Richard is wearing the new cologne,“Delirious,” with essence of rotting leaves with just a hint of dead squirrel. The saleslady at Macy’s spritzed him with some, and he just had to have it!

Richard is off for a run. Magic 8 Ball has sentenced him to 7 miles. Maybe Magic 8 Ball needs another shake…

  • I slaked on a facial peel…and then I read the instructions: "Do NOT apply to eyebrows." I have 10 to 20 minutes left to enjoy them. #FAIL
  • Lots of fun costumes on the metro…Popeye… Vampires… Flappers… Homocidal maniacs (they look just like everyone else)… No clowns!
  • RT @skunkhair: I ran 2484m before hitting a wall and tumbling to my death on my iPhone. http://www.canabalt.com/ || Lol.
  • I’m thinking I’m likin’ the guyliner. What choice do I have, I can’t get the sh*t off.
  • RT @skunkhair: http://twitpic.com/nq52j - Poop or poop not. There is no try. || OMG CUTE OVERLOAD!!!
  • Diesel shoes: expensive, supposedly stylish & *fookin’* uncomfortable.
  • @skunkhair A solid classic! Good choice!
  • Why can’t I find the pants I was wearing last night? I know I got home at 4 am but I coulda sworn I was wearing them most of the night…
  • All right, it’s that time on Saturday where I dance around my room in my underwear. I need some ideas for good dancing tunes. Anyone?
  • RT @Jamberta: That darn Jamie keeps falling asleep. Now he’ll never go to bed tonight. || Kids!!
  • @DouglasClegg My grandma (dad’s mother) was pretty scary. She was the local horror host all year!
  • *grumbles a bit* Web design can be so tedious sometimes. I’m not sure the new BackStreet Boys album is making it any better.
  • @Jamberta For a minute there I’d actually accepted the reality of ‘Life without eyebrows’.
  • RT @paulapoundstone: Last Halloween I went as a kind of tired 48 yo woman. ths year, I’m going as a kind of tired 49 yo woman. Surprise!
  • @Jamberta Lol. It’s the lesser of two evils I’d say, & just in time for All Hallow’s Eve!!!
  • @aroscigno <3 <3 <3 I’m sending hugs and happy thoughts in your direction via the Interwebz. :-)
  • Shnikes! I will never complain about the Metro being bat-sh*t crazy on a Saturday night again! Okay, I will but now I have a baseline.
  • I found some cool leaves to photograph. They’ve been half-drained of their chlorophyll and are all Rorschach-y. Chlorophyll vampire?
  • Merriam Webster’s Word O’ The Day is ‘lycanthropy’. Vampires everywhere are incensed.
  • Nair for Men…in a spray can! How convenient! I’m sure I’ll confuse this for hair spray eventually.
  • Man, I hate it when I forget to take my CLA. Can I make up for the past two days and just take 12 pills now?
  • The new Lady Gaga song "Alejandro" has waaaaaaay to many similarities to "Love Game"…the beat, the syncopation, even the key. Hmmm.
  • @Jamberta You are laughing *with* me. I just poured boiling water on my face to arrest the masque’s stiffening process.

Richard has a pumpkin on his head. Wahoo!
facebook (feed #1) 3:09am rmankhey updated their status on Facebook.
Richard has all the ingredients necessary for "Wear Your Costume To Work Day" tomorrow…blue hair dye, devil horns, face paint, and semi-transparent clown suit. What else could possibly be required? The Metro ride will be interesting…

Richard is slightly amused.

  • @Jamberta Tell us some elephant jokes tonite, but wait until your BAC is .15 to start.
  • Oh Gawker. "Anderson Cooper is a Giant Homosexual and Everyone Knows It": http://bit.ly/3XOnXs
  • I’ve never seen so many people trying so *hard* not to stare at someone when they’re wearing freaky horns & clown makeup.
  • @Jamberta Be a mummy! (Toilet paper)
  • @Jamberta I didn’t, because it’s something of an ordeal to find a Target around here. ;-)
  • @Jamberta You might appreciate this: http://bit.ly/4fQcnr (a periodic table….literally)
  • @Jamberta :-) Thanks, babe. Sometimes they can be. I think sometimes a lie isn’t always wrong. Say he’s trying to get away from abuse?
  • @Jamberta That’s okay, babycakes! I can make my own. ;-) That’ll be more fun anyway. What sorta chocolate goes with candy corn?
  • @aroscigno :-( I’m sorry hun. I know you were hoping it could have turned out differently. *hugs* I wish I could help make it better.
  • @aroscigno Oh noes! What’s the matter? Why you be ‘ouchin’?
  • If I don’t get this petrolatum-based makes-up off my face STAT I’m going to have the acne of a 13 year old tomorrow morning.
  • Okay, the guyliner has gotta come off. I look ridunculous. It worked when I had the clown suit on.
  • So he lied when he said he was single, then said spending time with me was like ‘oxygen’ & ‘living again’. I’m a bad influence, I guess.
  • Ahhh…I love clean bedsheets…& having a reason to wash them is even better.
  • I have to say #drama has its charms…even when you’re the receiver. So what if he isn’t really single? His boyfriend is ugly anyway. *sigh*
  • RT @Jamberta: I hope you guys know how much I love you. || <3 The gals are aware, too, I’m sure. :-)
  • I just saw a nun on the Metro. I’m dubious as to whether she’s the real thing or not. How do you do a nun test?
  • Clown makeup, blue hair, devil horns, clown suit…just another day @ work. *giggles*
  • Being up this early to go running isn’t the most fun in the world, but at least I get to hear Garrison Keiler on NPR!
  • …then again, my junk fighting against the fabric of this flimsy clown suit is probably helping my cause immensely. #costumewin
  • Happy Halloween! Bwah ha ha! http://pic.gd/7db9a3
  • @Jamberta Thanks for watchin’ out for me. It looks to me like everyone’s happy (except for the boyfriend). :-/

  • @Jamberta Oh yeah, that whole money thing (or lack thereof). I’ll stick with killing trees for now. :-)
  • It’s day 3 of my "Get 8 hours of sleep/night" experiment. (Okay, last night it was 10). I think I could get used to this.
  • A Kindle….but only if it can read multiple file types (like .pdf, .doc, .docx, .mp3….). #ChristmasList
  • @Jamberta Sony has an e-reader w/ a touch-screen and PDF capability. Check this out: http://bit.ly/tmZmJ.
  • This is effing #incredible (note the slider beneath the image/box): http://bit.ly/10fWQi. #science
  • Sometimes the cajones are small because the bull doesn’t always lose.
  • Wonderful. @drunk_dui is now following me on Twitter. I feel a block comin’ on.
  • RT @SuDeepe: Ewwwwwww! I heard about that on the news. Not wht I pictured. Worse!! || WTF #AdamLambert
  • It’s Thursday!!! http://pic.gd/a296f3
  • @AaronClementsDC You got it too? Odd.
  • Normal people are boring. Those born with or given limitations to fight have better skills, stories & accomplishments.

  • @AaronClementsDC You got it! Bats in the belfry!

  • RT @AaronClementsDC: @bobalouie … || You rang? }:->
  • You can tell it’s Wednesday when the Interwebz (and associated parasitic applications) are subdued. (Some) People are actually working!
  • Today was very productive. Wednesday said #BringItOn so I did. Now I feel like a vodka IV drip & watching #KeepingUpAppearances
  • It’s still cold and wet. I still need a body to cuddle with, but the wine is gone. *burp* I’ll have to lure someone with my charms alone.
  • "When somebody knows you well, well there’s no comfort like that; when somebody needs you, well there’s no drug like that.". #lyricalwisdom
  • I’m trying to update my #BList but I’m chagrined to realize I’m forgetting several…and that’s just from the past month. #OyVey
  • RT @AngryTomatoe: I would very much like a koi pond. Decorative and practical if you happen to like the taste of seafood!
  • @Jamberta It means your computer repaired messy areas of its hard disk so that it can run faster cuz it knows where all the data is.
  • @USFBull82 Whatever it is they’re saying about me, I guarantee you it’s 100% true!
  • @skunkhair Do you think we can blame everything on K. D. Lang? She’s filed under "Country" in most record stores, but it’s a start.
  • I dreamt I was packing for a journey & as I was doing a final check I found a blue compass. Wherever I’m going I apparently won’t get lost.
  • Omg, gross. Adam Lambert’s new album cover is out: http://bit.ly/2JZyed. I’m sorry, but WHY didn’t someone SAY something!?
  • RT @paulapoundstone: It says "best before 12/28/09" on my mayonaise jar. I fear the same could be said of me. || It could but it’d be a lie!
  • @USFBull82 Choose wisely.
  • In a completely unrelated story, I’m listening to the new #BackstreetBoys album. Not bad, but them I’m a whore for a good man band.
  • @woolfmg Still sick, sickie? :-( I’ve coughed up three lungs and several oysters and don’t have the energy to go running. #miserable
  • #OnlyInChina http://bit.ly/1UmUoi
  • @skunkhair Stellar! You realize this will mean the end of 83.6% of pop music? Are you prepared to face such a world? #killautotune
  • @USFBull82 ‘Claw Hammer’: A tool for driving or removing nails, such as those in crates. #LetMeGoogleThatForYou
  • @skunkhair :-) I’ve been to one show and LOVED it. I was about 10 feet from Jonathan’s hindquarters.
  • @USFBull82 *hands @USFBull82 a claw hammer*
  • So when & on what channel is "It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!" gonna be on?
  • I’m too tired to decide if I’m feeling social enough to go out on the town tonight, or not.
  • I’m stress-eating chocolate and gummi worms. Every single one of my bodily fluids must taste like some sort of ambrosia by now.
  • RT @AaronClementsDC: http://bit.ly/3EFRe2 — After 4 long years, I have my shopping cart back!! || http://bit.ly/1xZ0eE

  • I should have bought a 2nd 7 Port USB Hub when I had the chance. #TooManyGadgets
  • @AaronClementsDC We should BOTH go for Mensa. I’m ordering the @ Home Test (for $18) now. :-)
  • I was just told (for the third time today) that my fly was wide open. That is because I am doing it on purpose. So there.
  • @AaronClementsDC Mensa was a random thought. It’s worth a shot, and if not, a little humbling never hurt anyone, right? ;-)
  • Oh no you don’t Miss LakeishaWeave!
  • Oh, GREAT night for the #HighHeelRace. Those Queens are gonna have a heckuva time with that.
  • The bus just passed a cute little furniture/antique/ consignment store. Looks quaint. Who needs Ikea? http://myloc.me/1dy82
  • RT @woolfmg: Computer. Earl gray. Hot. Damn… didn’t work. #nerdswithflu || Nice hashtag, #nerd.
  • Are wedding rings worn on the left or right hand? I forget. #MatrimonyFail
  • I love it when the bus does a #curbcheck! *rubs newly sore bum*
  • @woolfmg You’re a #geek, which is to say a #nerd with social skills. *wink*

  • RT @woolfmg: Flu || Awwww! I told you we shouldn’t have snogged!
  • RT @Jamberta: Mitosis wasn’t as exciting to look at as I thought it would be. || Wait till you inject sea urchin gonads with HCl. Fun times.
  • I have M & M’s, hot sauce packets, and no impulse control. I’m about to taste ‘real’ hot chocolate.

  • @AaronClementsDC *giggles* I was wondering why you weren’t ‘answering’. #mybad
  • I have no regrets deciding not to enter the Biotech field. Though it still fascinates me, all the good jobs are in Maryland. ‘Nuf said.
  • While walking and talking on a recent date, my companion let slip "…Lord of the Flings". If that ain’t a #FreudianSlip…
  • My "Gayscope" for the day tells me I need to talk to a bookish friend to learn new things. Problem is I don’t hang out with #nerds.
  • The sign says "Caution: Piso Mojado" (Wet Floor). I think "Caution: Vida Mojada" (Wet Life).
