This morning I woke up 30 minutes before I had to be at work. My right arm was dead asleep and I couldn't move it, but I had to force it into action. I was able to eat, shower, dress and make it to work with 5 minutes to spare. That was a bad start to a pretty good day.
I just got back from seeing The Producers with my mom, brother and Tami. It was really good. I can't get Springtime for Hitler (2.2mb wav) out of my head. As a whole, it was much better than I expected it to be.

I decided to do laundry last night. That was the beginning of the end...I was out of detergent. I ran to Target, got cheap and tried a new brand. My laundry was done by 11pm and I put the clean sheets on my bed. I went to bed and realized that the detergent had perfumed my sheets like a ho' on a holiday. I could hardly sleep. I kept waking up to "that smell". I'm so tired today. I feel like I didn't sleep at all. I blame Gain.

Went to Gameworks last night. My forearm, ass and right knee are really sore this morning. I had a really fun time, so I guess it's all worth it.

Okay, here's another amazing discovery. I found a site (via k10k) that posts a new 360 degree Quicktime panoramic each week.
Here's a link to week 41: Times Square, NYC

Tonight is the season finale of The Sopranos. I can't wait. My brother and I decided to make it an event. I got some pasta, Sicilian marinara sauce, garlic bread, wine and some amaretto/chocolate gelato. Cliche? Aboslutely, but I think it will make it a great evening. As icing on the cake I might club Keith with a bat while he's eating. Kidding, of course.

The fine folks over at Coudal bring you the Slowtron series, Western State. Both episodes held my attention in the same sitting. That's quite an accomplishment.

If there's one thing that I better get under the tree this year, it's Chicken Dance Elmo. That little chicken shot up 575% in its sales rank today on Amazon. It's now up to the 4th highest selling toy item.

Netscape version 7.01 was released this week with little fanfare. The new version offers the ability to kill pop-up windows. You can read about it at DevEdge. I personally don't like this feature. To me, it takes away from the intended functionality of a site. If you get bombarded with so many pop-up windows that you need a blocker, you might want to reconsider the kind of material that you're surfing for.

Got the new Common cd today. It's great. Go get it.

Peebert, everyone's favorite istockphoto moderator, turned me on to orisinal, a site that has some of the sickest Flash games and movies that I've ever seen.

Seven design concepts have been unveiled for the World Trade Center site. While some of the ideas are creative, none of them look right. I say we put them right back up as they were on September 10th, 2001.

Last night my brother and I had a party for Tami up in the party room. To say that there were some unexpectedly wild moments would be putting it mildly. Everyone pretty much made it through the night and I was in bed at 3am.

The shopping is done, presents are wrapped and all that's left are good times and return lines. Until after Christmas, I leave you with Santa.

Well, it's all over. Christmas was good and I got a lot of great gifts. I finally have all three seasons of The Sopranos on dvd and have been watching them obsessively. I also got a lot of cash and gift certificates that are already spent. I stocked up on clothes, DVDs, video games and books that I've been wanting for awhile. I'll be laying low until after the new year.
