  • When You Wish Upon A Yule

    Since the subject seems to have come up lately:

    • Thinkgeek Wishlist
    • Amazon Wishlist (I know, there are valid reasons not to patronize Amazon. You’re not even remotely required to buy anything from them, mind you, but it’s the only place I have access to all of the music, books and videos I want all in one storefront, so that’s where I keep the wishlist.)
    • Funagain Games Wishlist

    This entry may be updated if I find somewhere else that I should have made a list… and/or checked it twice…

  • Why, I oughtta… oh.

    So, at about one-thirty in the morning, a couple of cars pulled up right outside my window. One of them made a loud noise, and they were putting on an obnoxious light show complete with blinding white strobes. They were camped out on the street for a solid hour, blocking the driveway (to the chagrin of one of our neighbors who keep strange hours) and generally keeping me awake.

    I should’ve called the cops… OH WAIT.

    (Two Portland Police cars, one white Mustang, and eventually a tow truck for the Mustang since its driver was eventually stuffed into the back of a police car. If the one cruiser had simply toned down the rock-concert lighting effects I might’ve been able to get back to sleep. Argh.)
