Small World

August 6th, 2007 · 6 Comments · Favourites, internet, life, random thoughts

At the risk of making the-most-annoying-song-in-the-world be stuck in your heads for the next 2 weeks, it’s a fucking small world, after all.
Way way back in time (2 years ago) when I proposed to Christa, I bought the domain mattandchrista.com. I had given the name a lot of thought, and conducted weeks of extensive market [...]

“My knees are hitting the wall. Move over, you’re taking up too much of the bed.”

Sometimes it’s the little things that piss me off

May 10th, 2007 · 3 Comments · How To Annoy Me, random thoughts, work

I need to write a nasty letter to the vending machine company here at work. They always seem to put the Butterfinger bars so high up in the machine that when the machine drops the them to vend, the candy bars inevitably break.
That’s almost as good as the time they put the pop-tarts all the [...]

Most of you probably won’t care, but yesterday the planets were in alignment & all the laws of quantum physics were broken; I managed to change the oil & degunk the lawn mower carburetor to get it started after winter storage… IN ONE PULL!

I’m a productive slob. No really!

A not so interesting look at my search habits

March 16th, 2007 · 1 Comment · geekdom, internet, random thoughts, technology, whatever, work

While researching something at work this afternoon with the Google, I happened to pull of a list of my recent searches and was quite amused.

The technical searches aren’t that odd to me, but “bg’s reunite”, “haters”, all the food searches, and “vermont ‘red state’” look funny to me in that list.
Oh and trogdor.
What the heck [...]

Because to a cat you are really only temporary entertainment

January 27th, 2007 · No Comments · random thoughts, the kids

I had my laptop out in my lap this morning sitting in my chair with my feet up. Bailey decided that he should be in my lap instead, so I shutdown and closed the laptop to give him the personal time he requested, and he bolted not 2 seconds later.

If you are an overweight biker who’s gut spills over the belt and rides on the seat with you, please do not go shirtless; i had been enjoying my lunch perfectly well until you made me sick to my stomache.
