HORSE CAMP

A few years ago, when Picasa was only an application and it only worked on Windows machines, I worked at Google and jumped on some of the earliest betas of Picasa Web Albums. Consequently, I managed to grab the username jordan.

Fast forward a couple years and suddenly that username begins working in a strange manner with Google Calendar. People enter “Jordan” into their calendar invites, and they show up, quite mysteriously, on my calendar. This results in all sorts of hilarity when my friends, who I share my calendar with, see all the fun things I have planned.

A few weeks ago I had horse camp. That was fun. Today I am going with my friend Kim to get gas at Costco.

I’m very excited for Friday, when I’ll be travelling to Virginia to receive an award! Don’t worry, I won’t let the recognition go to my head. Sunday I’m serving food to the homeless with a youth group.

The 14th of every month I have a recurring reminder that “he” asked me out on July 14. I love incremental anniversaries!

I think the most disconcerting events to show up are the multitude of doctor appointments. Most days show at least one. A stranger to my calendar would think I was either the most diseased person in existence, or that I was the world’s biggest hypochondriac.

Air Supply’s literal video

My Mom is a huge fan of Air Supply so I grew up with their songs in the background, and to tell you the truth, I do like them. Admittedly, this video deserved the literalization :) Thanks to @redeyechicago’s 80’s Lunch for the tip.

Monster HitmanThis is a Monster Hitman that I got ant a Yelp! event months ago. I needed a boost for my run. Do you know what it says on the side?

“CAUTION POTENT: LIMIT INTAKE TO MAXIMUM 1 BOTTLE EVERY 4 HOURS. DO NOT COMBINE WITH OTHER CAFFEINATED PRODUCTS. TOO MUCH CAFFEINE MAY CAUSE NERVOUSNESS, IRRITABILITY, SLEEPLESSNESS, AND OCCASIONALLY RAPID HEARTBEAT. ALSO: AWESOMENESS, SUPER FUN TIMES, SUPER-HUMAN ENDURANCE, DROP-DEAD SEXY ABDOMINAL MUSCLES, PORN-WORTHY ENDOWMENT, INFINITE WEALTH, AND AN IRRESISTIBLE CRAVING FOR DINOSAUR BARBECUE BECAUSE THAT ISH IS THE BEST EVER AND YOU KNOW IT.”

Sweet balls! What is Taylor Swift doing here…

Taylor Swift and T-PainShe is rapping… with T-Pain. “I knit sweaters, yo!” I think this is bound to end up on SWPL

For those not in the know, yesterday was National Listen to Taylor Swift Day (according to my Facebook events list.) Don’t worry, if you missed it you can still listen to her today. And tomorrow. And every day after that. Except for July 14. That is Jay Brannan day. And our beautiful thug Miss Swift picked up two CMT Music Awards last night -- one for Best Video and a second for Best Female Video. Go Taylor!
