Josephine

11:46am CST Saturday 22 February 2003

Wow. Josephine just described all the verb tenses she knows in French.

Last night we all piled into Janette's bed to watch a movie. I fell asleep in about 40 seconds, according to them when I told them the last thing I saw.

I had a dream that I ended up next to Josephine and we were yammering, but I was surprised that I could possibly have somehow shifted to the other side of the bed and thought this must be a dream, but I looked around and everything looked correct. Including the wall hanging (that does not exist above Janette's bed).

1:30pm

We three are now seeking Sean and his ultimate peeps. It's taken us a while; they seem to have changed fields a couple times. I dunno exactly.

We've just found their field.

1:43pm

As in, we just found the field where everyone had started, but Sean's team was moved to a different set of fields due to rain.

3:45pm

We got to see their last game. Sean's team won with at hard-cap 9 to 8.

It was a pretty close and intense game; I enjoyed it.

Josephine is becoming a gas pumping expert. This is her second time to do it. Sean is impatiently hurried to get to see his friends playing in the finals.

On the way to see Grosse Pointe Blanke (I forget which, if any of these have Es on the end) Josephine was expressing a bit of cynisim at the state of US and world politics. I can't really blame her; things seem pretty fucked up.

On the way to Sean's Ultimate game, while we were mostly lost (with bad directions, not a bad driver) a woman was all honking at us, for no apparent reason. She looked over, but didn't gesture like "hey your car is on fire" or "you have three flat tires" or "you cut me off you bitch," but just had a blank look like we should know wtf she meant.

old rallies

11:54pm CST Saturday 22 February 2003

I've been digging back through my old 1997 entries, converting them from static index format to a format that can be used with my journal.pl script. In the process, I have moved the 1997 rally reviews from the SWD YRUU site on geocities to here. The SWD YRUU site seems to be finished; it lasted a few years and now seems that no one is updating it. So I want to get the reviews off it before they vanish if the username is swallowed up by yahoo. And before I roll out to Japan I'd like to get my site stabilized, whatever the hell that means.

popcorn

11:29pm CST Saturday 22 February 2003

Yesterday Janette made popcorn and I was all, "remember that scene is Grosse Point Blank at the very end where the guy ran out of bullets and is going to buy some and the other guy is like okay for ten thousand dollars and he's all okay and then the good guy throws a TV on the head of the badguy just as he says 'Popcorn!'"

And Josephine is all "yeah. Oh, Grosse Point Blank is playing tonight and tomorrow night at midnight."

So we're going.

12:11am

Met two peeps whose names I didn't get because the cat up front was giving away door prizes.

David and Dana are behind us. HI!!

Dana noticed that emacs has two "TOOLS" menus on the top bar and I noticed that the second Tools menu has two Services items on it.

"What are those crazy Mac people thinking?" wonders Dana.

Cyndi Lauper onscreen before the movie: "HI, this is my new video."

"If by 'new' you mean...."

Oh my lord we are laughing our asses off at this vdeo of True Colors by Cyndi Lauper. Holy shit this is hilarious!!

What are those crazy 80s people thinking?

"Wike a waaainn--bow..."

2:31am
