Dating Grumpybear led me to realize how destructive and life-sucking World of Warcraft can be. I don’t have anything against that game, just something against the people that ignore everything around them to play it. This poor kid… he’ll live.

I tried to be subtle about this, I didn’t even twitter it, yet. Unfortunately, when you start the wonderful process of changing profile statuses to “single,” and one of your social means is Facebook, subtlety gets hard. After about a half dozen im’s and emails from folk that are facebookers, I’ll make it public.
I really don’t want to hear how Michael was bad for me, or how I’m better off. Truth is, it doesn’t really matter. Not being with Michael was something that I had to do for a new year for myself. This has been that hardest decision for me to make, because instead of something catastrophic to trigger this, I had to realize on my own that we weren’t meant to be past a year.
I’m just gonna take some time to myself, hang out with friends and focus on me. I’m not going to be dating anyone else from Buffalo for a while, the supply of decent single have long been exhausted and I don’t feel like trying to disprove that claim either.
Blogging was impossible last weekend. I don’t get out much, but when I do, it seems to be a weekend of it. Gotta get it out of my system I suppose, so I can go back to the stodgy hermitesque lifestyle that so fits me currently. And by hermit, I mean denning up in the office, chained to my desk, watching xtube, working on projects, and blogging.Since I know homo’s and blog readers alike enjoy shiny things, I’ve added a bunch of pictures to tell the story…

Sorry for the delay, a slight glitch in office the office tubes, and a trip to the YMCA prevented a same day update to part 1.
Mummra promised Saturday that we’d make the dough Sunday when I came over with the Grumpybear. We figured out the recipe and let the dough chill all day. I made the cutout for a six-inch Gingerdunny this time; even with perfect dough, they will spread, and I wanted to keep as much detail as I could.

Rolling and cutting was SO much easier this time…. keeping the poor cookies alive: not so easy. See, Marc — Mummra’s “it’s complicated” man-slave companion — likes to bring his two black labs over to hang out, too. We call them the Hoovers. They see food, its gone. Nailed down, no matter. The only way to keep them away is to literally put a wall or door between the Hoovers and the food. I’m sad to say about half of the batch was lost to the never ending gullets of these beasts. After everything was done, I had 10 Gingerman Dunny’s safe and sound.
I met up with Angel on Monday and we started decorating. I was so excited, they came out so much better than I thought, and I think I have the first documented batch of Real Gingerman Dunny’s to reveal:

Take that AllthingsJen! Angel of course had to turn his into a GingerTranny, her name is Dunnicia, and her boyfriend is the best of the bunch

We even made the rare “bitten” chase:

Oh yea, one more thing. Here’s a little homage we made to a great little video that NO ONE should ever watch. We call it: 2 fags, 1 cup…..


I had to wait for the initial Digg-fuck to be over with, and now here’s the latest thing to gather my fancy: The R2-D2 Translator.
Just type in your phrase (30 characters max) and get a bells and whistles playback in Artoo, with the ability to download as an mp3.
The possibilities are finite: ringtones.
Currently. I’m rocking the yoshi sounds from Super Mario World for texts, and the Diplo “stronger” remix for calls. However, I can think of no better new annoyance than the replace everything with droid speak:

I’m sure grumpybear will get a kick out of this.
Even Google seems to think its all offishal, as I was looking for some graphics to mash up for this post….

Grumpybear has XM, its great. I’m always logged into the online radio page at work, the other office, etc. Sirius? eh, one friend has it, got it for Stern, and I’m not sure if he still uses it now he has an iPhone as his Lord and saviour. The big deal here isn’t so much the merger. Satellite radio is so cheap and affordable, there isn’t any fear of jacked up service and costs for the consumer. In fact, this is great… dual services with one device, merged services, whatever. Total win for the consumer. Finally, Sirius customer could possibly one day get their money’s worth the day they hear Opie and Anthony (yes, Fuck Stern).
The outcry is really from terrestrial broadcasters, who may not be able to cope with the gravitational influence of such a super radio giant. I say this is signs of change. Terrestrial anything is going the way of the CD: great as a backup, but not really the easiest way to consume.
Let’s see what happens. Perhaps hands will shake by the closing bell.
Grumpybear calls him the godfather, I call him a homewrecker (long story, but I still love him). Either way, Xotec is the man (Pronownce it Ex-o-tech). Once of the forefather Dj’s from Buffalo, Xotec spends his time spinning in Rochester with monthly jaunts down to Marcella’s (he was here last week). It’s really hard to say what he does, some days its house, sometimes its trance, sometimes its rock-trip-commercial-hardcore. X does what he likes and its always freakin gold… see for yourself:

Saturday is here, thats the end of my work week. I’ve dealt with enough drama, politics, little kids, candy, alcohol, and homo’s to last me the rest of the year. But I can’t escape it, that’s my life and I’m sticking to it.
A quick recap of this week..
