Aw, crap … oh, whew

November 7th 2007

I hadn’t had pho for over a week. I know, I know … heinous! In any event, I was really looking forward to beefy soup goodness for lunch today.
I left a little later than usual and trucked on down to my usual place. As I pulled in I noticed a conspicuous absence of cars. To [...]

Mmmm, bacon

July 11th 2007

I saw this over on Kelly’s website a few weeks ago, and asked her where she’d done it. Then, because I’m me, I forgot I’d asked her until I was reminded by a post over on ChrisDiClerico.Com. I finally went and did one, and there is the result. Scarily accurate, eh?
This was actually a [...]

Saving me for last but you better not eat me at all…

February 15th 2007

Came across this, thanks to a post by Bill, and I just had to go play with it. There aren’t a whole heck of a lot of options, but I think that there are enough to make credible likenesses. You be the judge.
Once you make the little guys you can bring them into the [...]

Frantic tic tic tic tic tic toc…

February 9th 2007

I live … no, really!

It has been crazy around Casa Delgado, lately. Between cold and flu season being pandemic in scale, work, cub scouts, indoor soccer, fencing, and just plain trying to keep up with my DVR so my favorite shit doesn’t get deleted, I have had barely two minutes to myself.
I will be making [...]

Shake it like a bowl of soup…

January 5th 2007

This is probably a little late for most folks for today, given that lunch is only a couple hours away, but I wanted to let all of you in the Piedmont Triad area know that I am declaring today the first, and I hope not the last, Phở Phriday. Look, I made a logo:

Now, I’m [...]

With a little bit of lapsang souchong…

January 2nd 2007

Well, another year gone by and I’ve reached some of my goals, but am still lagging behind on others. I suppose that’s the way of things. I mean, to quote a certain jazzy singer, ahead of his time (Jason Mraz), “Well I bet if you all had it all figured out, then you’d never get [...]

Three, three, three for my heartache…

November 21st 2006

Did phở again today and it was just as delicious. I also remembered to try the cà phê sữa đá, and that was good too. I don’t think I’ll be ordering it a lot, though, as there’s an awful lot of caffeine in it. I’m like bouncing off the walls right now. For those of [...]

Realisant mon espoir, je me lance vers la gloire…

November 16th 2006

I’ve been in Dallas all this week. It was a last minute trip, and has been pretty hectic since I got here, but I’m headed home tomorrow. All is well, except that now I am addicted to phở. Damn you, bluestarliz, sivatonight, and revjim!
Monday night, after work, I went to a cafe with sivatonight and [...]

Honey why are you crying? Is everything okay…

October 17th 2006

Ever have one of those moments where you wonder if you’re doing the right thing? You think you’re pretty good at something, and you work hard at it to make it better, but then it suddenly occurs to you that maybe you’re not all that good at it, and maybe it’s just that no [...]

Just in time to save the world of being taken over…

October 9th 2006

… or how I spent my weekend.
This weekend was the second annual Titanic Open. This is a fencing tournament, hosted by the fencing club I’m a member of, for women and children only (get it). I’d go into greater detail about the whole even itself, but Woody said it quite expertly, and succinctly, here. For [...]
