Yay, it's almost lunch! I feel snoozy.

For me, I can only say that the pictures were a disappointment.

Yes, I know, but they are work-safe. Trust me, I nearly went another way.

Here's a quick health insurance story (a little shout out to TTWIS pt 11):

I was called into my boss's office a little earlier this morning. He told me my health insurance has been activated. I say, "Thank you, yes, I received my card in the mail." Then he looks down at his paperwork and says, "Oh my god! Do you realize how much we're paying for your health insurance!?" Then he proceeds to calculate how much it will cost the company for me to have health ins. for just one year. I guess he just wanted me to realize how much more appreciative I should be?!

Sarah McLusky (coco), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:33 (twenty-one years ago)

However, in order to appease the masses, I will post this link, which I assure you, unless you work in the San Fernando Valley, is not work safe.

Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:43 (twenty-one years ago)

And thus the Jeanne/Luna wars began. (But they were over shortly, thanks to alcohol and mutual appreciation.)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Over? No, I think we should get together and have summit meetings. Yeah.

luna (luna.c), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I think I know what Ned means by "mutual appreciation." Good thinking, dude.

Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Does this mean no summit meeting?

luna (luna.c), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I am an innocent in this matter. Er.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:48 (twenty-one years ago)

I submit to your summit.

Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Totally unrelated -

I feel suddenly moody. Do you ever start to think about one horrible thing (ie: My grandmother being dead) and then start freaking out about everything (ie: When/Where will I buy sandwich bags? I can't forget to put the trash out when I get home. I really should practice guitar more...)...?

That's cute, kingfish. My sister just announced she plans to get a puppy in the fall and I'm already excited. :)

Sarah McLusky (coco), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Yay! I've always wanted to have a summit meeting. I propose somewhere in the Caribbean as a neutral summit meeting place.

luna (luna.c), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 17:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Sarah, your boss sounds kinda fucked.

I'm in a weird mood today. Have been skipping school to look for another job (makes sense huh?) and am dreading the though of facing my prinicpal. Orbit's given me a lot of things to think about and I'm simutaneously redesigning my site and stitching a Tiki pillow.

Glad yr all good.

What's a Tiki pillow, Sam? Does it have a Hawaii theme?

My flower of choice for the day is the anemone. I want a big bouqet of them.

No boobs though.

I've got 'em (uh, not the flowers). They make for a nice resting place when Pepper wants to take a nap.

Sarah McLusky (coco), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:16 (twenty-one years ago)

I thought those only grew underwater?

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Um, I don't know why they share a name, but they do.

Sarah McLusky (coco), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:38 (twenty-one years ago)

actually I think the other one is formally known as Sea Anemone. Like a Sea Horse doesn't look much like a horse horse.

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Tuesday, 20 April 2004 18:40 (twenty-one years ago)

There are horses that live in the sea?!
Are there sea people too?

When I was little, I was really intrigued by the idea of an underwater village.

Nope.

those sea monkeys are naked, hee hee.

Naked and neutered, it seems...although no, wait, those tails are carefully placed.

Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 30 April 2004 13:42 (twenty-one years ago)

a dude was killed in an apartment across the courtyard from me last year. after an evening of the crime scene unit and homocide cops milling around our complex my friend and I watched them bring the body out in its bodybag. . a foot was dangling out of the bottom.

A couple of days later his mattress appeared next to the dumpster, bound together by electrical cords. A heavy thunderstorm ensued and the binding split open. For several days we had to drive by the blood-soaked mattress going in and out of the parking lot.

The kids are watching the simpsons and playing hello kitty uno. i have a headache.

Euw, I am grateful this does not really happen in the street i live in. Not far away though admittedly!

Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 30 April 2004 13:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Official police word (sometimes working at a newspaper is good) is that it was just a "big punch-out" but it must have been pretty brutal for them to be spending so much time collecting evidence. The dude may have died in the hospital.

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 13:48 (twenty-one years ago)

awwww. . .

when my brother performed on Monday he announced that if anyone was serious about audtioning for him (rapping) to give their numbers to me. He told them he wasn't talking about anyone who thought it would be cool to be a rapper but only people who were serious, had rhymes, and were willing to work hard.

One girl I had last year, who has some good stuff, told me she was interested but we had already discussed having her rap for my bro. Just now this kiddo who I don't know walks in, really shy, and shoves a paper in my hand. It was labeled "to romi0-No-E" and listed the names and numbers of the "Iced Out Thugs" (complete with logo.) D-Money, Ace, Smooth Beast, and Lucky Charms. Aw-yeah!

so cute. . .

Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Friday, 30 April 2004 14:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Thanks awesome, Sam.

Just now during my morning break, this guy I work with said, "You know, there are lots of evil, ugly people over there in Iraq. We need to pull out our troops and just send over a hell of a lot of B52s and bomb the hell out of the whole country."
I tried to end the discussion by saying we should send the band the B52s instead.
He misunderstood and said, "Exactly, Sarah, we need to bomb the hell out of them."
*sigh*
Then he told a story about Vietnam and about shooting 'gooks.'
Then I punched him.

That's all true except for the punching him bit. Ick.

Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 30 April 2004 14:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Sarah, why is that last bit not true, huh?

Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 30 April 2004 14:40 (twenty-one years ago)

I just asked the intern if anyone from her journaalism school has ever done an interneship with that naykid nooze place. She says "no, but that's a good idea." If I ever go back to shcool for j'lism, I'm gonna apply to do my internship there!

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 14:53 (twenty-one years ago)

I think the band the B-52's would really straighten things out. Fred Schneider would bug out his eyes and be like "Heyya, kids, can't we get along? Everybody sing the rocket song!" and Kate Pierson and the other one would be like "Oooooh ahhh ooooh aahhh oooooh!" and the guitarist would play this twangy surf lick and everyone would do the twist and forget about whatever the fuck it is we're all fighting about over there. But I guess I'm just a naive sentimental fool.

NA (Nick A.), Friday, 30 April 2004 14:55 (twenty-one years ago)

I really love the B-52's. I used to piss off my old bandmates by singing the songs in a Fred Schneider voice. Has anyone else heard his solo album which includes a punk rock cover of "Lime in the Coconut"? It's pretty, um, entertaining.

NA (Nick A.), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:00 (twenty-one years ago)

If it's the same one with "There's a monster in my pants, and it does a little dance," or something like that, I have it on cassette but have somehow blanked out the "Lime in the coconut" cover.

Tep (ktepi), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:05 (twenty-one years ago)

my brother covers "monster in my pants"

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:07 (twenty-one years ago)

he usually opens his sets with it.

The Asylum Street Spankers covered 'Dance This Mess Around' on their newest album. They are an 8-piece all acoustic band which plays instruments like mandolins, fiddles, clarinets, saws, etc.

It's a great cover.

Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:14 (twenty-one years ago)

and to top the day off I get to go to City Hall and the Registry of Motor Vehicles after work today!! Yay! I Can't wait! I'd rather get my nuts stomped on by an elephant than go to the RMV.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:28 (twenty-one years ago)

If it's the same one with "There's a monster in my pants, and it does a little dance," or something like that, I have it on cassette but have somehow blanked out the "Lime in the coconut" cover.

It's not the same record. He has two solo albums.

The second one (with "Coconut" on it) is well worth seeking out and hearing if you are a Fred/B-52s fan at all. Albini produced it, and the bands backing Fred up are Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, Six Finger Satellite, and another outfit called Deadly Cupcake which is Russell Simins, Rick Sims and Tom Zaluckyj (who was the bassist for Tar). Albini produced it.

You'd think that Fred singing over heavy rock would sound like a gimmick, but it works surprisingly well. I've loaned that album to just about every friend I have who hasn't heard it. In fact, Donut Bitch has my copy at the moment.

martin m. (mushrush), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:32 (twenty-one years ago)

that can be arranged...

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I must be tired today... Albini's having produced Just Fred is hardly important enough to have mentioned twice.

Funny, I don't feel tired.

martin m. (mushrush), Friday, 30 April 2004 15:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Some of you may have read this on LJ, but I'm posting it here too cause I need comfort and I'm creeped out.

I just fucking got stalked.

I made a post on craig's list a few months ago and some guy emailed me because he thought it was funny, which of course, appealed to my vanity, so I emailed him back and we've been emailing back and forth with the occasional phone call (two - one of which was business related), and all of a sudden yesterday afternoon, completely out of nowhere, he showed up at my office with a 'delivery' for me.

E. told him to wait in the front, but he followed him back to the copy room and E. said 'A? you have a delivery' and I turned around and saw it was this guy (whom I'd seen a picture of, but he hadn't seen one of me) and I tried to play it off like I wasn't me, and said 'oh, I think she was in the back,' and I walked off to 'try and find her' and he followed me. I didn't know what to do, so I said 'oh she must have gone down to the storage room', and he went to wait up at the front.

I had K. go out through the side door, then walk in and say 'have you been helped?' and then when he said he was waiting for me, she said I'd already gone home for the day, could she tell me he'd stopped by? no, he'll come back tomorrow.

Fuck me. I never gave him my work address (admittedly not hard to get if you have my number, but still) nor invited him to see me. I've refused all his invitations to go out and told him I was involved and that I wasn't interested in being more than his friend.

I dunno - you don't just show up at someone's work. If they work in a restaurant or bookstore or somewhere you might go anyway, sure, ok, that's one thing, but to find out someone's work address based on a phone number and then show up at an office building - that's crazy.

luna (luna.c), Friday, 30 April 2004 16:58 (twenty-one years ago)

that sucks, Luna. Do you think emailing him and nicely saying "back the fuck off" would work?

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:00 (twenty-one years ago)

do you have security officers in your building that could stop him from coming in?

if not have a male in the office stop him next time and tell him he's trespassing. Maybe have a man (your b-friend) call him and say he must leave you alone.

I'm sorry honey. Don't be scared, you can deal with him.

Ask For Samantha (thatgirl), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Also, I don't know what he was trying to deliver - he didn't leave it. He had a carrier bag in his hand though - maybe a severed head?

luna (luna.c), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:04 (twenty-one years ago)

stwed rabbit?

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:05 (twenty-one years ago)

severed head

Nothing says "I love you" better. Write him and tell him you're not interested. Or have your boyfriend write him.

Michael White (Hereward), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:08 (twenty-one years ago)

luna (luna.c), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Remember this guy?

you wouldn't pester and pester me for an interview/write-up, even though I just did one on you a few months ago, and then finally when I agree, just cuz I'm
sicking of taking your calls, you have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO SAY.

Me: "So basically, you're still doing the same thing you were doing when I wrote you up three months ago?'
Rocker: "Uh, yup."
Me: "So what's the story then?"
Rocker: "I don't know, you're the journalist."

He just called me, wondering how come there was no story in the paper. I told him because I didn't write one. Oh, he says, because there's too much other stuff going on?
No, I say, because there just wasn't anything worth writing, and even though my previews are generally pretty objective, the fact that I'm writing one at all is an implied endorsement, and, uh, I just can't.
Oh, he says, okay. Are you gonna come by the show tonight?
Maybe, I lie.

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:18 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm using the British meaning of 'pissed' to parse that sentence.

oops (Oops), Friday, 30 April 2004 17:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Luna, I hope he doesn't come back. At least make sure he's not let in again, and I'd consider calling the police if he does. What are stalking laws like in the US?

So, I just got home and I walked through the crime scene and there are a few big blood splotches. Pretty grisly. They caught the guy at the scene though, and charged him with attempt murder this afternoon. The vic is in serious condition.
But the badguy's in jail, so my neighbourhood is safe again!

Huck, Friday, 30 April 2004 21:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Do you have that kind of trouble often in your 'hood?

Michael White (Hereward), Friday, 30 April 2004 21:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Mostly just people shouting stuff. I live sorta downtown, so noise comes with the territory, but this is generally thought of as a pretty safe/decent area, though I guess I'm sort of on the border of the hip n'hood and the hood.
