Random Thoughts from a Large Head

Today marks a very important anniversary. Yes, six months ago, I saw Richard Marx in concert. Good times.

During last night’s DFWblogs Cocktail Event, Denise, Tina, Ruaraidh, and I skipped out to grab some food at Chuy’s. Ruaraidh, being from Scotland and all, has a Scottish brogue. The waitress seemed greatly amused by this, trying to learn some regional phrases. She appeared to get the impression that Ru was fresh off the boat when offering us appetizers:

Waitress: So would you like some queso to start off with?
[Everyone gets that blank "Does anyone want an appetizer?" stare, which the waitress interpreted as Ru not understanding what queso was.]
Waitress: [looking at Ru] Cheesy dip?

I was unable to contain my laughter.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

My favorite Irish toast, which I was introduced to by Elenore’s dad at her rehearsal dinner:

May those who love us, love us,
And those who don’t, may God turn their hearts;
And if He won’t turn their hearts, may He turn their ankles,
So we’ll know them by their limping.

A follow-up to Wednesday’s post about Network Solutions. After going and putting in all my credit card info to save my domain, the evil NS informed me that domain isn’t registered with them. Searching deep into the recesses of my head, I recalled a time a few months ago when I needed to update my DNS information, but couldn’t get the changes made through Network Solutions’ evil interface. So, I had 000domains transfer it over to their service. A fairly painless procedure. Apparently, NS didn’t notice, though, and still thought it fun to get my heartrate up. So, the moral of this story is: Network Solutions = evil.

The headnappers have finally made their demands:
The demands of the Headnappers are as follows:

Once this is done, your Large Head will be returned to you.

I can only follow through with their demands. I do so miss my dear head. Life isn’t the same since we have been separated. The Head Project will commence when I return from SXSW.
