  • Sábado de Nada

    Earlier this week a friend equated one of my recent efforts to dressing up as a dead horse. Or perhaps he meant dressing up a dead horse? Now I’m saddled with confusion. By all means he is right, but I argue that if you’re going to have a dead horse around, that hasn’t been re-animated as a wight Game of Thrones style, it may as well look good or at least presentable. Place a nice afghan over it, set out a few coasters to keep away water stains, and layout an impossibly large coffee table book about esoteric contemporary modern art. Throw up a teepee to the side and invite Kevin Costner over.

    I should have woken up last Saturday, tossed open the blinds, and proclaimed that “This day shall be spent outside!” Instead I woke up, saw the lack of clouds and thought “I must venture forth to the living room!” Then I proceeded to do what all Xangans before have failed to do: a visually decent blog theme. Few will notice the changes and even fewer will care, but I fear not! I didn’t spend much of Saturday on it, but I did delay enjoying sunlight for it, which is odd by I’m fine with. I enjoyed doing it, and I felt like decorating in the most geekiest fashion possible.

    Some of you will venture here and see boring white squares on a gray background, while those of you who have seen the death of old browsers see a thestral before you with drop shadows and rounded corners. Ooooh! Ahhhh! Eeee! And the rest of you are wondering what thestrals are and why you’re not outside and why no one makes a toaster that accepts lobsters, instead of bread.

  • I’d buy that toaster.  Probably over pay.  But I’d actually use it, as compared to the rest that I own. On a plain squared Saturday, too.
