personally blogging you from these parts, these burgh parts

hey ho, fools.

i'm in pittsburgh celebratin' some jesus risin' with my family. a high school reunion of sorts happened on easter saturday, featuring two of the four people i can say i enojy seeing from my academic high school. (long story. see, i went to two high schools everyday. academics in the morning, acting in the afternoon. oh. that wasn't that long after all). for the record, those people are:

1. amy mariaskin (aka baba, or tardy)
2. chris meaner (aka firepoker)
3. thomas baker (aka chugger)
4. why YOU of course! (aka remember that awesome nickname i had for you?! ha ha ha!)

anyway, #'s 2 and 3 and i met up and we played some texas hold 'em while smoking a hookah and playing tunes on my new ipod in what has to have been the single trendiest night of my recent life. i have to mention that #3 did not smoke the hookah because he probably doesn't want me dragging his name through the mud while he's running for the republican* nomination for pittsburgh public school board member

*for the record, i'm a member of the green party and have been since 2001, so i can't vote for him in the primaries. conflict of interest postponed!**

**i did the fist-pumpy thing- like the thing kirk douglas did when he hit the home run off dennis eckersley in the world series- when i wrote "postponed". FYI.

so were those the only trendy things i did? hell no. on easter sunday i watched "indiana jones and the temple of doom" on two televisions. then i ate a bunch of chocolate, and couldn't fall asleep, so i blogged at 3:46 AM eastern. now we all know blogging is tres trendy, and the two televisions thing? that's about to catch on. trust me.
