This isn’t so much “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” as it is “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Depress the Crap Out Of You Eve”. Good God, he sounds worse than ever.
On 2008
I’ve made a couple of mentions about how 2008 can simply blow me. And, honestly, it has been one of the hardest years yet. But there’s one thing that I keep coming back to that kind of tempers its awfulness. It wasn’t but a couple of years ago that my marriage was near collapse. I was one misplaced set of keys from losing everything. This year, however, B and I celebrated our 5...

From TSG:
When I asked the question “Where were you going?”, he told me that he ran the stop sign because he was in a hurry to pick up the girl I saw get in the passenger seat. He asked me to admit that she was “hot.” He asked me, “You want the truth?” When I told him I did he said, “I was gonna drive around the corner and get a blow job.” He then...

I’ll be thinking of you while I’m sitting in the cold!

They’re calling it Y2K9, which is kind of hilarious.
If the archive can be trusted (and I don’t know that for sure, as a couple posts are showing up multiple times), December has been by far my most active month since I started this blog in March ‘07.
Congratulations, Tumblr, I don’t think I’ve stuck with any kind of blogging platform this long ever. Well, okay, I think I had an OpenDiary for a while. DON’T JUDGE ME.
Hi… I’m in Delaware.

Anybody want to do a sports-focused group tumblr? I think we could have a shitload of fun with it.

You will overlook white Falcons fans. Besides being incredibly disloyal, they, along with the media, will heap all the praise on Mike Smith and Matt Ryan for the Falcons playoff run, conveniently ignoring the contributions of Michael Turner, Roddy White and John Abraham. Way to follow the Paula Deen Diet, you fat fucks.
You will ignore the black Falcons fans. Matt Ryan could win the next eight...

Let’s see how long this goes. 11:11am is when the music began.
Update: 11:14am. Wow, that wasn’t too bad at all. I wait longer to talk to my actual doctor.

Anyone else using Mon.thly not able to forward the calendar through to ‘09?
(to self) Oh, hey, what is this, some new calendar app? You know, I never did get used to using 30boxes, maybe this could be worth a look…
Click.
Oh… oh… oh God…
Can someone explain to me why I can’t stop watching “The Deadliest Catch”? And why I can’t stop thinking about the camera crews stuck with these guys?

If those of you in #tumblrs see me poking in and out, try not to be too annoyed. I’m trying to hang out for a bit, but I’m finding I don’t have the time that I used to when it comes to sitting in an IRC channel.

If you don’t mind, folks, I’d like to consider the option that we may just have to do it live.
If it helps, I’ll even write it. Also, perhaps we should replace the teleprompter? It seems to be in disrepair.

Honestly, 2008 cannot end fast enough.
