Autumn's Web Vomit

Hey Tumblr

I know I’ve been neglecting you. But. I just finished reading all six Scott Pilgrim books, and they were awesome. I also read two volumes of Death Note and one volume of Chi’s New Home. I would recommend all of these to you right now. Go to your library/bookstore and get them and read them until the sun comes up.

So I started playing piano again.. I haven’t really played in about 18 months, so it’s nice to be able to again.. I was a little rusty for the first half hour, until my hands were all like “no, no, no you idiot - like this” and suddenly I’m playing things that I didn’t even know I knew in the first place..

I’ve recorded a couple of videos too.. Might post one later if anyone’s interested at all..

Jason keeps talking about getting an 88-key keyboard. I would really love to learn to play, and you know I always like the videos you post. :D

Our neighbor gave me these plants

I’m trying really hard not to kill them. I don’t even remember what kind of plants they are, but they seem to be doing okay on the porch right now.

I got my checks today for my new bank (actually a credit union, but whatevs), and the typography is really beautiful. Not that anybody but me will ever notice it, but it’s nice to see that they pay attention to the details. Also, these were free which is an added bonus. I hate BoA so much and love GFCU so much.

I haven’t been feeling well (mostly a sore throat and just really exhausted), so Jason picked up some of this really awesome soup for me today.

I have been a vegetarian now for several years, and yet I cooked tofu for the first time last night. Here are the photos to prove it.

We tried some curry, and it was delicious.

And here’s the finished product, with rice, curry and tofu.

I was really worried that the tofu would just end up being really mushy and spongey, but the trick is to cook it slowly and be very patient. It will toughen up if you give it time. I also put just a little bit of this seasoning mix we have in there (italian herb and onion or something like that), and it really gave it that extra kick that it needed, I think.

These shoes are awesome.

These shoes are awesome.

Apparently, the answer is yes.

While I dislike the rest of their site, Athens Transit has some really pretty bus route maps. (via Athens Transit)

I would really like to start dressing better. Right now, I dress solely for comfort and practicality. I’d like to add a little style into the mix, so I’m going to try and find some clothes that are a little bit nicer and use the internet to help me with inspiration. If anybody knows of any good women’s fashion blogs, feel free to reply or leave a message.

I took some photos of a plaid dress I bought recently.

Jason helped with this first one.

Rob Dobi is probably more famous for his shirts, but I’ve always found his photography of abandoned hospitals much more fascinating.

adventures i need to take: frito pie in the bag

oh my god, this is bringing back serious memories of my childhood at the little league ballpark … ‘cept we called them chilios. WANT. NOW.

I believe my high school called them “walking tacos”. I never really understood that, considering there’s nothing taco about them.

I love this.

Newspaper to Charge People to Comment

Wed, 14 Jul 2010 11:32:01 -0400

Newspaper to Charge People to Comment:

marco:

(via nostrich, sasquatchmedia)

From tomorrow, the Sun Chronicle, a Massachusetts paper, will charge would-be commenters a nominal one-off fee of 99 cents. But it has to be paid by credit card, which means providing a real name and address.

And the name on the credit card will be the name that will appear on comments. So it’s goodbye to anonymity.

This is an excellent idea, and I bet it will work: there will still be plenty of comments (not as many, but enough), and they’ll be more civil, more intelligent, and better written.

I wonder what name would show up if you used one of those pre-paid cards. Probably no name at all.
