Pointless Announcements

I swear, the next person to scream stupid shit at me related to my idiotic decision to throw on a light orange shirt is going to get pepper sprayed.

Seriously. Fucking late adolescents wearing pyjamas of black and red running through the shopping center parking lot screaming, "Boooooo, Gators... Screw the Gators!"
Fuck both teams, it's a comfy shirt. Get off my lawn!!

 

I know, right?! Just like whenever I wear my NY Jets t-shirt I get shot at in Baltimore. The nerve of some people.

 

tumblr has been down all damn day.
i'm like a crackhead whose dealer ain't never shown up on the corner.

 

hahaha

same here. I've been checkin' it about every 5 seconds. I'm feenin'

 

The pre-holiday fighting in my family has already begun. My dad just invited me to lunch for the yearly guilt trip. Time to head out of town.

Yeah, I'm really hoping I'll be back to work before T-day and X-mas. As much as my old lady loves the holidays, I'm tired of the mania.

 

i use pinterest and tumblr in tandem. so, gah!

 

unless you have an over-bearing, self-righteous family like mine who likes to take every opportunity to try and "save" your soul and point out how much of a fuckup you are...despite my being the most accomplished and biggest bank in the bunch. My brother is the worst, sporting a mouth that writes checks he can't come close to cashing. Sorry, I'm not interested in Jerry Springer Xmas.

 

WHOA!!! family reunion flashback.

 

It's going to be just me and the girls for thanksgiving this year. and we are doing it at daughter #2's new apartment because she has this fabulous decent-sized kitchen.

in other news,
i have listened to this song about 10 times in the last 24 hours. it reminds me of tooling around in my little 70-something toyota corolla, smoking pot and listening to cassette tapes with my friend Jane. i wish i had kept in touch with her. *....reverie....*

Since I missed my usual appointment on the 15th, I'm doing that crazy impossible thing that Hektore says nobody ever does.

Behold!

The 2012 Primary Colors of Backup

External hard drives?

 

Yessir! Serious like a heart attack. Shock-resistant and waterproof ExHDDs for work and "arks" for chronological clones of my personal stuff. One ark stays in the house, one is parked elsewhere off site so I can recover it if my house burns down and/or is sacked by marauding Vandals, the bastards.

Overkill? Probably. But I'd be super heartbroken if I lost all of my archived TFP stuff. The years I've put into filling this site with garbage? Priceless.

 

Hah. You really go all-out on making sure you can continue your life exactly as you were within minutes of a major incident (house burned down, armageddon, inevitable Russian invasion, etc).

I should totally employ you one day to set the same system up for me.

 

I love Bald men but also at my age most of the available ones are bald.

 

Given that my IQ is somewhere around room temperature, I'm guessing you can save yourself the money and handle a USB cable.
