What the hell happened over at iltrmb today? Perfect storm, it seems. At least for them, it was.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:27 (fourteen years ago) link

i don't know - i don't think it's related to what happened on 77.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:29 (fourteen years ago) link

What happened on 77?

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:32 (fourteen years ago) link

i will email you.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:33 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh, man, I'm leaving on this sort of date in less than an hour and I should finish some homework. I like this girl - she's cute, I like the music she makes, but we don't seem to have any chemistry, and so I hope tonight is just a fun night and there's no pressure.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:41 (fourteen years ago) link

is this a new girl or one you've mentioned before?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:42 (fourteen years ago) link

From gamesetwatch: UK Gov't, Area/Code Launch Street Safety MMO [massively multiplayer online game]

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:43 (fourteen years ago) link

One I've mentioned before, I'm sure, one that lives downtown with Katie.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:43 (fourteen years ago) link

what kinda music does she do?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:45 (fourteen years ago) link

She sings and plays guitar, sometimes with this guy Sam. It's sort of ramshackle diy pop.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:46 (fourteen years ago) link

Sam will play drums, and then sometimes they switch. I think Sam does that in all of his bands.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:47 (fourteen years ago) link

i emailed you about that thing.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:47 (fourteen years ago) link

You mean you put a note in one of those pneumatic tubes like at the bank and it's working its way toward me.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:49 (fourteen years ago) link

Making a shwooooo sound.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:49 (fourteen years ago) link

yes - i was fascinated by those pneumatic tubes as a kid.

one of my friends suggested i casually hook up with some guy as a way of getting over my ex. i said that i didn't think i'd do that very well.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:50 (fourteen years ago) link

Susie says that someone she describes as a good conversationalist was describing that map to her.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:50 (fourteen years ago) link

Haha. Easier said than done.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:51 (fourteen years ago) link

I mean, you could always hook up with someone who would make you feel icky later.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:51 (fourteen years ago) link

we're not supposed to discuss that map, or discuss discussion of that map.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:52 (fourteen years ago) link

Really? I hadn't heard that.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:52 (fourteen years ago) link

Are there Capri Motels in Florida?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:53 (fourteen years ago) link

That sounds retarded. And not very clear, either. I didn't know people were more uptight over there than over here. It sort of doesn't make sense.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:54 (fourteen years ago) link

I don't know about Capri Motels. There are all kinds of motels, especially by beaches.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:54 (fourteen years ago) link

what does your waist look like

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:55 (fourteen years ago) link

I've been wanting to do this project for a while about Capri Motels - a photo + fiction project that involves going to and staying in a variety of Capri Motels. It's mainly because the name is really evocative of a certain era, and it's one of those names that isn't straightforwardly descriptive.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:56 (fourteen years ago) link

There are a lot of Capri Motels in California.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:57 (fourteen years ago) link

Florida seemed like another place where there would be a lot of Capri Motels.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:57 (fourteen years ago) link

Just saw the admin log. What's up? You don't think there's water on the moon?

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 21:59 (fourteen years ago) link

i wanted to know why there was no vitamin water on the moon.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:00 (fourteen years ago) link

Deleting unused users and clearing old suggest bans

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:00 (fourteen years ago) link

Why? There are minerals already in the water from all of the moondust.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:01 (fourteen years ago) link

This, like duckbutts or whatever - is the payoff so great? I don't know.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:01 (fourteen years ago) link

the moon kinda bores me actually.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:01 (fourteen years ago) link

Eff homework. I'll do it at midnight. Thank goodness the semester is winding down, because I have no stamina for this bs.

I think I'll spend the next twenty minutes eating and dressing.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:02 (fourteen years ago) link

should i go to Florida and take pictures of Capri motels?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:03 (fourteen years ago) link

Haha. Only if you've got the money to burn.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:03 (fourteen years ago) link

i haven't had a vacation in a decade. you do know the subtext of what i'm asking?

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:04 (fourteen years ago) link

Yeah.

Remember that project I was working on? I solved a few minor problems, so I can move forward a bit.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:05 (fourteen years ago) link

that's good. i have to go to the bank where there are no longer pneumatic tubes, but tvs that show the same 5 minutes of news headlines over and over again.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:06 (fourteen years ago) link

We went to the Loving Hut, which shows the same world peace news feed over and over, I think. It's a little cult-y, but in a refreshing way.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:09 (fourteen years ago) link

The pharmacy last night was showing Ralph Reed, Anderson Cooper, and James Carville discussing Sarah Palin.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:17 (fourteen years ago) link

There appear to be at least 5 Capri Motels in Florida.

sarahel, Thursday, 19 November 2009 22:56 (fourteen years ago) link

The Loving Hut had a talking bee, but mostly it looked like a very busy CNBC.

I think there are two Capri Motels. The others have Capri in their names.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 23:41 (fourteen years ago) link

That girl had to work on her paper some more. I was relieved, to be honest. Katie and I talked for about an hour about her boyfriend. He's not communicating so well.

bamcquern, Thursday, 19 November 2009 23:42 (fourteen years ago) link

I was wondering what of that story was fictional and what was based on reality.

sarahel, Friday, 20 November 2009 00:00 (fourteen years ago) link

All fictional except for superficial stuff.

bamcquern, Friday, 20 November 2009 00:04 (fourteen years ago) link

should we have our own test thread on this board?

sarahel, Friday, 20 November 2009 00:05 (fourteen years ago) link

board descripton changed
