4-VIII-2007 or Short and Sweet
by Aaron Shurtleff on August 4, 2007
I am working on a Saturday. I am not so amused. :(
Anyhow, the song of the day is this annoying song that one of my co-workers has sung non-frickin' stop for the past week and a half. Now, even though he is not here, I can still hear him singing it over and over and over! I don't know what it's called, I don't know who does it (I think it's some Amy Winehouse person), and I haven't even heard it actually done by the artist, but if what my co-worker keeps singing is any indication, then I'm sure it's not my cup of tea (which, for those of you keeping track, means that it is probably the smash hit of the summer, and is well-beloved by everyone, particularly my wife, who is probably buying the album as I type this...like she did with that piss-annoying 30 Seconds to Mars bullcrap, but I digress). The song, as far as I can tell goes like this:
They want me to go to rehab
I say no no no.
But sometimes my co-worker mixes it up (don't know if Ms. Winehouse does or not)
Try to make me go to rehab
I won't go go go.
Seriously, if these are legitimate lyrics to an actual song, then beam me up, Scotty, there's no intelligent life on this planet. No, wait. Scotty died. I'm stuck here in Hell. *sigh* At least he stopped doing the Gwen Stefani "WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" noise, I guess I should be somewhat thankful for that...
That's really all I've got. Got to keep it short at least, since didn't turn out very sweet at all.
And, no, this was not a reaction to Scott's post today entitled Sweet. Although it is rather odd...

Actually Rehab is rather annoying but "you know I'm no good" is catchy and still soulful enough sounding that I like it....i actually like listening to the whole album except for "rehab" which usually gets skipped

Thanks for unleashing Gwen's back-up vocals in my head, Aaron -- and I *was* about to congratulate you on one lucky break. Now, I just have a big F-YOU. ;-P

30-VI-2009 or Is it wrong to be happy?
I take joy in finding out that the ex that f-ed around on me 3 times while we were dating now appears to be divorced from the first guy she married, and is now apparently married to the guy she f-ed around with all three times we were dating. I am happy because a) she obviously really really liked the guy and b) now I know that it really was her, and not me. I beat the sh!t Go »25-IV-2007 or Ze pearl is in ze river
That's a quote from a weird movie I saw back in the day. I think it had Chevy Chase and more vertically challenged people than I can count (including the famous Billy Barty!). The details are sketchy at this point, but I believe there was a secret message to be passed to the person who gave the code phrase, "The pearl is in the river." Go »12-II-2009 or Say What Now?
I got my little Ticketmaster e-mail, about upcoming shows in my area, and I got really excited, because I looked it over quick, and I saw "An Evening With Dio"! So as I dance around the office, with "Holy Diver" running through my head and a joyous smile blossoming on my face, I look a little closer... An Evening With Il Divo.

I have the worst funny story to tell, but I'm going to put in some filler first, so that you can't read the beginning from the main page, so if you want to read just that part, skip down a bit. I'll put in some funky asterisks (asteriski?) when the story starts. Go »Random Thought
I'm considering trading in a bunch of R3 cards in RB to get a card I really want (plus an Achievement), so anyone who reads this and is interested in one of my R3's let me know. I'm willing to consider a trade over 10 cards to get one I want. Although the Achievement intrigues me... Go »

And, of course, Amy Winehouse is someone's Obsession here at goo.tc! Once again, Destiny has struck true with the groin shot of Ironic Misery.
Yeah, I know. You purists out there are ready to tell me that isn't really irony. I don't care! :P
