Vote early, vote often!

Everyone remembers the first time they voted, I think. How would you have voted in this race?



For the record, I voted yes.

Haul-o-ween

For the first time in my lifetime, it actually rained while I was out on Halloween. Not buckets, and not even consistently, but still, it rained. This is unusual for the part of California in which I live.

Although I guess technically, I'm in a different part now that we've moved; this was our first Halloween in our new digs.

And we're off to a good start; we got five full-size candy bars (another first in my experience). Brody was very enthusiastic about getting more candy even though he doesn't actually eat it.

"What are you going to do with all your candy?" my wife asked him.

"You gonna give it to me?" I asked.

"Yep."

"Awesome."

Want want want want want:

A Beatles video game, a la Rock Band and Guitar Hero.

How sad is it to post a YouTube video just because I miss the old design of Doritos bags?



And get the hell off my lawn, y'damn kids...

How to keep a moron in suspense...

In this case, the moron would be me. I just caught this video on FAIL Blog, and I was sitting there trying to figure out the source of fail. See if you guess it before I did.

In my room...

I found this while I was unpacking one of the billion or so boxes now occupying my new house. I think I was around 7 or 8 when I wrote this for some school testing thing that was going on.

I got this copy right after I turned 18 and decided to request a copy of my scholastic file--you know, to see if everything they said would go in to your permanent record actually did.

Unloading a 14-foot U-Haul truck loaded with boxes in one hour: Ow. Thinking of how sore I will be tomorrow, given how sore I was this morning: Do I have to wake up?
