for all you twit/twats: something constructive you can do

I dunno if it could save someone's life, but...

"If anyone is on Twitter, set your location to Tehran and your time zone to GMT +3.30. Security forces are hunting for bloggers using location/timezone searches. The more people at this location, the more of a logjam it creates for forces trying to shut Iranians' access to the internet down. Cut & paste & pass it on..."

Pogues tickets are on sale today for the 10/11/09 show at Roseland theater in Portland. Please buy 2 for me! They're only $65 each! Thanks.

I can't stop sneezing. Nuxie is worried that I'm gona kill her fuchsia while she's gone.

My lawnmower is giving me grief. The motor fires once and dies, fires once then dies. I've replaced the air filter, changed the oil, now i have to replace the fuel filter and see if that does the trick. If not, I could be in some deep shit. I'll have to hire Dylan to mow the lawn... and he's selling lemonade at Saturday Market today I'll bet.

Nuxie and I went to dinner at PF Chang's. I must say their pork fried dumplings are fully blown nectar. afters we went to Wandering Goat and watched the first 45 minutes of a new Local Indie slasher film called MELVIN. My brother in law is named MELVIN. Many of the cast members and the writer/director were there. Nuxie had an iced mocha, and it kept her up till the wee hours, crocheting.

She's closing her etsy store while she's on vacation and we'll be really broke for a while. hence my having to beg for Pogues tickets. I have to buy her tires for when I drive down to pick em up

My undying love and respect and good/great wishes to all y'all ghetto/metal/fabulous creatures.


cheers

You really shouldn't take drugs so early in the day.

Well i'll be danged. I guess I missed it. I went and bought tickets for this one, so now I am very excited. Thanks for the heads up.

The garden show was full of hippies, as I figured it would be. I didn't even get there until after 2AM because I was watching the Whiskey Spots at Oak Street Speakeasy first. I only stuck around the MOB show for an hour or so before I fled. Kimmy and Chris L said it was good though.

I'm going back outta town this weekend to camp at the coast with SCAdians at their annual geekfest War. What are you doing?

Eggles?

No, dork, not Egils, but the Antir/West War. It is the other annual event in this area. Egils happens on Memorial Day weekend each year, while the Antir/West War happens on 4th of July weekend each year. But nice try. :)

Who the poop is Nathaniel Howe? Did I miss something?

Have a super weekend!

Yes, I have ALWAYS been a very very lucky person, in spite of various "bad" things that have occurred in my life. It's nice to be the lucky one, I assure you. :)

SO- the question on everyone's lips: Did you, in fact, do to the hippie fest with MOB?

btw- all my dearest, most favorite, closest friends are dorks, so be ye wary.
