Coffee and Code

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One looks to the other and says, 'This taste funny to you?'

I've been fighting sleep every single day this week, because every time I visit my parents in Wyoming, my caffeine threshold rises quite a bit (due to the fact that they drink, like, 5 pots of coffee a day). Then, upon returning home, I have to let my body readjust to my slightly more moderate level of caffeine consumption.

Saw Transformers on Monday at the new theater in Santa Fe (name slips me right now; way down on Zafarano street at the end of Cerrillos Road). Overall, the movie kicked ass because 1.) It was about the transformers and 2.) There were enough special effects eye candy to make me cream my proverbial design-happy jeans. I mean, some of the sub-plots and, let's face it, the romantic plot part of the movie were pretty weak. This doesn't mean shit, though, when you see a bunch of Transformers (and Decepticons) lay waste to hoover dam, some freeways and a whole city. That was cool.

There was a scene at the end when the leading human characters were making out on Bumblebee's hood. Is this considered group sex? I dunno.

OK, I gots ta go cook some hamburgers now. Later, people!

I took this last week off work. It was frickin' awesome. I feel kinda lazy, though: I spent the entire week off playing playstation and eating out. Not to mention sleeping in and getting drunk in the middle of the day. Whee! It's fun to grill drunk in your pajamas!

I had a bachelor's thanksgiving this year! Might sound depressing, but I had a pretty good time. Watched Donnie Darko (for what must the 50th time or so), drank beer, and, sneering in the face of hallowed holiday tradition, I opted for steak and beer instead of turkey. I grilled the steak and served it smothered in sauteed mushrooms and onions.

Hope everyone had a good holiday! I wish I could extend mine for a couple more days!
