It's on: tumblr's biggest loser.
rebeccarae:
So, Mike and I are entering a little playful competition, a little motivation to get our beer drinking butts in gear and get back to our fighting weights this summer.
THE SPECS:
Mike: 5’10”, 194lbs; bmi : 27.9 Rebecca: 5’5”, 126lbs; bmi : 21
We’re going to do this in percentages, but even still, it won’t be a fair fight, as men lose weight easier and faster then women...

Have I mentioned my super hot Russian...
She just locked herself out of her house, and I heard all this banging, she actually found a brick and smashed the doorknob off the door, I came outside, TO THE RESCUE and broke into her house for her.
On our imaginary first date I’m probably going to have to explain how I know how to break in to houses though.

So apparently,
the Tumblr offices are right next to Brasserie Les Halles, which makes me wonder of Tony Bourdain has ever visited the Tumblr offices, and or if the Staff goes to lunch there.
Thanks, google maps!

There's this idea of being
Righteous. At work, they gave us all these name tags that say, “This is my year to _______” and you fill in what it’s your year to do. I wrote in, Live Radical!
I just want to be like this righteously, radical dude, who has all these friends, and who loves freely, and doesn’t take pretension to a whole new level. I sent three emails recently to people who I really...

Man,
sometimes I write shit about the past and it puts me in a really pissed-off mood. Great way to get the day rolling, Waskom.

And so,
I come from this time period where I feel(perhaps erroneously) like all the great art and literature has already been created and I wonder what’s my lot in all of this because I’ve always known that I’ve wanted to be an artist of some sort whether or not I’ve always believed it. Ever since about the 9th grade when I was just starting to figure out what art and life was all...

Let me explain my routine,
So typically I go to bed at 1am pacific time, and I wake up just before or just after 8am eastern time. I don’t know why I do this, well, I do, but I won’t share. So I typically only get 4 or so hours of sleep every night, no matter how much I’ve had to drink.
I get up, and I put the coffee on. Full pot. I take 10 and catch up on tumblr. THEN I SWITCH MY CHAIR. See, I usually...
Just Now,
I was making a beer run on old faithful, and Fate, or whomever decided it was time to rain. And that’s fine. We can all agree that the weather does it’s own thing. But I’d forgotten how glorious it is to ride in the rain, and what bothers me is that that’s twice now, this week, I’ve forgotten what I love, and where I live. I may be escaping soon to NYC or LA, but...

Cornell Sylvester, 67, killed in stabbing. →
A friend, a former co-worker of mine, Cornell, was killed yesterday. I used to smoke cigarettes with this guy, out back of the restaurant, under the trees, our feet propped up. Now he’s gone. One thing I’ll remember is no matter what kind of day it was he was always “happy to be working.”
Kind of a bummer way to start a Sunday. Today is his Birthday.
Cierra knew him too.

Since She Left
Is now available for birthday party’s. I haven’t cleared it with Rebecca but here’s the idea…
For a nominal fee, we’ll come to your birthday party. Here’s the rundown,
If the birthday boy or girl is under 13 we’ll come and hang-out, drink the punch and tell PG rated cautionary tales about life and love, we’ll even bring a gift.
If the b-day boy...

Albums that changed me
Here’s a list of records that did something to me as a teenager, and still do.
Oasis - (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? So I got this record when I was 16 (right after I lost my virginity) and I can remember listening to it over and over again. In “Don’t Look Back In Anger” right after the bridge, just before the last chorus, there’s this build up, that leads...

I Guess no one,
Liked my Tom Cruise post because you all are either, not obsessed with Tom Cruise(like iam), you have NOT seen every TC movie(like I have), or you have better things to read/re-blog, like that slogan website…
And, I guess, unless you’ve seen all his movies, the story won’t make sense, or if you hate him for being nuts, you may not like the post, or of course you’re pissed...

On Tom Cruise, an evolution.
Go ahead and follow this logic…
Tom Cruise is a young man growing up in suburban Chicago in Risky Business, he pulls all that shit with the prostitutes, gets busted by his Rents and ends up going to military school in Taps. Even though he blew away everyone at the end of Taps he still makes it out, and ends up in the Navy in Top Gun, where he’s a total “mavrick”, and...
Rough Day At Work. An original song, that took me 19 seconds to write, and another 59 to record.
ENJOY.
The only remotely interesting thing that's...
to me, SO FAR today. Is that on the way to work there was a Bee in my car, and I might have freaked out. Read: I might have taken off my shirt to swat at it, while driving…

Rebecca and I
Had the best idea. Using ichat I took over her desktop so that when she went onto Chatroulette she didn’t have to type, I was typing remotely and she was making it obvious that she WASN’T typing, so the guys who were chatting with her, were LOOKING at her, but were TYPING with me.
Now THAT’S entertainment, you guys.

Of All The Hootie & The Blowfish
Live DVD/documentaries I’ve seen (and I’ve seen them all)
Live in Charleston sucks the most. The others are pretty awesome though.

Since She Left: Do You Live in NEW YORK CITY? →
Are you aware that Rebecca lives in Birmingham Alabama and is in college majoring in Fine Arts, and that Michael lives in Florida and is a pseudo-manager at a Whole Foods? Are you also aware that they have never met?
This is all going to change this summer. See, in May they’re planning to…
Long story short, if you live in NYC, Rebecca and I wanna hang out with you. Yes, you.

My mom sent me an email,
Telling me that I can go on the verizon wireless website to set up my “friends and family” contact list, so that I could call those 10 numbers free, you know?
I sat for a good 20 minutes going through my contacts, trying to think of who I call? I really only call one person, ever. I mean, I probably talk on the phone 30 minutes a month, if that.
So, yeah, I feel really lame, because...
