  • 17:12 Busted out with A9s as usual. Why don't I just fold that hand on sight at this point? Like, even from the big blind? #

  • 07:44 @g33kgrrl I'm currently reading 3 other books on my Kindle and have to research my Turkey trip, so probably won't get to it before January. #

So, should you happen to read the Fortean Times, the current number (257?) contains my brief review of Simon Young's The Celtic Revolution. Executive summary: OK, but not great.

  • 03:03 Apparently my fifth Amazon anniversary present is a disabled badge; an "are you *sure* you want to keep working here" sanity check, perhaps? #

You know, it's pages like this that make me glad that I listened to that friendly camel who told me about the Internet back in 1890.

  • 11:46 Just passed a dude who hopped in the air, pointed, and exclaimed "Chrome bag!" when he saw mine. #
  • 11:51 It's trippy to be reading a book on the Kindle phone app, get home and turn on my Kindle, and be precisely where I left off. #

They're not necessarily my best shots of the year, but they are the shots I hold near and dear for whatever reason. Enjoy.

October 2009 (This is a stand-in only; I am contractually unable to show you my real favorite photo from this month. I took it, but signed the rights over to a friend. It's a naked lady photo, so tough luck for you, pal.)


DSC_0089

November 2009. And I'm still working on getting that December shot.

By the way, if you like these photos or any other photos in my Flickr stream, I'll sell you an 8x10 print for $10. Three shots for $25. I need to raise money so I can go to Las Vegas to perform a monologue, which on its face sounds like such a crock of shit that it certainly must be true. Anyhow, send me a note if you want a print or three.*

*(I can't sell any rollergirl shots. If you're a rollergirl and want a print, contact me and we'll make an arrangement that covers the cost of materials only.)

  • 08:00 In 3 days I've already finished my first book on the Kindle, scratched the screen (thanks Aer Lingus), and ++like it vs. a paper book. #
  • 09:58 @krisis I have not only heard of The Long Winters, but I have in fact also seen them live. Probably like 8 years ago, no less. ;-) #
