On Bridget’s Absence

Being a bachelor for a few days is nice. However, there are a few major problems when Bridget goes away and I’m left to to my own devices.

  1. Cleanliness: For some reason, I find no reason to clean up after myself. The only reason I picked up all the tissues in the living room is that the dog was trying to eat them. Normally what happens is that I end up spending the day before Bridget returns in a frenzy of cleaning and straightening. It always makes Bridget happy to return to a clean house.
  2. Nutrition: I end up eating like a 15 year old would eat if left alone. I eat fast food, pizza, and Chef Boyardee.
  3. Finances: I spend considerable time surfing Amazon and Ebay. This never ends well. Fortunately, this time I only ended up buying $20 worth of cables for the computer and Playstation. Unfortunately, these cables will be used with the new 50 inch TV I bought on Saturday which cost much more than $20. Yikes.
  4. Emotions: It’s lonely here without Bridgey. :(

The Buffy/Angel viewing list

Bridget and I have been watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the spinoff Angel, for the past few months. Since the shows exist within the same universe, there ends up being small amounts of crossover in the stories. You could certainly watch the shows independently and be able to follow along just fine, but watching them as they originally aired was the route that Bridget and I decided to take.

If anyone else would like to do the same as us, I’ve compiled a BtVS / Angel viewing list for your consumption. Follow this link and you will find a complete list of all the episodes in Buffy and Angel. The sheet should be self explanatory.

MEME: Make a band

I’m following djwudi’s lead on this and making my own band name. If you’d like to participate, here are the rules:

  1. Band name: Use the name of the article from the first random wikipedia page you load when clicking here.
  2. Album name: Use the last four words of the last quote on this random quote page.
  3. Album cover: Search using the last word from your album name on this page. When the results appear, use the third image from the top of the list as your album cover.
  4. Assemble the cover in Photoshop (or whatever) as you wish and post it on your blog. Please trackback to this post or djwudi’s post.

Here’s my entry:

  1. Band Name: Robbers Roost
