We did our monthly shopping trip today and even though I bought lots of fancy food e.g. lobster tail, rack of lamb, buffalo, fondue - it only came to $300.21 for three people for 3 weeks.

I really think it is way cheaper to buy expensive fancy food at the grocery store than to go out even occasionally. Like when we went to Betty's last week I got two mini lamb chops for like $25, It's not like that kind of meat is hard to cook. But today I got a whole rack of lamb for for 3 for $15 at wegmans.

They aso have garbage pail kids now. This packs claims to have one unopened pack from the original series.

I think I still have almost all of the originals.

Today while spending the whole morning cleaning the house I thought to myself, why am I wasting my time doing this. I mean at one point I was cleaning out the fridge and sweeping and I would have been spending my time setting up the server for the move on monday.

I mentioned to (e:terry) that I thought we should pay someone to clean our house. I would be willing to pay someone like $50 for three hours of laundry and dishes. He thinks that makes me a classist asshole.

I think it's way above minimum wage and not everyone wants full timework, say students, so why not contribute to the trickle down effect.

When I was in high school I was a butler for this guy. He paid us around $8/hour to prepare and present his dinner in the evening and wash the dishes. For me it presented an opportunity to make more money than I was making as a cashier at Vicks and frankly, it was much nicer not having to deal with retails and the low level chain of command politics.

I just don't see anything wrong with it.

Recycling was so out of control this time because I found lots of stuff that had to go when I was cleaning the frigerator. There must have been 4 pickle jars and 4 speghetti jars. My hands smell sour in such a gross way now. Next time I am wearing gloves.

Wish me luck with the server. It is going to be so much work. I wish I had another server, database person to work with.

I am drunk and at the Pink at 7PM. I went out with my buddy Tony from work. (e:lilho) and he and I are going to eat at Sahara grill and then off to the We Are Scientists show at the icon. I havent't been there since I was like 18 and then once when it was club E.

Has anyone notices this graffitti in the oarking lot at the pink.

So a lot of my friends think that I obsessively document my life. I am really just trying to make up for lost time, when I didn't take record of anything. Lots of the most exciting years slipped by without even a picture. In fact during the time I traveled around the world the most, I didn't even have a camera. One place that I really regret taking no pictures of is Barcelona. It was perhaps my most favorite place on earth, although it could be the fact that it looks so strange and I had lots of drugs and lot of free time. Has anyone else been there?

Luckily someone else went on vacation there are took lots of pictures . Moreover, they left their pictures directory open on the web and it got indexed. If you search throught the pics enough you will find not only great pics of Barcelona but really cute finnish? girls, most likely the ones on vacation that took the pics.

At Parc de L'Espanya Industrial I got really high on mushrooms and watched a man get beaten with a baseball bat from across the water. I remember wanting to help but I was on the other side of the water and I was trashed. I think the man was really critically injured. I learned to not hang out in sketchy palces at night time after that.



I guess I am not really missing anything other than pictures of the people I met along the way.

It is so incredible how warm it has been the last couple days. If you don't believe in global warming then there is nothing to worry about.

This entire winter has been so warm. Here is the Anchor bar on a nice warm January afternoon in Buffalo. Someone told me it will be in the high 50s on Friday.



It was even sunny on my lunch break.

The other night I met with Jamie Moses at Artvoice. The server is officially moving there on Monday. I am also going to make Artvoice a mobile calendar site.



I ate chicken Ambrosia at Ambrosia. If you have never tried this and you are a meat eater, you have to try it. It is reminiscent of Chicken Soulvlaki but it has a mustard sauce instead of the vinigar oil dressing you typically get with a souvlaki.



On the way home I foudn this sign on a linwood lawn of the house I want to own but which is not for sale. I want it so bad. They apparently said no to the Casino which angered some people.



Then other people tacked up this boycott delta sonic sign on the say no to the casino sign. It's like a whole protest on their lawn - my lawn that should be.
