. I partially blame Twitter. Also the hours I have to spend on Google Reader catching up in the evenings (don't have the luxury of a job that allows extracurricular internet usage outside of lunch break, so the queue in the reader gets awfully backed up). Furthermore, some days my job sucks my will to live.

Excuses, excuses.

THAT SOUNDS CRAZY!
