ha ha ha! We're all so lazy! Well, also busy. But mostly lazy! So instead of a real entry, you get an IM transcript. Because this is how we do it in LA, bitches. (What? I'm sorry. I'm so very tired.) (IM names changed to protect us from creepy internet ne'er-do-wells)

m-rawk: hey, did you get my email earlier, where I brilliantly figured out the secret of 'Lost'?
thundercat: yes...and you may have a point with it.
m-rawk: the French zoo? with the carnivore giraffes?
thundercat: Yes.
thundercat: BRILLIANT
m-rawk: what would be scarier than a damn meat-eating giraffe with a taste for human flesh? brrrrrr
m-rawk: i just scared myself
thundercat: i just tracked my ipod. it's shipping out of Shanghai.
thundercat: Come to me, my sweet
m-rawk: Shanghai? what the hell?
m-rawk: did you order it off the black market?
thundercat: i know. Nope. all their crap is made over there.
thundercat: at least i think so. What else could "Shanghai, CN" mean?
m-rawk: Shanghai, Canada?
thundercat: i know.
m-rawk: seems like they might keep a supply here in the states. odd.
thundercat: yes, well, maybe because i had it engraved with my name...
m-rawk: "together forever, love tjf"
m-rawk: you know how to do it right
thundercat: Nope just my name
m-rawk: wait, you're not kidding?
thundercat: Felipe Escuandolas
thundercat: NO. It was free.
m-rawk: um, i like the idea of a wedding-ring type engraving better.
m-rawk: "you're the love of my life. tjf"
thundercat: ha. i was going to do something funny, but i know that would get old fast
thundercat: I just used my full name.
m-rawk: that's weird. i didn't know they did that.
thundercat: "My Baby?
m-rawk: you should've put, "Baby's First Christmas, 2004"
thundercat: see, that's funny, but in two years not so much
m-rawk: in two years, there will be something cooler than an i-pod.
thundercat: yes.
m-rawk: or, Jesus will come back. One of the two.
thundercat: yay! Jesus!
m-rawk: yay!
thundercat: hey, i went home for lunch and watch Ali G. hahahahahahahahahahaha
m-rawk: you have him on DVD now?
t-dawg: netflix
m-rawk: it's so funny that you go home for lunch. it's just like elementary dayz.
thundercat: i know. Mom was even there, she fixed me a sammy
m-rawk: and you changed into different pants 'cause you fell at recess and got your first pair muddy.
thundercat: shut up
m-rawk: btw, I'm going to just start posting these chat transcripts on Pocketfood. since no one writes entries.
thundercat: seriously. those bastards
m-rawk: baby's first Christmas. ah, I'm so funny.
thundercat: i should've consulted with you before the engraving
m-rawk: for reals.
thundercat: just got a flashback of the High School fair, and that balloon lady popping her balloon all over your face.
m-rawk: what?
m-rawk: why?
m-rawk: nooooooo
thundercat: Don't you remember? They had engraving there
thundercat: like shitty name bracelets and stuff
thundercat: hahaha
m-rawk: you are so weird. I keep trying to block that memory, but you keep on bringing it back.
thundercat: hahahaha
m-rawk: and now I am crying. she was blowing up that balloon and it popped in my face.
thundercat: i'll never forget the look on your face
thundercat: LOL
m-rawk: man, that stupid school carnival. I wonder if they still do it?
thundercat: i don't know. let's fly back if they do.
m-rawk: it's probably not the same. kids these days are jaded. you can probably win movies and CD's now instead of blow-pops and plastic snake whistles.
thundercat: i know. cars
m-rawk: I still can't believe you reminded me about that balloon incident. I had seriously forgotten all about it . . . thank YOU. SO MUCH.
thundercat: hahaha
thundercat: your face
m-rawk: well, I had spit all over my face.
thundercat: hahaha
thundercat: your face
m-rawk: I didn't know what to do.
thundercat: hahaha
thundercat: your face
m-rawk: I think it was Chad B's mom.
thundercat: hahaha
thundercat: your face
m-rawk: SHUTUP
thundercat: people are giving me the "who the hell are you and why are you snickering" look, and i don't care
m-rawk: hee.
m-rawk: retelling that story doesn't do it justice, either.
m-rawk: I remember Dad was really disgusted.
m-rawk: you're going to have to show me what face I was making, because I don't know.
thundercat: it was simultaneously disgusted and surprised/shocked
thundercat: it looked like you were thinking: "Wow, that was loud oh my gosh why is MY FACE WET?!? PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME! WHY IS MY FACE WETTT?!?!
m-rawk: ha ha ha ha
thundercat: see?
thundercat: hahaha
m-rawk: hilarious. Bastard.
m-rawk: well, I gots to go do some work. so i guess i'll talk to you later.
thundercat: okay.
thundercat: come on over for survivor
m-rawk: laters. i surely will. Vanuatu!
