World of Meh!

So last night after the MehCast, Chris and I were hungry however we didn’t feel like cooking. After a long debate over random fast food places in the area I decided that I really wanted chicken. The closest place to us was El Pollo Loco.

Good morning, World of Meh!

So last night marked Episode 5 of Year 1 of our weekly MehCast.  It was a good show, and, if I recall correctly, our best attended and longest show yet!  The two of us had a real blast with this episode, and we really appreciate everyone who has been watching and participating.

No, one of us hasn’t been convicted of a crime once, and then commited the exact same crime again.  Both of us took the online test for Jeopardy! last night.  Now we get to wait up to a year to be notified if we’ll be called in for the next stage as contestants.  Apparently, even if we pass the test, we’re not guaranteed a callback because of the limited number of slots.  They randomly pull from the ones who passed the test until they’ve filled up their year’s worth of contestants.

Lindsey had her Mary Kay meeting last night.  I, as always, attended as well, since she doesn’t have a driver’s license.  Now, normally, the meetings last about an hour or two, which is fine, but last night’s meeting was almost four hours.  Allow me to explain why that makes a difference.  The chairs at the Mary Kay center, while appearing comfortable to one unaware of the truth, are hard as stone.  There is absolutely no padding on the butt or the back whatsoever.  At the two hour mark, I’m generally very uncomfortable and fidgeting a great deal.  At the four hour mark, I would have preferred waterboarding.

Lindsey’s previous post was about her love of music.  One thing she mentioned in the post was:

“As I got older obviously my taste in music got better…”

I beg to differ.  Allow me to present you with Lindsey’s new hot favorite track, courtesy of last night’s episode of Nip/Tuck:

If any of you guys know me, you will know that I love music. I have pretty much been this way even at a young age so it wasn’t like it came about later on in my life.

While browsing my daily webcomics for Tuesdays, I came upon an accompanying blog post that mentioned what was said to be a very interesting time paradox sci-fi story.  Intrigued, I looked it up and read it online, as it was hosted for free in its entirety by UCSD (University of California, San Diego).  It described a very interesting infinitely reoccurring time loop, which I found fascinating.  However, it also contained a person being their own mother, father, child, and time traveler.  It is well written, and while the story does get pretty weird, it’s still very interesting in its execution of an infinite time loop paradox that resolves all anomalies.

Lindsey and I have a dog named Donnie.  We did not name him.  We adopted him in May of 2008, at the ripe old age of 4 years, and the name came with him.  I like to think it’s short for something cool, like Donatello.  More likely, it’s an homage to Donnie from the New Kids on the Block.

Friday, during our MehCast, it started raining.  It’s really the first time since we moved into this apartment that we’ve had a heavy rain.  As we were talking (about what, I don’t remember), I happen to glance over towards the door and what do I notice but an earthworm, halfway up the door mount, slithering in through the gap.  A bit shocked (but not scared, as it was just an earthworm; if it had been wearing a white powersuit, I would have been far more alarmed), I quickly aimed the camera so that everyone could see it.  I gently grabbed it and lobbed it out onto the sidewalk, as it would have died in our apartment from a lack of moisture, then returned to the show.

Boobies!
