Jay McGavren's Journal

Oh, the irony...

I tossed out all my anime posters when it became clear I wouldn’t be a bachelor much longer.  After all, surely no woman would tolerate them decorating her house…

Well, guess who just got an Inu Yasha wall scroll from a relative for her birthday?  She actually intends to hang it, too.

Went shopping for a birthday gift today, and realized a few things…

-I haven’t been to a shopping mall in about a year. -The main purpose of malls seems to be for teenagers to walk around trying to look pretty and/or tough.  (This is common knowledge, of course, but it only sank in today.) -Malls contain things I don’t want to buy at prices I’m not willing to pay.

This year, I’m gonna start my Christmas shopping early enough that I can just order everything from Amazon.

Karaoke itinerary...

Time for the annual birthday celebration for the girls at First Round Draft.  The playlist at this point:

Jay and Diana: Barenaked Ladies - Call and Answer Jay and Katrina: Scorpions - Wind of Change Diana: Counting Crows - Round Here Diana and Holly: Prolly some Dixie Chicks song John: Ensuring his request slip mysteriously disappears from the queue so he doesn’t have to sing

Diana hasn’t done any singing for months, nor have I.  We should’ve been practicing for the past week, but 24 hours will have to do.

I fucking hate chicken. And turkey. And lettuce. And I’m starving. I hope I can eat “dinner” without gagging.

If I hadn’t already lost 3 pounds I’d be off this diet in a heartbeat.

Something is wrong with the universe...
