Oh man, I just sneezed, and now I instantly have a headache AND feel like I have a cold. Yaaaaay.
Wow, today was a hardcore Vancouver rainy crapfest. Welcome to Winter. Last week was Fall, this week is Winter. The way Vancouver works though, next week will be Spring, after our obligatory three days of snow (which then becomes slush, and then we’re done).
The moustache for Movember is finally starting to look like a moustache, BUT it’s almost impossible to get a picture of it because a flash washes it out, and NOT using a flash makes everything in the room yellow/orange. The best part is that it looks sorta dirty-reddish brown to the corners of my mouth, but then goes completely white. It’s like uh, what, it’s like Hulk Hogan or a two-tone biker or something, but with more crewcut, and less arms. I dunno. You guys tell me when you go check out the photos. While you’re there, make the stupid moustache have a point and donate a few bucks to the cause, mkay?
Today I stumbled across the Bizarroworld’s version of FailBlog - Succeed Blog, and along with something I Tweeted earlier about someone starting a dance party that goes from zero to 300 in three minutes. Now THAT is what you call infectious dancing. There’s also some insane juggling linked from there. I mean, I can juggle three balls, and can do it pretty fast, but this guy can do stuff I can’t even track (and this is coming from a guy who has literally juggled oranges on acid*.) I couldn’t even move my hands in some of those configurations, much juggle at the same time.
I think the thing that drew me to SucceedBlog was that it is all about the most insane, and amazing, and beautiful and truly awe-inspiring moments. Some of the pictures are just sorta cute, which you could find at ICanHasCheeseBurger, or CuteOverload, but some of the video is just a big ol’ glass of freshly-squozed awesome. The sorta stuff that makes you glad to be alive, glad to have a heartbeat today, instead of the kinds of things that just make you glad you’re not whoever that is in the cringe-worthy photo.
So yeah, a good find. I hope they keep going, along with their ilk. At least for the rest of the Winter.
Also, I watched Human Traffic last night, which is a movie about uh… a bunch of kids having a lost weekend (one of many) and all the stupid stuff they do, but it’s sweet somehow. Think Trainspotting, minus any blood or overdoses, and a happy ending for everyone. Two Word Review: Doesn’t suck.
OMIGOD, we’re watching a few minutes of Demolition Man before the Daily Show starts, and we just watched the bit with Dennis Leary going on a tear about having your life controlled by the man, which is fun, but just off his right shoulder is a very young, silent (and puffy-haired?) Jack Black, who looks like he’s maaaaaybe 22… could that be right?
Ok…that juggling made me weep a little. Weird. SO beautiful.
HOLY CROW. Both Tate and I loved the juggling. Tate wants to know if it was Daddy!
