The Modern Log

Dollie gave me a Halloween card. It’s really super cute, with a removable flocked sticker of an adorable smiley vampire guy. There’s clearly no way that I could live without it, so of course she had to get it for me. Only it’s a kiddie card, and it isn’t marketed toward girls.
Well, I don’t know [...]

Tonight, Dollie is at “Equus” and I am home sick, so I am spending some quality time with my TV. The DVR, which has been more than 90 percent full for weeks now, has been feeling neglected. What I am doing right now is attending to “Life.” I love it. It’s my favorite. And I [...]

I had a very nice weekend. Definitely five stars. Then the week started again and we’re back down to zero.
The Ranger game was a bag of butt. I would talk more about it, but honestly, everything surrounding it is making my blood pressure rise. I can feel it. I mean, the game was pretty lame, [...]

Tonight (and tonight only, whoo!), when things were looking grim – Toronto shouldn’t be this hard – and I was shaking with the effort of restraining myself from punching the alarmingly drunk Canadian man behind me in the mouth (not worth losing a job – working in the building has it’s great disadvantages), I turned [...]

Winning last night was amazing. Starting the season 5-0 is an absolute dream. But there wasn’t much to enjoy. Yesterday afternoon, Rangers prospect, Jagr’s Omsk teammate and beautiful child Alexei Cherepanov dropped dead after a shift on the ice. (Dollie’s seen video taken at the arena; I don’t think I can watch.) He was 19.
Now [...]

I spent last Saturday night in Cambridge, seeing an incredible show, despite the distractions of a trio of wenches who have no appreciate for statement art jewelry (or much of anything else), at the Lizard Lounge.
The show was full of highlights that we’d all be better for reliving, and this one, posted on YouTube, is [...]
