Random Bits

I wrote this-week-in-blogging off a few days ago; but rather than posting exhaustive-ottomottopea again, here's some random thoughts on my mind for February the 13th, 2009:

• It's snowing again... bloody miserable... is this London? (A: No. Des Moines' culture is put in place by a group of city planners who apparently like a lot of stuff, but don't really love anything).
  
• Pitchers and catchers report today. I'm boning up (did this phrase come from a dude who instead of studying at his girlfriend's, started "boning up" on her?) on my knowledge of other teams for my return to fantasy baseball management. If I were the manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, my opening day line-up would be: Nate McClouth (CF), Jack Wilson (SS), Craig Monroe (LF), Ryan Doumit (C), Adam LaRoche (1B), Eric Hinske (RF) Andy LaRoche (3B), Ian Snell (P), Freddy Sanchez (2B). I doubt it'll look like that...
• I wish I could find last night's premiere of "Delocated" to stream online.
• Important Things w/ Demetri Martin was as good as I suspected it'd be. I had no expectations. I suspect that I probably should've used expected in the first instance. Oh well.
• The College Humor Show wasn't too bad... actually, I may have enjoyed it. < /backhanded-praise >
• Still haven't seen How's Your News? I don't think I'll care for it... but maybe I'll watch it every once and a while, if you pay me... like a babysitter.
• What to do for lunch today? I have to go out and make a car payment. Maybe I'll get some Arby's on the way back? Damn. Everything good at Arby's is beef or ham on a chicken sandwich... maybe I'll get some China.
• I have three scripts to type up. That's better than no scripts, but I should probably write a couple more. Short Shorts 2009.
• I bought my Louis CK ticket. I'm considering also buying a ticket to see Ben Folds next month. They went on sale two hours ago... maybe they're sold out now? Eh.
• JB was just online and then off! I bet he'd eat China with me... if he had a long enough brake from the Home & Gardens expo... lawl.
• I just made what I believe to be a pretty killer Robin Williams reference on facebook.
• I'm considering only attempting to blog on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The 30 visits I've had this week aren't very encouraging.
  

UNBLOG'ABLE THINGS ON MY MIND:

• Bandit Burrito or Shangri-La or Hong Kong or Hu Hot?
• Why was I at a Denver multi-plex, connected to the Bronco's football stadium in my dream last night?
• Why was the stadium surrounded by a field of interconnected trampolines!?!
• Was the little boy who fell off actually me?
• It's really cold outside.
• A water main blew a few blocks from my house this morning. The Des Moines Register informed me via Twitter, when I woke up at 11am.
• Twitter is my favorite.
• @greggrunberg is a New Jersey Informant in Baseketball. Lawl.
• @steveagee is on the Sarah Silverman Program. Season One of which, I purchased last week for $7.50.
• Why aren't @DougBenson and @arjbarker following each other? They were in the Marijuanalogs together. Did they have a skrilla squabble?
  
• @arjbarker was also in Super High Me.
• Zach Galifianakis referred to the UCB guys as "a cult" in Super High Me.
  
• Zach Galifianakis doesn't have a twitter yet (to my knowledge).
• I'm pretty sure I'll be taking a vacation to Los Angeles, CA in April. Round trip airfare is only $285.
• I've never flown before and the idea kinda terrifies me.
• I hope to visit on a Friday when @DougBenson is recording an "I Love Movies" Podcast.
• If I get ahold of Sir, we'll go to Hong Kong or @BanditBurrito.
• If I get ahold of JB, we'll go to Shangri-La or Burger King.
• I really don't want Burger King.
• I'm pretty psyched that the Whitest Kids U Know (@WKUK) have a movie coming out in March. It is entitled "Miss March" and looks like my cup o' tea.
• I hear that "Mystery Team" is written and directed by the guy who made the infamous "Bro Rape" video.
• Both are indie comedies that aren't likely to show @FleurCinema.
• The multi-plex in my dream was named "The Fleur."
• It featured washing machines in the back row of the auditorium's second level seating.
• That's two weird theater dreams in one week.
• Still only one dream featuring Swamp Thing though...
• Time to make lunch happen.
• I need to go pay a bill too... ugh.
