Bottle parties, Lazy days and Halloween

Halloween has come and will go with just a blip on my radar this year. I did hit the town on the weekend, just didn't dress up for anything. Friday was Happy bday Saf, Round 2. Saturday was bottle party, bottle party. Sunday was chillin with Doug n lisa till 2 a.m. Monday was day off. Read a book. Brimstone. I liked it. I should read the rest by those two authors. In closing, a Halloween costume recap: all the halloween costumes i can remember wearing.

Peter pan, Court Jester, Hawaiian Girl (complete with grass skirt and coconut bra), Vampire, Mummy, Girl-in-a-red-dress, an old man (when i was about 11).

And that's all I can remember really. Yeah. Halloween isn't much of a big deal here. I mean, there are a few parties, but no one trick-or-treats as kids or anything like that. The bulk of those costumes were in college.

Finally, the face!

Well, there you have it, my gorgeous face. Aren't I beautiful? Feel free to leave comments of praise and adoration.

The movie blitz with Natz has ended 1 movie short. Haven was quite mediocre, though worth watching, once. A twisted tale of island life with a nicely written (2nd half of it anyway) script. Twas just a tad too slow is all. The Departed was excellent. Go out and buy the DVD as soon as it becomes available. It was very like a Japanese movie Gunt made me watch once. I wish i remembered the name of it. Shall have to email the lad and see if he remembers.

MIDD, BS, TANGA

Well, I missed a MIDD homecoming. Most unfortunate. From all reports, the Kappa troops were valiant in their war against sobriety and this General can rest secure in the knowledge that the battle was decisively won. I've been doing my best on the third-world front, but with only a few good men, it is slow going. The trenches extend in inches rather than miles.

On a related note, I went back to bible study, two weeks running. Will miss this week due to work/movie commitments (Movie blitz with Natz, three movies, three days, Haven, The Departed and something else, I forget). Serial boredom continues by weekday, weekends continue to be pretty off the hook. This last one consisted of moutain-top madness, and the now almost-standard late night 'swim'.

Oh, I meant to say something about this last time, but I forgot. Check out Tanga. I originally found them in my diurnal effort to amuse myself at work. They were having a pre-launch promotional gag in that they were running a puzzle a day for a month. Mysterious "tanga points" were given out based on the (their) percieved difficulty level of the puzzle, and a board game was given away every day to a random solver. Now, they've launched. They still have the daily puzzles, and the revealed purpose of the website is a deal a day. Some interesting stuff so far. But the best reason to check em out is the write-ups. Those guys are hilarious. The product description is ALWAYS fun and most days the blogs are great too. Tanga. Check it, boomark it, and keep going back to it.

Backup

Before my friends attack me for my narcissistic blog title, I would like to point out a few things.

1. Blogs by definition SCREAM narcissim. Here we all are publishing idle thoughts to an entirely uncaring global community. The driving force is clearly a selfish desire to be heard (not that anyone is listening). So we post, read our own posts, and in so doing, convince ourselves that our voices are out there. Ofcourse, comments from friends help to bolster this idea and add to the longevity of our blog-doms.
2. I do have a gorgeous face. If i can figure out how to post a pic, I'll put it up here for the world to see.
3. I blame Chris Janette. The conversation, which may offend my conservative christian friends, is sadly typical of his demented mind. I myself merely stoop to his level in an effort to be understood by him. ("Backup", for those of you not in the immediate loop, is a 3.5 legged jamaican crocodile, that lives in Alligator Hole, Clarendon, Jamaica. KDR is a fraternity to which we both belong.)
