Half-assed post

Aaaarrrrggghhhhhh!!!!  I'm too tired to do a proper post tonight.  I wanted to yammer on about the Viva Florida 500 and how there is no publicity for events, OUAT and how it seems someone is stealing my fan-fic material, and some other crap that is escaping me at the moment.

But what I will say is that I managed to buy myself some Game of Thrones "PJ's" at Wally's for my birthday!  Woot!  Wally's never disappoints with the good scores.  I got the Stark insignia shirt for about 30% the cost of what it is online and a nice soft pair of gym shorts for little dinero. 
Too bad they didn't have the one of Tyrion slapping the shit out of Joffrey!  Hmmm, I can't seem to find a pic of that one, so here's a YouTube of it:



I also got around to returning my dad's many calls after he's been blowing up my phone over the stupid watch thing.  I wish I had never said anything.  I said that I'd find something since I'm very particular and he can just reimburse me.

Nice shirt. Is it 100% cotton? Or a mix?

Tyrion slapping the shit out of Joffrey!

Is that from the second season?

I wish I had never said anything.

I guess it's really hard to lock your dad out of your life like that?

It just keeps raining over here. The weather is supposed to get better tomorrow. I sure hope so.

Thanks! It's 100% cotton, but a light weight one. I prefer a 50/50 poly/cotton blend because it's softer but this is fine.

Is that from the second season?

Yes. IIRC, it's from the very end of the season.

I guess it's really hard to lock your dad out of your life like that?

Yeah, especially when he makes demands on my time. PDs just don't seem to get it. If they'd just chill the hell out and stop with all the demands and histrionics then nons wouldn't dread contact and avoid it. Of course, if they could realize this, they'd be normal and not PD'd! Such fun!/sarc

Keeps raining? In the Netherlands? The hell you say! ;P It just keeps on being hot and sunny here. I know, right? ;P If it doesn't clear up soon, you *may* have to resort to taking stealth photos of old peeps. :/

Ha ha. No, that's never going to happen. Even they deserve some privacy.

The news on the weather is that is should get better over the weekend. Of course I've lost all my faith in the Dutch meteorological institute now so... Don't get your hopes up.

I didn't say *your* old peeps. It could be random old peeps. ;P And it would have to be stealthily done or else they'd probably notify the politie of some shady character snapping photos. IIRC, some dude in NY got in trouble for doing that! LOL ;P (You know I'm just kidding. I don't want any pics of old peeps.)

They are obviously in league with the local hacks. There were water spouts galore today...was supposed to be sunny, hot and humid. It's been partly cloudy, hot, but not very humid. I'm fairly sure they're just guessing at this point.

Okay, I send some old pics of a middle aged peep then :P

BTW, I didn't mention it yesterday but I too thought that your comment to Petrichor's blog article was very quotable. Quite nice. :)

Hi, I'm just writing in to say that I'll be babysitting today. And looking forward to your next post (assuming you're writing one) ;)

Thanks! I was a bit shocked to see it had made the front page. Once in a while, the perfect storm of lucidity, coherence, and annoyed-by-old-peeps ranty-ness happens with me and comment gold happens. At least I'm finally getting over the TIA-caused aphasia after all these years.

assuming you're writing one) ;)

I'm at the pre-writing phase ATM...I'm "thinking" of what I'm going to write about. ;P

Ya know, the video of Tyrion slapping the shit out of Joffrey has to be from the third season. There was another time when Tyrion slapped the shit out of him at the end of the second season but this isn't it. Very similar camera angle, though.
