I went to TARGET 3 times today. Once to pick up a wedding gift (good ceremony BTW) but I foolishly let E. Claire take her stuffed kitten in (do you see where this is going??). So, I watched it the whole 4 mins we were in there until she got into the impulse items. Got home, realized it wasn’t with us, called the store, got blown off, went to the wedding, and waited for the non-call.
In a vain effort to get out of the doghouse, I went up there to investigate. Nothing. Got home and Mrs. Manimal asked if I searched the toy dept. to see if it was placed there. 48 seconds later, the 4 Manimals were in the car and back to TARGET. I alerted Customer Service and the re-stocker in the toy dept.
Well, we never found it BUT we did find a kitty for 25 cents in the Easter clearance section AND a Furr-Real toy from McDONALDS so the universe is back in balance.
On an unrelated topic that only X-Ers could appreciate, I got Allie to stop fussing the other day by playing a little “MAGIC DANCE” from LABYRINTH.
I got mixed feelings on owning LABYRINTH but it got the job done.

Dammit, it aired during this weird dancing show instead.
There is a cucumber soda sold in the U.S. – it’s made by Press Cocktail Soda in Milwaukee. It’s actually quite refreshing. If you wanna try a great libation, mix it with Hendrick’s Gin, a cucumber infused gin from Scotland. Delicious.

“Cabin Fever” is a magnificent film. Deputy Winston is one of my short duration personal saviors, because he loves to party. Praise Deputy Winston. Praise the kid from Boy Meets World meeting his ultimate terror. Where is Topanga when you need her?
Ultraman, what’s your FC? I’ll be brawling in a bout 5-10 minutes.

Ant,
I’ve been living in China for the past two months, and it’s certainly a helluva thing to acclimate oneself to a non-western culture. Just give it time, maintain an open mind, and you’ll be alright. And don’t shy away from freaked-out foods, either. Half the fun of my trip has been getting exposed to cuisine that I’d never see otherwise. I can’t really speak for the Japanese, but the citizens of north-central China love their fish-heads, livestock organ-meat, jellyfish tentacles, and they like it all as SPICY as they can make it! I wouldn’t recommend the booze, though. I’ve yet to try any rice-based liquor over here that doesn’t taste like vinegar. Anyway, have a safe trip and enjoy yourself! Kampai!

That stinks Matt, even though the Kid’s Choice Awards have been a sack of crap since…oh about the Mid-90s, or when you realized that Rugrats always seemed to win over the Simpsons.
Also, different topic, don’t you hate it when your friends plan & do something awesome and don’t/refuse to tell you? And that it didn’t turn out to be a surprise party?
some pics of the puppy…also…I feel so weird tonite…like i have been eating the most random food today. first for breakfast i had a jelly donut, buttered roll and eggs and sausage….then was at my moms and had some onion and sausage pizza…then bout an hour ago I had a eggplant and roasted red pepper mozzarella panini and a frosty…and a orange drink thing….no wonder my hiatal hernia and reflux has been going nuts on me.
I love SNT…yep…sure do…oh yeah…and today like early this morning, I awoke to the stench of skunk!…some skunks decided to pee or spray around the front door and under the kitchen window of my little home. oh man it was sooooooo nasty….its still stinks

Norb, that blows all kinds of ass. It’s just been a fucky week I think. I was supposed to chill today with my fuck buddy and he just dropped off the face of the planet again. I think the amount of times I’ve been stood up has now seriously gone into the double digits. Oh well. C’est le vie.
ULTRAMAN
Nice Brawling with you. Sorry, I got to call it a night. Man, there needs to be a way to say “hey I gotta go” so you don’t just have to drop out…
Oh, and obviously I could do some practicing….

I just learned that Christopher Walken will be the host of next week’s SNL. If my current patterns take hold I will forget to watch it.
Cham-pan-yah? I hope so.

As to the horror movie question above….
Sure you can count camp movies (Friday the 13th/Sleepaway Camp) or even Cabin Fever… you can even make the case for Evil Dead 1 & 2 since they go away to the cabin.
don’t forget Turistas, Barricade, Hostel…
And for the ultimate take you away from your home element see Battle Royale from Japan. An entire class of kids are kidnapped during their class field trip and forced to an island where they have 72 hours to kill one another until there is only one left. 30 death scenes = good stuff.

Rob: I LOVE Battle Royale. One of my favs. Have you seen the sequel? It’s pretty great.
Another horror/vacation movie could be Mothers Day.
Although that also involves camping. Hmmm….

Awesome. And yes, there will definitely be a Continental sketch. In the past 6 times he hosted, there was always one.
Although when the last time we hosted, we actually hated the French, but this time…I’m hoping for awesome.
And I apologize for missing Brawling…I just wasn’t in the mood for wifi-ing tonight after work. Maybe some other time.
Went to Wal-Mart today and bought a new Dorito flavor called Sweet Spicy Chili. Also, Pringles now has new “extreme” flavors and I bought the Buffalo Wing flavor. Haven’t tried either one yet, though.
On the way home Dominoes Pizza was having a Customer Appreciation Day with $3.98 medium one topping pizzas and we had that for lunch. Haven’t ha Dominoes in awhile and they were pretty good. Also bought a $5 Subway footlong to have for lunch tomorrow.
Went to Target yesterday and they still had a couple of Easter aisles there, although it was just the generic candy, toys, and the expensive stuff like candy-making kits that no one wants even if it’s discounted 75% off.
All I did tonight was watch I Think I Love My Wife on HBO (it was ok), then the Steve Byrne Comedy Central special, Torchwood, and the Black Cat “Masters of Horror” dvd.

aww… why does no one care about me?

Wow, I missed SNT because I was actually out being social on a Saturday night.
What’s next? Internet with pants on?
