ET, iPhone home

Just over a week since we waited in line to order them, Jess and I finally got our iPhone 3Gs. Or rather, I went and got them while she got her hair cut as I was so impatient. Within the space of half an hour, the sales assistant at the AT&T store had set up our account, transfered our numbers from...

Vox Hunt: What? This Old Thing?

Show us an antique. Submitted by jacolily. Excuse the crappy picture... ... this relic from a bygone age is a Game Boy. An actual Game Boy - there is no suffix, whether we're talking Light, Color, Advance, Micro or what have you. No, this is a 1989 original. Among the many other ways you can tell...

QotD: The iPhone 3G is Here!

Are you going to be amongst the first people to buy the iPhone 3G? If so, when do you plan on picking yours up and which one will you be purchasing? I am ashamed to say, I was one of "those" people. You know, those people you see standing in lines that stretch around corners waiting for some hot new...

We tried but we don't belong

It's crazy times right now. Lots happening. After the surprise birthday party last week, we were somehow more manic this week. On Thursday, Jess and I got out of work early, went to see WALL-E and had dinner together. Afterwards, we met co-workers at a bar as it was the day of Laura's birthday. They...

Having a ball... a whirlyball

This was a good weekend. I am going to mention a bunch of people's names - they're mostly co-workers, don't worry. We had wanted to see WALL-E on Friday, and even arranged to do so with our friends Jason and Brad, but two things transpired to prevent us. First, the showing we wanted to go to sold...

Whatever floats your boat or don't rain on my parade

A couple of weekends ago, we went to Sparta's Butterfest. Sparta is Jess' home town, and being a small city in Wisconsin, it was only natural that its annual fair be named after a dairy product. While the fair itself was mostly rained out, the sun was out for the parade on the Sunday. Being my first...

I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day

After saying goodbye to my parents and having a two-day work week, I didn't expect to have the energy to do much this weekend. Somehow, though, we did a fair amount. I had to get up really early on Saturday morning as I had a biometrics appointment with US Immigration. Unlike the last time, where...

QotD: Today's To-Do List

What's on your "To-Do" list today? What are you most looking forward to and what are you most dreading? - Shave... as in clean shave... for the first time in months. Jess may like the permastubble, but it itches bad enough as it is, without the heat and humidity. CHECK. - Be awesome. CHECK. - Ivan...

I'm late, I'm late, I'm positively late

Oh white rabbit. I've not updated properly in a few days. To be honest, I've been lazy. There's a lot going on this month so it's been nice to just do nothing at all. I suppose you want the good news first. Well, on the immigration front, we have our interview appointment. While it's not good news...

You need a bulletproof vest 'round your heart

Last night, our friend Tim came into the city so he, Jess and I could go see Assassins - an excellent local band - playing in a bar down in the Ukrainian village. We got there before the 8pm opening time, and thus had to sit in another nearby bar drinking beer till it opened. The bar was dark and...

The Rip

Music is pretty much awesome. This week, Jess bought... - Boo! Human by Joan Of Arc - Plague Park by Handsome Furs ... and I bought... - The Magic Position by Patrick Wolf - Planet Of Ice by Minus The Bear - Maplewood by Maplewood (they feature the drummer from Nada Surf) ... and have the following...

I have a recurrent dream

So begins 'Heirloom' by Bjork, and so begins this post. I've had it a lot over the past year. Elements change, but the overall theme is the same. I am in what I recognise to be one of my old places in London. Sometimes, it actually is one of those places, other times it is a place my brain has made...

Let me be weak, let me sleep and dream of sheep

This weekend has been... yeah, it's been alright. Jess made last minute plans to go up and visit her mum in Wisconsin - her mum just had surgery and needed an extra pair of hands, plus they haven't seen each other since Christmas and there's been... stuff in between then and now. I was going to go...

I just want to sparkle for a moment before I just fizzle out and die

I am posting this song because a) it is lovely, and b) it appears in the new Tina Fey/Amy Poehler film Baby Mama, which we saw on Friday. While this song from the obscure British duo Boy Least Likely To was a surprise, the film's plot was cheesy and predictable. Thankfully, I could forgive it...

broken bumpers, books, and sushi.

Jess and I slept in. We've been switching back and forth with who is having anxiety troubles, and this morning was hers. Thankfully one of us is almost always stable and okay when the other is freaking out. It's all this school stuff, she is graduating in a couple weeks and that scares her. I...

Trial Post, Let's see...

Hey there. This is just a test to see if I can figure out how to use this blog website. I am pretty new to this, so I have no idea if this is going to work. Let's hope for the best.

Protect Me From What I Want

I have no updated in forever! Gosh, I am sorry Vox. LiveJournal is somehow much easier for me to update - must be all the history I have with it. Or perhaps it is the love I have for Semagic. First and foremost: Thomas and I found a 3-bedroom house not very far from my college campus. It has 2...
