Hey, Mike: Please get better soon, because your Sydney show is coming up and my tickets are en route! Love, your lifelong fan Kris. (PS – Please don’t wear one of those weird leisure suits for the concert.)

RSVP, please. I know it’s redundant.
Busy, busy, busy, work work work. Remind me to tell you about my new (non-) favorite customer sometime soon, the one I have dubbed “Titsiana Booberini.” *shudder* Oh, and a final plea for RSVPs from the reception invitees. If you don’t come to the party, you don’t get to see the way cool photo album I’ve been slaving over…
Yeah, okay, that was a lame bribe. How about free beer?

From Microsoft: A parent’s guide to computer slang. As John Gruber puts is, this is so square it’s hilarious. Now I’m off to eat some |-|4/\/\.

Booklist 2005 Project
I bought a couple new books yesterday: The Character of Cats and Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers. I’ve been reading a lot of non-fiction lately. I used to devour novels but anymore I just don’t trust my judgment as to what’s good. So I was intrigued by this post at defective yeti. He’s basically asking his readers to recommend books and promising to read them this year. Sounds like a pretty good idea to me. Most of the books I get are ones I see recommended on blogs anyway. Therefore I’m asking you guys to help me out. What should I read? There’s no requirement that it be new, but I’d prefer fiction over non-fiction (since I have no trouble picking those out myself). Bonus points for unusual stuff like graphic novels. I promise to post at least something about every book as I finish it. So, whaddaya got?

I Heart Knitting.
So… I went to the knitting thing tonight. It was a bit sad, really. Better Homes & Gardens are going to be talking about pub knitting like it’s this big, huge movement, when in reality there were a total of five of us there. (Granted, it was short notice.) We ended up packing the room with half the production staff, so consequently I spent the whole time stuck in the corner trying to teach the makeup guy how to do garter stitch. And I went to all that trouble to make a special shirt…
<And yeah, that’s my sheep.

Me and the Dell Dude
I was going through some pictures last night when I found this awesome one of me at a cast party in college. And who is that with his arm wrapped around me? Rob “Dell Dude” Sudduth. Oh yeah. Me partyin’ up with the cute Dell guy. I told you! -
Boobs.
After curry, three glasses of wine, and the latest episode of The O.C.
Me: …So, I thought that the accepted psychological basis for heterosexual man’s preoccupation with lesbianism was that they got to watch naked women without the presence of a man to make them feel all gay and stuff.
Snook: Nahhh, for me it’s just because there’s twice as much boobies.
Me: [after shooting wine through my nose] Dude! Can I put that on my website?
Him: Whatever… -
Knitting on TV!
Attention Sydney knitters! I’ve just gotten word from Meg that the Sydney Stitch N Bitch is going to be filmed by Better Homes & Gardens for an upcoming show! The only problem is that the presenter’s schedule means they need to film the spot… tomorrow night. We need to pack Hart’s Pub with as many knitters and crocheters as we can get. If you can hold a pair of needles, we want you there. It starts at 5:00 pm (which is a crap time, I know). Details and a map are available on the website. Hope to see you there!

Japanese light sabre
Huh? I was just reading this BBC news story about the recent Japan-North Korea World Cup qualifier when the accompanying photograph caught my eye. Is that security guy carring a light sabre?? Now that’s a novel way to keep soccer hooligans in line.
