The weekend is not having to set your alarm.
A rare weekend where I’m back and asleep before 2am both night. I’m old or lame or really wiped out by the last week. Also, broke.

Me: It's strange talking to you about Tumblr in person.

I’m pretty sure you already follow him, but if for some reason you don’t, add Dan Hacker to your dashboard. Though mostly geek/movie posts, I often feel like I want to reblog his entire page, our interests are so similar. He just withholds the personal/narcisissim. Always worth reading.

The Good News: Mets (ok, Delgado) killed in the Bronx, but I’m on my way to witness Part II at Shea - my first Subway Series game yet.
The Sad: I spent all day getting the UHaul out of the Bronx with Brad, just to move him out. We’ve known each other 24 months and lived together 20 of them. He’s one of the truly great guys out there and I am better for having gotten to know him....

Dear Nintendo,
marco:
Congratulations on your success with the Wii. Really. Despite my doubts, it continues to sell well — so well, in fact, that people still can’t reliably buy one anywhere. I recognize that you’ve shipped twice as many Wiis per month, on average, as Microsoft has shipped Xbox 360s. But the Wii was released 1.6 years ago.
On launch day, it was hype. That’s good. But 1.6 years later, the...

Cancun
This morning I had no summer vacation plans.
That changed when I heard from a friend that he’s going to Cancun and I should crash his hotel with him.
Turns out that’s next week.
Last minute flight? Expensive. But I’ve never been, just got some money, and need to use those vacation days.
Clicking “submit purchase” on JetBlue.com was indeed scary.
