graffiti in the gardengraffiti in the garden - LiveJournal.comthese are the times&8230;- July 31, 2007 Virgo: You may have to cut back on your big vacation plans for a while, but don&8217;t get discouraged. You can still take your trip; it may just need to wait. Paradoxically, the more effort you put into making it happen now, the less likely it will. You are better off if you can shift your focus to something besides your vacation for a while, at least until the time is right. (Rick Levine horoscope) Well my trip is still on, so stuff that noise, but it has been a rather trying past couple of...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/676578.html urban bohemian, only 8 days until your cruise!- July 30, 2007 The Carnival website is really cute when you log in to check your reservation, it gives you a message with a days until countdown to your cruise. It hasn&8217;t even felt like it&8217;s really happening until I realized it&8217;s just over a week now. I was on the phone with Michael earlier and we were both online to look at excursions and other details. Our boarding passes have our stateroom number on them, I was able to go online and see the ship&8217;s deck plan and find where our room...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/676188.html When you really need motivation to wake up!- July 27, 2007 When the Senseo breaks down, I think I know what I&8217;m buying to replace it, the Saeco Etienne Louis espresso coffee machine. The cover of Etienne Louis is a steel sphere, whereas the spikes and the supports are made from polished aluminium. The removable upper half of the sphere hides the removable water tank. You can brew one or two cups of espresso. Like the Starck &8216;Rocket&8217; orange juicer, it&8217;s the kind of thing you just have out on the counter, and whether you use it or...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/675926.html on the elevator this morning&8230;- July 27, 2007 &8220;What a good healthy breakfast!&8221; she said to me, noticing my tray with eggs, bacon, milk and cereal. I smiled and said &8220;I&8217;m trying to be good, eating a somewhat balanced breakfast instead of just having coffee&8230;&8221; It was at that moment I realized that the nice young woman in front of me was holding nothing more than her purse and a cup of coffee. She said, &8220;Gee, thanks!&8221; half-jokingly and I backpedaled saying that I&8217;d likely be back down myself in an.http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/675703.html Balls-Out Mayer- July 26, 2007 I think the first &8220;skin&8221; post I had since the new look was of John Mayer on the beach. I posted it because he&8217;s cute, of course, but mainly because when he let his hair grow long, it&8217;s usually an untamed mop and it was nice to see it under control (more or less). As seen above, he&8217;s looking quite hot again as part of the new GAP ad campaign, but that&8217;s secondary to a recent post on his blog about drug and alcohol arrests at his concert this past weekend: In...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/675503.html Scrum of a different kind. Offside- July 24, 2007 I needed a lighter entry to follow up the last one and this is chuckle-worthy, among other things. Towleroad featured this ad last week, and I felt it needed to be shared. In rugby football, the offside rule prohibits players from gaining an advantage from being too far forward. &8212; Offside (Wikipedia) With the above photo, I think &8220;being too forward&8221; is an understatement! Click for full-size. I thought about putting this image behind a (more&8230;) cut, but I figured more...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/675099.html missed disasters- July 24, 2007 &8220;Japan finds itself in crisis, with our society and culture temporarily reverting to a pre-cyberunification era,&8221; said Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe, communicating non-telekinetically for the first time in his nearly 150 years of post-cryogenic life. &8220;Though many citizens have been limited to algorithm-based emotion detection, neutron baths, speed limits below the speed of light, and other barbaric inconveniences for over a week now, I promise we will pull...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/674921.html That security line is never this much fun- July 23, 2007 So glad I didn&8217;t skip this commercial on the TiVo.

Yesterday Justin and I drove down to Calvert County again to show me where his parents&8217; place is, they live in Scientists&8217; Cliffs, a really cute community overlooking the Chesapeake Bay. On our way down, we stopped at Stoney&8217;s Seafood House. Justin&8217;s been talking about their crab cakes for over a month now and telling me that...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/674464.html How geeky are we- July 19, 2007 One of my blog buddies, Shindo, got his hands on the iPhone and wrote about his brief experience playing around with it. I&8217;ve had my hands on one as well, but I was with 2 other people, and it was late so my visit was more for the &8220;I wanna touch it!&8221; than really checking out its capabilities. What&8217;s funny is that he pulled up Chris and my blogs on the device, as well as his own &8212; I do the same thing! When I got the Opera browser working on my Wii, the first site I...http://urban-bohemian.livejournal.com/674283.html |
