Here I am, at Delta Foxtrot’s pad, waiting for their flight.  I’ve been housesitting for the last week and now I have just another hour before I need to go pick them up.  Can’t drink.  Took my guitar home, although that doesn’t mean much cuz he’s got, like, 6 in the jam room…  But the point is that I’m in Finished Mode.  I’m done with this place.  The cats are fucking weird.  One has stayed hidden for the entire week.  I give them the wet food from the can just to make sure that she’s still here and alive cuz she won’t make an appearance for the dry shit, while the other just lets you know that he is indeed here by meowing nonstop for the first 15 minutes after you arrive home from work or wherever.  Hell, he just meows cuz he’s a cat and he can, dammit!

So here I am.  Empire Strikes Back is on TV, but I could do a one-man play of that movie with no rehearsal, so it’s on strictly to keep me company while I surf the web.  Did you know that Han Solo thought that tauntauns smelled bad on the outside, and yet he found that they smell REALLY bad on the inside too?  Yeah, he did.  He was trying to save Luke’s life out in the icy wilds of Hoth after Luke didn’t report in after going to look after what he thought was a meteor, but it really turned out to be an Imperial Probe Droid, aka a Probot.

Holy crap.

So I’m surfing around and I find this little nugget.  This comes courtesy of The Stranger, an alt weekly here in Seattle.  They have their I Saw U ads where if you saw somebody interesting, but didn’t have the time/guts to talk to them, you can place an ad and maybe something will come of it.  In addition to seeing if somebody spotted you out in the streets, it’s also fun to see ads like this.

Now, let’s just take a look at this shall we?  Firstly, she thought the guy was incredibly, no, ridiculously hot.  That right there was enough to inspire her to place the I Saw U ad.  However, he’ll have to wait for a different life, because apparently having a job at Subway (during a recession, mind you) makes one a loser.

See how I did that?  I made a point of bringing attention to the fact that this person is an idiot because she’s making fun of a person who actually has a job during times of record unemployment in our country.  But then I silently went about spelling the word “loser” correctly without pointing out that this idiot shouldn’t throw stones at people with jobs when she can’t spell or use punctuation OR proper grammar in her ad that does nothing positive for ANYBODY.

Well, it does good stuff for me, cuz I get to call her an idiot on the internet, thus making myself feel better about myself, or something like that?  Sure, that.

Only one more hour.  I hope that this relationship between Princess Leia and Han Solo actually goes somewhere.  Her planting a kiss on Luke in the infirmary gave me the creeps for some reason…

There’s this thing going around Facebook right now.  What you do is you, well…here it is.

Album Cover Design Time

1 – Go to “wikipedia.” Hit “random… Read More… Read More” or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random

The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band. (alternatively, if the first article you hit is short, hit Random Article two more times.)

2 – Go to “Random quotations”
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3

The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 – Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days” or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days

Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 – Use photoshop or Picnik.com or other photo editor to put it all together.

I went ahead and did it, but I can’t post it on Facebook, because they’ve changed their homepage/format and I can’t find any of the tools or see how to implement them anymore.  However it’s such an all-star that I’ve decided to post it here.
