An Open Letter to the Connecticut Department of Labor

Wherein Josh makes an eloquent, concise, and in no way bitter appeal to the powers that be.

The Booking of the Face

Well, it's finally happened. I done went and got this here blog a Facebook page. I'll use that page as my primary blog-type stuff page. (Links to new posts, changes to the site, free iPhones... the usual.).

Once Upon a Time...

...I took pictures. Lots of them. Some of them came out pretty well.

Gratuitous Nerdity

As you may or may not know, I am a bit of a nerd. I loved math in high school. I thought history would be so awesome if only it came in something other than drab monotone.

Clover

When we moved into this house, one of the previous tenants left behind a female cat named Clover. She had recently had a litter of kittens (as opposed to sea horses), and the last of the litter was given to a good home a few weeks after we arrived.

The Booking of the Face

Well, it's finally happened. I done went and got this here blog a Facebook page. I'll use that page as my primary blog-type stuff page. (Links to new posts, changes to the site, free iPhones... the usual.) This way I don't need to use my personal Facebook page as one big marketing machine. No sir, I can get back to posting links to sites people never clicked on anyway (your loss, that stuff is gold) and and making pointless observations now. Sort of like what I do here, but in little fun-size amounts.

Once Upon a Time...

...I took pictures. Lots of them. Some of them came out pretty well. Those of you from Facebook have probably already seen these, but just use this as a reminder of my awesomeness. Not that you needed reminding. Ok, without further ado, the pictures (after the jump):

Gratuitous Nerdity

As you may or may not know, I am a bit of a nerd. I loved math in high school. I thought history would be so awesome if only it came in something other than drab monotone. I have enough useless knowledge in this dome to choke Ken Jennings. (Nerd burn!) I'm pretty sure IMDb, Wikipedia, and TV Tropes are one click away from serving me with an e-restraining order. At times, there have been blackouts:

Wikipedia > Symbolism in The Matrix > Deus Ex Machina > *three hours* > Duct Tape.

It just happens. Generally when the trance is broken, I find myself sitting in bed next to a sleeping girlfriend who somehow manages to look judgmental as she saws lumber sighs contentedly. I like to know stuff. It's not so I can be that guy from Good Will Hunting who tries to make Ben Affleck look like a chooch, only to be schooled by Jason Bourne himself. No, it's just one of my many... idiosyncrasies, we'll call them. (We will call them that because this is my blog, and "weird brain thing" just sounds mean.)

The Clover in Question

Since I know you have all been clamoring for a picture of Clover, the wait is finally over. Also included in this picture at no extra charge is Tara.

Clover

When we moved into this house, one of the previous tenants left behind a female cat named Clover. She had recently had a litter of kittens (as opposed to sea horses), and the last of the litter was given to a good home a few weeks after we arrived. Clover was very skittish around everyone and refused to be held. Almost immediately, however, she became very attached to our cat, a young male named Gizmo.
