Good news - the pro wrestling gig in May isn't using any propane flame effects, which means one less bureaucratic layer to deal with (they DGAF about any flame fuels except propane).

In keeping with my policy of not attending certain types of events unless paid, I've been booked to do pyro for a pro wrestling event in May.

Dream last night: working in an office, hear loud BANG, go check out & find smoke coming out of wall, takes 3 tries to find extinguisher not permanently plumbed into a specific equipment room, finally find one I can use.

At least I remembered PASS.

You know dealing with US bureaucracy is bad when, after spending a couple of fruitless hours trying to get an answer to a simple yes or no question, you're looking forward to running a few errands because dealing with idiot drivers will relax you.

I don’t normally wish ill on people, but the asshole who managed to bypass my phone’s DND at 3:30 AM for a text scam must die in the most painfully drawn out way possible.

I’m watching Ralph Bakshi’s LORD OF THE RINGS…

(DON’T JUDGE ME!)

…and while the satellite feed is crap, the shitty rendering actually makes the shitty rotoscoping look somewhat better.

I'm currently listening to an a cappella version of Akira Ifukube kaiju movie soundtracks and I have to say...it's strangely enjoyable.

Currently listening to KING KONG ESCAPES, then after that it's DESTROY ALL MONSTERS.

I couldn’t find white gravy mix where I live so I bought some when I was in the US last week. When I made my customs declaration I could hear the CBSA officer’s mental gears grind to a halt - she didn’t know about white gravy.

“You flew in from the US, right?”

Of all the music I might expect to hear at a fireworks convention, a jazz version of the theme from EXODUS was definitely not on my list.

If you need additional proof Republicans are only interested in “hot button” sound bites and DGAF about actually fixing things, consider this:

We haven’t heard anything from them lately about the fentanyl crisis.

IMO the worst part of growing old, other than all of the assorted aches and pains, is the sudden proliferation of nose and ear hair.

Of all the things (the meth-addled squirrels living in my skull in lieu of) my brain could do after waking me 2 hrs early, why did it have to be remembering the Venus of Willendorf?

Googling “Paleolithic Venus statue” resolved the problem, but I couldn’t get back to sleep.

My pyro mentee is working on a short (3:18) proof of concept show; he's 2/3rds thru the design and after watching the sim of what he's got so far I can say in all honesty that I am SO fucking impressed with him right now. 🙂

It’s soundtrack nerd time…

Me (downstairs w/Maynard, hearing familiar music from the living room): “Are you watching HELLBOY?”

Wife: “Yes.”

Me: “ Fucking NAILED IT!”

I just kept my mom from being suckered into a gift card scam and as a result I am feeling pretty fucking pleased with myself right now.

I’m also happy that she checks with me to see if something’s a scam or not; I know lots of parents don’t/wont do that.

Just saw an ad on Xitter for a DNA test which claims it can tell you if your ancestry is ancient Egyptian and I don’t know why they didn’t call it “23 and Ptolemy.”

The text scammers must have had their quotas increased; I've had 2 "package delivery problems" messages from DHL and one from Canada Post in the last 10 minutes.

GOOD NEWS: Might have a NYE gig.

BAD NEWS: It’s one of those “fly in, fuck it’s cold, do the show, fly home the next day” gigs.

Better make sure all clothing batteries are charged.

This coming Friday is the 52nd anniversary of the D. B. Cooper hijacking, and you know what that means…there’s still time to pick up party favors and plan a proper celebration, but you might want to get a move on.

The electrician who worked on my parents’ house is likely long dead, but if given the chance I’d love to ask them why one particular breaker is labeled “Beach” when it controls power to part of the upstairs living room and part of the downstairs rec room?
