 The New Diet Starts Now

Beth just walked in from a quick trip to the grocery store and announced “I’m making something new for dinner tonight!”

Emptying the bag to put the purchases away, I find that the total grocery store haul is:

  • Four cans of tuna
  • One box of Kellogg’s Mini-Wheats
  • A loaf of Roman Meal bread
  • A can of Crisco vegetable shortening.

I’m afraid to ask she’s making.

 Behind The Music

Zoe and I were rocking out to the new U2 when Beth snuck up on us with the digital camera. Oops. Damn, but I got a fat ass. Zoe’s pretty cute, though. Focus on her if you can.

 20 Questions

Oh look, it’s another goofy poll-type entry, stolen from Gavin (and edited for length — because nobody has the patience to read 40 questions about anyone, not even about me).

How did you get the idea for your journal name?

Someone at my last job once sent out a company-wide email announcing that “There’s pie in the lunchroom.” Since the company had employees in five states and two countries at the time, I thought that was a pretty stupid email to send to people who couldn’t possibly get to the pie or care that it was there. When I investigated, I found that there was indeed a pie in the lunchroom. Just a pie: no plates, no silverware, no knife with which to cut the pie — just a lonely pie in the middle of an otherwise empty table. I’d been playing with the idea of starting a blog; that email gave me the title and pushed me over the edge into doing it.

What song are you playing now?

My iTunes is set on Party Shuffle right now, playing songs at random from my mp3 collection. REO Speedwagon’s Roll With The Changes just transitioned into Kenney Chesney’s Young.

What color underwear are you wearing?

Flesh colored. Figure it out.

What does your mom do for a living?

Retired schoolteacher now working as an actress in TV commercials. You’ve probably seen her in one.

What does your dad do for a living?

Semi-retired dental technician. I’ll get a family discount when I need dentures.

What is your pet’s name?

Which one? Two dogs: Billy and Suki. Six cats: Gable, March, Sparkle, Wanda, Cosmo, Nina.

What was the last concert you attended?

Tears For Fears at the Universal Amphitheater.

What was the last movie you saw?

The Spongebob Squarepants Movie. I took Zoe to see it this morning and slept through most of it.

What was the last tv show you watched?

A documentary about NFL tailgating. It made me hungry for barbeque.

What is your fave piece of jewelry?

The 8-gauge 1/2″ CBR in my right ear.

What is to the left of you?

An old computer/monitor, piles of old mail, a stapler, old CD jewel boxes… A mess, basically.

What was the last thing you ate?

Vanilla Haagen Dazs ice cream.

Write a song lyric that’s in your head?

’cause she gives it away
& you’re fascinated by her
& she does it again
with simple & brilliant desire
& she gives it away
& you’re fascinated by…

— Beth Hart’s By Her, which happens to be playing right now.

Where is your significant other right now?

She went to bed about 10 minutes ago.

What shampoo do you use?

I’m bald, you asshole, I don’t use shampoo.

When was the last time you cut your hair?

I shave my head, you asshole, I don’t need to cut my hair.

Are you on any meds?

Considering the last two answers, maybe I should be. But seriously, yes: Xalatan for glaucoma.

A grey sleeveless T-shirt from Target.

1:48 a.m. PST

What is your fave frozen treat?
