Office Space
I’m watching Office Space on Comedy Central. There’s a scene where the boss wants the guy to work on the weekend and calls and keeps leaving messages on his machine. That’s my day. *sigh*

He called AGAIN! Argh! I let the machine get it. Why does he keep calling? I don’t want to talk about work on a Sunday…especially not around Noon time. Doesn’t this guy watch football, go to church, have brunch, read the Sunday paper, or do any of the other traditional Sunday activities? Since when did […]

Greg’s boss called me at 11:45am this morning. …on a Sunday. Doesn’t this guy have anything better to do than bother me? Fortunately, I checked the Caller ID and chose to let the machine get it. He just wants to set up a time to meet tomorrow. Why doesn’t he send e-mail like the rest […]

There’s a smoke alarm around here somewhere with a dead battery. Every couple minutes I’ll hear a quick beep. I’ve got to find it and yank the battery before it drives me insane. …and two weeks ago I yanked the battery from one of the smoke alarms that was on a shelf in the basement. […]

I went to F1 Boston with Charlie and his friend Tim today. Greg was supposed to go, but he apparently slept in and refused to answer his cell phone. Anyway, at F1 Boston, people race suped-up go-karts around one of two tracks for 15 minute races. Everyone wears racing suits and helmets. It’s quite cool, […]

Okay, I was bored so I signed up and started a blog. I know this will probably go nowhere and in two weeks I’ll probably stop updating it, but whatever. Here it is. Now quit bugging me about it. NOTE: This is the first entry I made on a blog hosted elsewhere (pre-LiveJournal) in 2001. […]

On March 25, 2000 at 11am, my doorbell rang. It was FedEx with a package I had to sign for. I opened it up and found an About.com towel, canvas bag, T-shirt, and hat. …then I went back to bed. Later that weekend, I got a call from Matt, our fearless leader from RivalWorks, with […]

No MST3K stuff today. Everything closed down at 11am and people headed home. As for me, I met my cousin Jim, in the lobby of the Hilton and went with him for the afternoon. He’s a graduate student at the University of Minnesota. After eating at Key’s, I got the full tour of the animal […]

After getting up bright and early, I headed over to the Convention Center to kick Mike’s ass at Doom. Arriving really early, I headed over to watch Bridget and Mary Jo load a horde of MSTies onto a bus bound for the Mall of America. The winners of “Shop Ahoy” were bound to have a […]

WOW! What word could better describe this day? I dunno. Wow! I started out the day by heading over to the Question and Answer session an hour early. Before the cast of MST3K started answering questions, they drew winners for the “Shop Ahoy!” drawing. One MSTie entered herself many times, so they threw her off the […]
