Rice Boy is finished, and you all need to go read it immediately.

I'm not kidding. You can thank me later.

I GOT TOM WAITS TICKETS

I SAID FUCK YEAH

I just want to say that the new Macross TV series is pretty great so far, and if you are or were a Macross or Robotech fan, you should probably check it out.

BECAUSE OF HOLY SHIT

( Highlights so far )

ETA: Here's the op.

Based on the fun we had coming up with a show last night, I'm prepared to call Primetime Adventures the best 12 bucks I've ever spent on a roleplaying game.

Suddenly, fanfiction!

Haters can suck it, etc.

( I like Sokka. Vague spoilers through 312 or something, whatever, anybody who cares has seen it all anyway. )

I tried to think of one for Suki but nothing came to mind. Maybe next time.

I move that we as a generation excise the word "hipster" from our vocabulary.

Oh, and if you call me a hipster in the comments of this post, we're not friends anymore.

I don't expect anybody else to get this icon, but I get it, and I think it is hilarious.

Look, I'm going to try to go, so I might as well get this out there sooner rather than later: Is anybody else going to go? Can we pool our meager resources? I have it on some kind of authority that I am not creepy, though this has not been verified by a reputable sanctioning body in a while. Creepiness may have... crept in.

I am even (!) open to that great adventure, the Road Trip, though it's a long-ass way from Houston to San Diego.

Let's talk.

13:16 I wish there you could use Google maps for Bas-Lag. I guess the Scar's hideous, improbable geology represents more than a simple IT problem. #

19:13 A little annoyed that Matt Treyvaud is a better me than I am: tinyurl.com/2nn5nb #

Simo Häyhä, the "White Death."

10:04 Braved the cold to ride over to the polls and vote. No real lines. Hands kept warm by the HOBO MITTS OF DEMOCRACY. (Thanks, Lexi!) #

19:22 Caucusing. Madness abounds. #

13:27 Whenever I come across a neat new vocabulary word, I'm concerned that my source for it is insufficiently hip, and that I will be found out. #

14:19 D&D in like five minutes. Is Eberron less geeky than standard D&D, or more? #

... it's full of rides!

It's going to be a good spring.

22:27 Just like Nada Surf leads back to Yoka, Sufjan Stevens takes me right back to Punahou. Jesus, why do I HAVE this music? #

12:33 I love the Japanese verb for texting: 打つ. It's so combative. Like I'm really knocking one out of the park with each incisive keypress. #

Today's early Starbucks closure reminds me of a classic Onion piece.

That is all.

17:12 5cm per Second is fucking brilliant, but I can't shake the feeling that only people who have lived in the Japanese countryside will get it. #

22:14 First update from new phone. May be a consumer whore. May additionaly not care. #

13:48 Back from 20? 30? mile bike ride. Feel utterly great. Must do this more often. #

17:14 Seriously considering a career as an Adriatic seaplane mercenary. Yeah, I just watched Porco Rosso. What of it? #

21:46 "Andalusia" is one of my favorite words. Just say it. "An-da-LOOS-ee-ah." Phonetic delectability, is it not? #
