An open letter in which I indulge in the blasphemy that is supposedly my forte

February 28th, 2006 · No Comments

Dear God,
Have I told You lately how awesome I think You are? Well, You are. I’m sure You already knew that, but I just thought I’d reiterate it. I mean, You’re so awesome, You approach our relationship in the best way ever, which is to say You leave me alone. You let me screw up […]

I just roll through town and my window’s got a view

Driving home, originally uploaded by yaznotjaz.
Generally, I will be the first to admit I’m a horrible friend. I rarely manage to pick up my phone when it’s ringing, and then it takes me a week (or two?) to return calls. I don’t respond to emails in a timely manner. I’m always right, and you’re always […]

Bastages! (Stealing words from Baji)

February 16th, 2006 · No Comments

Nothing brings one’s (read: my) mood down like logging into an old Yahoo! email account and realizing it was deactivated because I hadn’t logged in for four months. Yeah, like your 1GB of space helps me now, Yahoo!, when I’ve been using GMail as my primary email account for nearly two years.
Thanks a lot […]

Via Hypnagogica (and also Superhero Journal, within just a couple minutes of each other), here are some photos to make you smile:
Members of the Pillow Fight Club were out in full force in San Francisco at 6pm on Valentine’s Day.
Background here and here.
Freakin’ awesome, man.

"Daniel…with an L"

February 12th, 2006 · No Comments

A few evenings ago:
I have to go to the mechanic’s shop to drop off one of our cars. This means that we have to drive over in two cars, drop off one of them, and return home in the other. It’s about 10 p.m. already, and the mechanic’s shop is fifteen minutes away. Also, intriguing […]

And I know it’s pretty damn funny how simple it can be

That’s me! And, err…you?, originally uploaded by yaznotjaz.
[Since I seem to be on a roll with posting about blogger meetups and such, here’s another story.]
So, once upon a time (early […]

Addendum

February 7th, 2006 · No Comments

As a closing commentary of sorts to previous post [which you should perhaps scroll down to read first], I should add that I got plenty of teasing from my buddy S about “blobs” and “blobbing” in the weeks following our hangingout session with Anjum.
It’s difficult to explain to those who neither blog themselves nor […]

California skies got room to spare

February 7th, 2006 · No Comments

S felt it was necessary to add to the glorious architecture, originally uploaded by yaznotjaz.
It’s a sad testament to my slacker tendencies that not only have I neglected to write about my Blogistan meetup with Anjum about a month ago, but she has updated about her first California trip a couple of times already, and […]

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark

February 6th, 2006 · No Comments

Sorry, my wannabe English/Comparative Literature-major tendencies wouldn’t let me bypass all this drama without making use of such an obvious pun. Apparently, I’m not the only one.
Truthfully though, I’m damn tired of the drama - of the emails, the articles, the conversations with friends regarding this mass chaos and fury all over the world. Also […]

Conversations about hair

February 4th, 2006 · No Comments

Originally uploaded by yaznotjaz.
[Because even if no one sees your hair, there will still always be conversations nonetheless.]
* Last December, at home:
I walk into my room with my hair all tousled and standing up in weird waves and curls all over my head because I just took it out of the […]
