regular expression, or decaf?

2001.04.15 0.37

Seems like lots of my friends are down. Want to cheer up everyone. Want to do it by taking them to see one of their favorite bands play and sitting only a few feet away from the stage. This is a pricey venture. I decided to get my dad an early present by buying tickets to see Paul Simon next Sunday night at the Woodlands. That also happens to be the same weekend that I may be in the Houston Art Car parade. I say maybe because my DeLorean is still overheating. I have found the cause, however. The electric fan that is supposed to cool the radiator is not coming on. I understand that if it did, this would resolve the issue. Part of my problem is that there isn't enough time between now and Saturday for me to get it fixed. A rolling blackout or some kind of natural disaster (e.g. flood, act of God, bad pickup lines) would do nicely right about now.

Because I am a Back to the Future super freak, I took detailed photos of my Krups coffee grinder and posted them on the site. Search engines turn up almost no viable results, so I have laced the page with lots of info as well as naming the page using keywords, using a directory with keywords, stocking the KEYWORDS and DESCRIPTION META data tags, putting key words in the TITLE tag and putting them in between the <H4> (heading) tags. If this doesn't make my site more popular, I'm going to have to start posting pictures of dead animals on the side of the road. It can't hurt? Oh, wait. Yes it can.

Noticing that my friends don't seem to update their webcams or blogs as often as I do. Is this a hint that I have no life? Was it okay that I went out to eat sushi last night by myself and followed that up by watching Joe Dirt at the Willowbrook AMC 24? The nice thing about going alone is that people assume I'm there with someone else and don't bother trying to sit in the seat next to me, no matter how crowded it gets. For the record, Joe Dirt was a good movie and made me laugh. I don't think I will be buying the DVD. Since Spy Kids has managed to stay on as the #1 movie for the third week in a row, I'm going to get the hint and watch it. Alone, probably. Well, maybe I'll tell people that my date felt sick and is waiting for me in the trunk of my car. Hmmmm.
