Non-Sequiturs

Sweet Baby Jebus.

Nice view.

Beefy bear.

Lovely fur.

Yummy.

Grrrr.

Woof.

Love the gray chest fur.

Bear belly.

Damn handsome.

Ditto.

Ditto ditto.  And drool.

I'd watch sports just for him.

Leather daddy.

Damn.

Sexy eyes.

I'd jump on that.

Sexy.

UNF.

Seriously hot daddy.

Amazing.

What is the point of traveling thousands of mile to another city and/or country, only to talk to the same ten people you always see and talk to?

We are in the midst of looking for properties to rent for Bear Week in Provincetown next year. It amazes me how some of these people nickel and dime you to death and, in some cases, perform outright highway robbery. One place required a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of $1,500, plus an additional $500 cleaning fee. Bitch, please.

Oddest tattoo I have seen in awhile, a man with "Pellegrino" tattooed across the top of his back.

Just stop trying so hard.

Beautiful.

I don't particularly care for people who make blanket comments/judgments about the entire gay population of a city.

I find it funny when people don't see Andrew and I together somewhere and get all concerned. We don't have to be attached at the hip everywhere we go.

I receive a lot of emails with new music, and though it is difficult to listen to everything, I do try because there are so many things that I might not ever find out about unless I hit that play button.

Working with native documents without the benefit of a discovery platform is truly taxing.

I came in like a wrecking ball.

I saw Jessie Ware at The Loft here in Atlanta this week. She is so cute and charming, and her voice was flawless. The Loft, however, needs to smack down their audio guys. Her vocals were too low in the mix for most of the show. Thankfully she can project, but sometimes her voice was completely overwhelmed by the music. It doesn't help that The Loft has shitty acoustics.

Speaking of concerts, it still amazes me how many people talk throughout an entire show. I can understand chit chatting occasionally, and even during song breaks, but the entire show? Go to a damn bar or restaurant and talk and don't annoy people who paid good money to see an artist.

Although it has been years since I have had one, I love me a maple frosted donut from Dunkin Donuts.

Does anyone truly use LinkedIn?

Hee hee.

Wednesday was a very New Order Substance kind of day. I love the very short synth outro on "Everything's Gone Green." And I always think of the scene in Pretty In Pink when Andie is making her prom dress when "Thieves Like Us" comes on.  "Perfect Kiss" is perhaps the perfect New Order song. As far as compilations go, this one is pretty much perfect. Not a bad track on it.

I get really tired of being the one making all the effort.

I am fairly indifferent to Halloween.

Is every pop/country/R&B star contractually obligated to put out a Christmas album every year?

In the US, portion sizes of food are astronomically large at most restaurants. And people wonder why they can't lose weight. Most of the time it has nothing to do with what you are eating, but how much of it you are eating.

At my current firm we have multiple offices around the country and I have rarely even worked with anyone in my own office. Now I have a project with an associate who is two doors down from me, and it is an odd feeling actually having someone I am working for that close.

Amazing how reciprocation works, and how many people don't understand that.

If you have some inane hatred for cats, we are not going to be good friends.

I wish people would realize that Dailycurrent, Christwire, and their ilk are satirical websites like The Onion.

There is nothing wrong about doing what you want to do/like to do, but when it gets to the point in a friendship where it always has to be your way, with no compromise, you are just being a douche.

Your cute of the day.

Lyrics Rattling Around My Brain

"You left my heart out
When the rest of me is down
You, you enchanted me, even when you are not around
If there are boundaries, I will try to knock them down
I’m latching on they
Now I know what I have found

I feel you close enough
I wanna latch in your love
I think we’re close enough
Cuz I latch when you’re mine

Now I got you in my space
I won’t let go with you
What you shackle in my embrace
I’m latching on you

Now I got you in my space
I won’t let go with you
What you shackle in my embrace
I’m latching on you

I’m so encaptured, got wrapped up in your touch
Feel so enamored, hold me tighter then your clutch
How do you do it, you got me losing every breath
Why did you give me to make my heart bleed out my chest

I feel you close enough
I wanna latch in your love
I think we’re close enough
Could I latch in your love, baby."

"Walking alone I'm in the red lines
Trying to find, find the right time
Trying to find, find the right time

Walking alone I'm in the red lines
Trying to find, find the right time
Walking alone I'm on the wrong side
Try'na find, find the right times

Let me eat all these lies up
Let me hide, let me hide them
Let me hide, let me hide them

Walking alone with my eyes shut
On my own won't be giving up
Walking alone won't mean I'll come for you
Time runs when there's no truth
Such a hurricane, such a hurtin' pain
Trapped in my soul and I can't explain
Trapped in my soul and I can't explain

Let me eat all these lies up
Let me hide, let me hide them
Let me hide, let me hide them."

SBTRKT
"Right Thing To Do"

"I stood there beside myself
Thinking hard about the weather
Then came by a friend of mine
Suggested we go out together
Then I knew it from the start
This friend of mine would fall apart
Pretending not to see his gun
I said let's go out and have some fun

I know you know
We believe in a land of love
I know you know
We believe in a land of love

I have always thought about
Staying here and going out
Tonight I should have stayed at home
Playing with my pleasure zone
He has always been so strange
I'd often thought he was deranged
Pretending not to see his gun
I said let's go out and have some fun

I know you know
We believe in a land of love
I know you know
We believe in a land of love."

New Order
"The Perfect Kiss"

"Hide the sun
I will leave your face out of my mind
You should save your eyes
A thousand voices howling in my head

Speak in tongues
I don’t even recognize your face
Mirror on the wall
Tell me all the ways to stay away

Ey ey ey ah
Away ey ah
Away ey ah
And stay
Away ey ah
Away ey ah
Away ey ah

Dig a hole
Fireworks exploding in my hands
If I could paint the sky
All the stars would shine in bloody red

Stay
Ey ey ey ah
Away ey ah
Away ey ah
And stay
Ey ey ey ah
Away ey ah
Away ey ah

And stay (I'm hearing voices all the time up in my mind)
Away ey ah
Away ey ah
Away ey ah (I'm hearing voices and they're hunting my mind)
And stay (I'm hearing voices all the time up in my mind)
Away ey ah
Away ey ah
Away ey ah (I'm hearing voices and they're hunting my mind)

Black out days
I don’t recognize you anymore."

Annoying Things

Smelling bananas all day once I have thrown the skin in the trash
The weather getting immediately cold rather than a slow transition
Our silly cats that won't get along
Off the rack shirts that have two arm lengths
People who confuse love and sex
