Stayed up late...
After much productive conversation with ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) cbreakr, I offer this unrelated comment: I watched the first ten episodes of Toradora, and I can tell that, if Taiga were real, I'd probably be into her. Does this make me mental? Discuss.

It's another Friday night, so...
Banya tonight! All those who want to get sweaty and relieve some tension (in a wholly ablutional manner), let me know.

To anybody I may have missed on Facebook...
As I have a new phone, I am bereft of my old numbers. So! If you'd ever like to pick up your cell and hear my dulcet tones pouring forth, leave me a comment with your number (and e-mail address, if you'd like).
All comments are screened, by the way, which should keep them private, in case you are worried about anyone hunting through every comment you have made in case you posted a cell number.

Livejournal, I still love you, I promise!
So, changes/non-changes in my life recently...
I still spend my days working (and non-working)
I still spend my nights fighting crime (and cooking)
I now have a functional phone (an I-phone!)
I now have a twitter account (AtALossNYC)
And.... ummm.... that's it? Phone number is the same, and I can receive textual messages and electronic mails and everything. Twitter is twitter. Expect little.
Current Mood:  If wistful were an option...

Tonight, toniiiight, the world is....*coughcough*. I mean, Tonight! Boys Night Out! (girls welcome)
If anybody were so inclined, tonight will be a night of relaxation and quietude, followed by the debauchiest debauching ever to bauch and then de-bauch.
The plans are as follows:
1) Go to Russian and Turkish Baths. Soak in the heat, let out the stress, cleanse the system.
2) Go bar-hopping in the village, fill the system back up with toxins, possibly grab some pomme frites or dumplings further along into the evening.
3)All those still conscious can return to my humble domicile for further adventures, misadventures, non-adventures, and venture capitalists.
So, any takers?
Current Location: LJ apparently thinks I'm in Long Island City
Current Mood:  rocking at my desk
Current Music: Myself rocking out to Princes of the Universe by Queen - Myself

[Link] | Tonight! Anybody interested in going to the Russian and Turkish Baths (On 10th, between 1st and A)? Fun, relaxing, and a neat experience for those who've never been. I'm probably going to be there by seven (at which point my phone will be off), and I can offer discounted entry for a few people, on the order of about $20 instead of $30.
Current Mood: neeeeed reeeeest

Personality Tests...
So, I was invited to take a Myers-Briggs test on Facebook, which I had already taken... I looked at my results again, and thought to myself, "this doesn't seem too accurate".
So I took three more tests. And my results... confuse me.
ESTJ - Facebook
INFJ - HumanMetrics (All "slight" preferences, apparently, except for "moderate" feeling")
Strength of the preferences %
Introverted 22 Intuitive 12 Feeling 38 Judging 11
ENFP - Personality Test Center
And finally...
ES(T/F)P - SimilarMinds
With the following proportions:
Extroverted (E) 66.67% Introverted (I) 33.33%
Sensing (S) 54.17% Intuitive (N) 45.83%
Thinking (T) 50% Feeling (F) 50%
Perceiving (P) 58.33% Judging (J) 41.67%
So... what the hell? Am I doing something wrong with these? How can I ever hope to understand myself if I don't get consistent results on free internet personality tests?
Current Mood:  confused

Inebriated Yodeling Go Yay!
Anybody interested in doing karaoke this weekend? I'm thinking of going to Duet 48 this saturday sunday, I meant sunday, starting some time around nine, and going until... well, they close up shop at 6:00am, so, whenever people are sung out. Maybe dinner beforehand?
Spec's
What: More fun than you can shake a reasonably sized stick at
Where: Duet 48 (48th and 2nd, a little bit to the east of 2nd on the south side of 48th)
When: This impending saturday sunday, definitely sunday, around nine (unless people suggest otherwise)
How: Through luck and daring
Why: Because we have no other options left
So, any questions? Anybody interested?

[Link] | Is it possible for low-level ADHD to spontaneously blossom? Because I feel like my abilities to focus have trickled out of my ears while I wasn't looking.

existential narcissism
I think I'm usually happy because I almost never feel like I'm choosing between something I'm going to enjoy, and something I'll enjoy less, or not enjoy at all. Usually, I just think about what I'll enjoy, and what I'll enjoy more.
Do you care? If you do, let me know by not responding. I assume those who don't give a shit will take the time to say so.
Current Mood:  inane

[Link] | Second day of work after being sick? Leaving the office at about eight? Yes, and yes.
Still, that was great pasta the other night.

In brief...
I've been sick the past two days, and trying yet failing to keep up with my own life for god knows how long, but after feeling slightly better last night, I made a pasta dish to blow your mind ("your" referring to you, the internet peoples):
Fusili, with fresh ramps and smoked hungarian bacon, in a fancy bleu cheese (Aaron bought it) cream sauce. Shared with friends! And then we played Go!
I tell you, internet peoples, this must be a pretty good life, if it has all that in it.

[Link] | I had a draft of something that would mostly bore or depress those who read it; I have foregone finishing that post in favor of this EARTHSHAKING REVELATION!
You know that candy, Circus Peanuts? They're yummy, with an oddly creamy and fluffy texture, but they don't taste like peanuts... but what do they taste like?
Well, they taste like artificial banana flavoring!
Your prayers of thanks to my glorious self may be directed to the normal address.
Current Mood: about to crack

[Link] | I find the inexorable march of time and the seasons, and the apparent speed thereof, highly disturbing. To all those in agreement, help me research ways to end this unnecessary waste of our most precious resource by halting the flow of time.
Current Mood:  Morose, but not all weepy

[Link] | I have returned from Barcelona, alive and well! (for a given value of well... I actually picked up some sort of bronchial infection or something while I was there).
I'll give a full update later on, and I'll post some of the pictures I took on facebook, but suffice to say that Barcelona is a very cool place; great architecture, great food, and more Concha Velasco than you can shake a stick at.
Current Mood: just grand

[Link] | The entire Scion Companion is now out.... and it includes a bonus pantheon, in the section offering a story set during WWII.
The Yankee Pantheon.
One's choice of divine parent includes: Betsy Ross, Br'er Rabbit, Columbia (not the one from RHPS, sadly), John Henry, Johnny Appleseed, Pecos Bill, Rosie the Riveter, and of course, Uncle Sam.
So, yeah. Back to your regularly scheduled Internets. And I'll get back to work.
