Little rant for the evening…

Good evening readers. (In this case “readers” is the term I casually use to act like I actually have “readers” when in fact…I am simply writing to myself a bit to vent.)

so.

It is absolutely amazing how loopy you can get when you’re tired, sick, and have taken a sizable shot of Nyquil to have an easier evening.

Well…when I say “you” I obviously mean “me”…unless…umm…nevermind.

So…in case you didn’t see my tweet, you should all google “askew” so you can see what its like for me every day.

Not the “askew” part per se, just the googling. I am asked to “google” things on a professional level so often that you might honestly wonder how I actually got into all this. Which was simple. A decade or so ago, I use to keep a journal. Shortly after a violent break up with the restaurant industry I started keeping my journals in electronic format. LiveJournal, then C2…at one time I was even using phpbb. Until finally after a gazillion hosts and many many blog platforms later…Wordpress won me over. Of course I am a great big dork. Mainly because every one in a while I have to say ‘Tony is a dork’ in my posts so that I come up on the search engines properly…that is…by searching for ‘Tony is a Dork’ you might still find me.

I did mention I am a little loopy. Mainly sleep deprivation of the “under-a-day” kind. We used to call that “wedging” – if you were awake for so long that you started feeling drunk…yeah thats wedging.

Luke the Cat - TonyTown.comAnyhow. I should probably introduce you to my assistant blogger, Luke.

Luke the cat is a little bundle of insane cat whoopass that you all know kittens to be.

He is lovable all the time. He plays with absolutely everything. His favorite toy is a straw, which you can use to make him climb up anything, including innocent roomies that dont realize that a spastic kitten is about to climb them like their life depended on it. He also feels my sandals are mice in disguise and attacks them regularly. And when he gets tired he gets absolutely adorable by climbing up my back without notice so he can curl up on my shoulder while I am typing. (Not joking…he really doesnt care what I am doing, when he wants to sleep he meows twice and if I havent picked him up he climbs on his own.

So yeah. I am really tired now, even the cat is passed out, and I just realized I wrote about nothing on my blog, so I’m fired and tired for the evening. You guys have a great one and hopefully my next post will have something remotely umm…relevant…in it eh?

Night!

I have the greatest fans/friends!

So I got up this morning and found my FB notices going nuts…why? Sad Tony Is Sad. If you’ve heard this phrase…you know what comes with it…funny pics of me πŸ˜‰

Here’s why. Tony is a dork, but he has some AWESOME friends and fans.

One of my very awesome friends posted this on her FB page. It’s a funny t-shirt idea I came up with as sort of a gag. The promotion is, if I see you wearing it in public…or more importantly posting a pic of you wearing it online (and keep it up there)…I’ll totally buy you a beer.

I cant tell you how awesome this is πŸ˜‰ …I’ve been grinning all afternoon, and the best part, she remarked that she would have done this sooner if her daughter hadn’t commandeered the shirt for so long πŸ˜‰

Heather is made of awesome sauce.

So I guess we could title this “Free Beer for My Fans” but it isn’t exactly that now is it? It’s just that for those friends and fans wearing the shirt I wanted to give back to them a bit, yaknow? The picture links to my Zazzle store where you can buy the shirt, and potentially dupe me into thinking you need a free drink πŸ˜‰

Anyhow, you guys enjoy and have a GREAT weekend.

-Tony
