Never a dull moment

I have this weird neighbor.

The guy’s not Kramer-level weird, but he’s not quite serial-killer level weird. He’s lived in the building for more than 10 years, he doesn’t have a car and it’s impossible to encounter him without being pulled into a conversation.

He seems like a nice guy and all, but he always wants to talk about the weather, and every time I’ve talked to him throughout the past six years, he’s used the phrase “never a dull moment.” It’s like his catchphrase or something.

I was doing some laundry, and saw him a bunch of times walking through the halls carrying stacks of things- DVDs, books, posters. I finally asked him if he was becoming a minimalist or something, and he said he was moving. Across the street.

So this probably means that at six years, I now have lived in this building the longest. It would be depressing if I wasn’t moving out in September.

I hope that’s not an Oceanic flight he’s hopping on

Seems like a lot happened during the 1:00 a.m.- 2:00 a.m. hour.

I’m huge in China

After recently checking my referrer log, I noticed I’ve been getting a few hits from China.

All of these hits are coming from a Chinese-language Google ripoff, called baidu. Apparently, the image of my foot in a splint makes the first page of results. However, judging by what else comes up when you search for foot, I don’t know if that’s a good thing (here’s a hint- don’t search the site if you’re at work).

The individual results page is safe, although I hope all the Chinese text doesn’t tell the story of how some tall lanky jackass broke his ankle falling off a treadmill.

They’re partying in Finland tonight

Happy birthday to the greatest Old Timey base ball player ever, Conan O’Brien.

If there was one person to play me in a movie version of my life, it would be the near-albino Late Night host.

He’s way funnier than Leno. If only he wasn’t on so damn late.

I can only hope his long-lost sister Chlöe makes it through the next seven hours.

Sleepover at Bill Buchanan’s house!!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The 12:00 a.m. and p.m. thing bugs me. It’s either noon or midnight.

Not-so-deep thoughts on this week’s 24:

Last Lost of the month

Normally, I’d be pissed about there not being a new Lost next week. But considering Alias is returning for its end run, I’m not too worried.

Job Fair- CTU Style

With the recent revelation that FOX is giving a few more seasons/days to 24, and the fact that the show kills about a character an hour, it’s pretty much certain the show is going to introduce new characters in future years.

Guess he should have stayed in the bank.

In honor of First Lady Martha Logan, last Friday was declared National Cleavage Day. Okay, it was in South Africa and it has nothing to do with 24, but I need to attact the other weirdos somehow.

Thoughts on 11:00-midnight:

She blinded me. With Science!

For Sale: A pair of crutches

I can walk again without the assistance of crutches.

I still have my fresh new kick, but only for another week.

I have this pair of crutches, lightly used, set for someone who’s 6’3″ (or so) and I have no idea what to do with them.

I’ll probably throw them in a closet and forget about them.
