Listen to this weird phone call I gotCategory: phone
At first she was all, you know who I am right. Seriously, I have no idea. Then she was all, "Are you gay, Paul."
So I hung up and she called back to leave this message. Some people are so weird. It almost sounds like (e:matthew) 's sister but I can't see it being her.

Random Buffalo ThingsCategory: buffalo
Today we went to lunch at Kuni's on The go over on Lexington. The food was delicious as usual. Outside the Coca Cola truck parked to drop off a beverage delivery. Check out the rusty propane tank on the truck. It looks like maybe it could use a safety inspection?!
Here is a pic of Megan standing in front of our house after lunch with (e:jima) nd (e:enknot) today.
You can see the moving truck of our new roommate who is moving in today. I hope this works out and he doesn't eat all our food, lol unlike nameless bitch our old roommate.
People ask me why I am not so fond of the sky mansion building that is supposed to be going up on Gates circle. Well the reason is these two towers down the street from the proposed location. I am sure they looked oh so sheik when the were first be erected but now they look like horrible anachronisms. I doubt glass and chrome exteriors will look modern in the "Real Future"
(e:hodown) and (e:lilho) 's ex step sister, Jessica Magleietto, is now running for office in the Delaware District of Buffalo. That is so awesome - she is just about (e:lilho) 's age. At first I just assumed it was someone with the same name but then i saw this billboard on the corner of Delaware and West Delevan. I hope she wins.
I'm sure if Bruce wanted to, and felt that he had something to offer the public, he would take ownership and run for office. Being a coach is a lot tougher than being the sideline reporter. =D I give this girl a thousand percent more credit than most people because she's actually found the bollox to run and to put herself up for scrutiny. Well done to her.
By the way, I agree that the apartment hi rises are out of fashion, even my limited sense of style can recognize that level of ugly. Who knows what will be in or out tomorrow. I wonder who is actually going to be able to afford to live in the new building.
Wow, I am glad I am not running for office as I am a notorious mispeller and I say frankly a lot.
"In her response to the Stonewall Democrats' questionnaire, Jessica Maglietto twice wrote "principals" when she should have been writing "principles." Either she doesn't know how to spell the word or she doesn't know the difference in two words that :::link:::
(e:zobar)- i kinda have to agree w your articles. She was best friends w my old roommate until my old roommate got sick of hanging out with slutty drunk girls (aka jess mags).
Wow. And tomorrow we're running two articles totally trashing her :::link::: :::link::: . Considering that's my mom's district and it looks like she's cruising for the easy win, I hope for the city's sake that she's more intelligent and less spineless than Bruce Jackson makes her out to be. [Bruce Jackson is hardly known for impartiality, and the incumbent is kind of a dim bulb himself.]
Those apartments are hideous, and there are several other buildings all down Delaware that are almost as bad. I don't mind them putting in another high-rise, and I'm glad they've put at least some thought into aesthetics, but I'm not convinced that it won't look totally idiotic there.
I'm a total drag tonight. Sorry man.

holy shit. thats my ex step sister! lol. buffalo is such a funny little town!
oh man those seafoam green monstrosities of buildings are hideous!!
lauren says it reminds her of the "Under the Sea" dance from "back to the future".
I think things at moderate sizes that fit in with their surrounding, are made of natural materials and in earth tones seem to fit in much better and look nice.
But, we can't not build crap because it will someday be out of fasion. That is like not having babies because one day they will grow old and die.
But Jesus, those other apartment buildings are ridiculously ugly.
those two apartment buildings are seriously the ugliest things ever. but apparently the apartments inside are very nice. i still wouldn't live there though. ick.

Enknot and Megans Baby ShowerCategory: friends
Here is (e:enknot) with his mommy.
Here are some other people
Jeremy Jungels was there. He is great. Buffalo is so small it is amazing how everywhere I go I end up know so many people.
(e:matthew) won the name guessing game. He picked Fern. I wonder if they would really name it fern. He won like $35 which makes him a winner at the last two party games he played.
thats really a cute name! congrats matthew~!
I talked to Tony today, he said that they are pretty sure they really will name her Fern.

Another Mac keyboardCategory: computers
I can't believe the big box they ship in. It makes no sense because it is not filled with padding, just a big empty box with the keyboard inside.
The second one was even bigger.- which is totally ridiculous.
So I asked the cleaning lady about where I can recycle the cardboard and she say they just throw all the cardboard in the dumpster. She even offered to do it for me. I think I am going to have to look into this soon because I can't believe a place as big as Roswell Park would not recycle cardboard.
I'll take the boxes if it isn't too much trouble to get them home. they look good for moving
But the cleaning person at Carlton said that they put stuff in a recycle bin. Was he kidding me??!
back at sprint we used to receive posters rolled up in a gigantic loose roll in boxes like this. every new promotion would arrive and we would receive a packet of papers taped to the bottom of a large box filled with crumpled paper.
i can't beleive the blatent disregard for the environment.

New York Record Retieval, Inc ScamCategory: housing
I love how they add the
RE: ERIE COUNTY CLERK
as though it has anything to do with the Erie county clerk.
Surprisingly, there is very little information about it being a scam accept from this warning from the Westchester Country clerks office In fact, there is nothing about them and Erie county, maybe this is new here.
"No Westchester County homeowner needs to pay an excessive fee to obtain a certified copy of their deed," cautioned Idoni. "And homeowners should not be made to feel that they need a certified copy of a document which has been properly recorded in our office." Idoni continued, "Deeds are recorded by my staff and then returned to the party who has recorded them. In most cases, this is the attorney for the new homeowner."
Idoni and his staff became aware of these letters in recent days as the result of calls and emails from residents around the County. They urge Westchester residents to know the facts about obtaining a certified copy of their deed. "Westchester County homeowners can always obtain a certified copy of their deed from our office for the cost of only $5.00 for up to five pages, plus $1.00 for each additional page," stated Idoni. "And residents should know that if their deed was filed in this office, it has been recorded and remains valid whether or not the homeowner has a certified copy of that deed in their possession."
i definetely heard a giggle at the end. it sounds like it might be a different person in the background giggling. accomplice.
2 party team.
Hmm. Do you have a co-worker that wants a deep dicking but isn't sure if she's barking up the wrong tree? Even if that is true I'm not sure how she'd get your number. For that matter, how could this girl have gotten your number anyway?
That is just weird and I'm sorry that you had to deal with it. I think (e:jenks) is onto something and this girl may be taking the piss. I'm not gay and I'm offended!
hmm... if you do the "to return this call, press 8" on a restricted number, will it call it? wonder if you can figure it out somehow.
how weird. it's almost like she giggles at the end.
Wait a second! Paul, you are gay? Jesus, what if your boyfriends find out?
Damn, and I thought I needed a life.
that is really crazy
That wasn't my sister.
