another one bites the dust

i discovered a new comic: greg giraldo. of course, i didn't go out and discover this comic on my own; i didn't walk up to him while he was waiting in line at the coffee shop and say, "hey, man, you should be a comic... which do you think is funnier, a bear claw or a cruller?" i saw him on comedy central. now, most of these comics that you see on tv, you watch them and you think, "yeah, this is about as funny as a muffin." muffins- not funny. bear claws- hysterical.

we watched the academy awards at vic and linda's on sunday night. the thing about the academy awards- if you haven't seen any of the movies, you quickly lose interest. and why does "the aviator" seem so very, very boring?

oh, yeah. we're not getting the house. the seller's attorney wanted to screw around with the contract, and you know what i said? i said, "thank god." because i'm averaging ten panic attacks a day over this place, and my mental health professional is on the verge of putting me in a padded room. didn't know i had a mental health professional, did you? well, i do, and his name is chris, and i was not about to let him go about and buy all those pillows, especially when we're saving for a house.

so what do we do next? don't know.

i've discovered online gambling. of course, at this point, i'm only gambling with "tokens," but i'm sure it will progress. i've got the right personality to develop a severe gambling problem. i've also been told that i have a very good chance of becoming addicted to sleeping pills and bug powder.
