echoooooo ooooo ooooo oooo

Yeah yeah yeah I never blog anymore. Whatever. My life's been totally batshit insane lately and it's going to continue awhile longer, so hang in there. The urge to blog will return eventually.

In the meantime, I'd like to recommend that if you have a Skype account, you call yourself and just say a word or two into the phone, while you're sitting at your computer. Pretty cool effect because as you're talking into your phone and your computer is playing it back, the microphone is also picking up on what you're saying into the phone and the Skype goes nuts. I found this out when I called myself so I wouldn't lose the $5 I have remaining in my account. Apparently with Skype if you don't use it for 180 days, you lose whatever credits you have. Clearly I need to be traveling more!

In other news, how was your Valentine's Day? Mine blew. I never realized how much I hated that fucking manufactured holiday. First, it's all fucking pink everywhere. Ugg. Second, it's innocuous when you can take the high road and avoid celebrating it when you're in a relationship, but try being single and confronted with fucking Valentine's day. So gross. And to top it all off, I decided to check out a new bar in heavily-gentrified East Austin and it turned out to be lousy with uber-trendy 20-something hipsters. Blech. The night was not a total waste, as we ended it at another dive bar in a heavily-gentrified area of East Austin that has a much better crowd. And I ate two nitrite-free hot dogs. And I passed out before I had to overhear my roommate having sex. Everybody wins!
