1) getting bobby flay burgers for dinner tonight. totally going to find out what the burger of the month is, and if it stinks? miami burger....mmmmm pressed ham....
2) 27 days until the official start of fall! things that that means? the return of pumpkin spice lattes, "cool ghoul" colored m&ms, target's always excellent halloween decorations, the dvd release of the long-delayed trick r treat, my other cousin's wedding, and a total justification of my horror obsession. plus, bug-free camping! (and no, those don't count as several different things. they count as one! go to hell!)
3) death metal. i'm listening to the south carolinian, egypt-obsessed band, nile, right at this second, and at home, in my free time, i'm watching the second season of metalocalypse, getting ready for the third and dethklok's second album.
4) the superchunk song "misfits and mistakes." whether it's the version with meatwad from aqua teen hunger force or not, it's still an amazing song. "For all the misfits, mistakes, and the others/Say you will, say you will/Fall down together like lines in your letters/Put all the random pieces together."
5) prince.
6) okay...enough of the music ones... my wife. how's that for cheesey? would it make it better if i said "my family" (i.e., my wife and my cat)? no? oh well. you can go to hell again.
7) Zornow Must Be Destroyed. He's my of-the-moment illustrator obsession. but, give me about 30 seconds and i'll come up with some more. ed repka (that's by no means ALL of his stuff. not at all). drew millward. john dyer baizley. dan mumford. i can keep going. believe me.
8) less than 50 days until the release of brütal legend. start stretching your thumbs and banging your head: ..........NOW!
9) MetalSucks.net.
10) old-school sailor jerry-style tattoos.
on a completely different note, i think my new coworker is an alien.
he keeps asking the most random and simple questions like he's never experienced anything in his life before (weird stuff about dogs, the blackout of 2003, pizza, etc., etc.), and clearly, the only answer is that he must be an alien.
also, i totally just discovered this website, and it makes me happy in my heart:
Sleevage.com. why didn't i know about this before?
