Oopsies!

When there's two left turn lanes, how can oncoming traffic have a green light simultaneously?! That never happens! Except for today, when I honked at a guy who I thought was making a right-turn-on-red, but no; turned out he had the right of way in a very fucked up intersection.

I felt bad until I remembered that earlier today somebody honked at me inappropratly: there was a right-turn-on-red sign, and the idiot honked at me for stopping insteading of turning right away, even though there was someone in the cross walk and oncoming traffic. So it's okay I guess as long as there's a bigger idiot than me out there.

Incidentally, I don't like the word for "to honk" in lithuanian: pipsinti. A very wuss word. Very diminutive. Very childish. As if honking is the automotive equivalent of a sniffle instead of a roar.

In the end, any negative feeling disappeared when we got home and I pushed my copilot into the kiddy pool! :D

that's awesome when a certain special baby breaks your glasses, and after wearing them crooked for a few weeks you realize, looking at yourself in the mirror, your eyes are starting to be become lopsided on your face to adjust.

A serious talk...

My special lady and I had a talk tonight about what kind of children we want. She summed up the decisions with three main criteria:

1. Gražūs
2. Protingi
3. Nehomoseksualūs

p.s. she told me not to write any more p.s.s about how gay she is.

This is a soul mate.

In six months and one day I taught my special lady to play buck euchre, gin, crazy eights, backgammon, chess, and finally cribbage (some of the game's links have messed up rules that I never heard of, e.g. buck euchre, but I like putting links into my blog entries). This, I figure, is definately a great life companion, what?

p.s. she keeps winning at crazy eights, which means she's gay, plus she just realized i convinced her to deal for the third time, which was awesome, until she noticed, and now that's gay that i have to deal...

p.s. then i went to the men's room and she tried to fool me by dealing herself all the eights, but she's too gay to do it fast enough, so i caught her red handed!

Buy Lithuanian! (Just kidding)

We went to get a bike for my special lady with a seat for the special baby a few days ago, and we were glad to find bikes made in Lithuania. The main reason we bought it was because the price was right, but it was nice also because it felt patriotic. The alternatives we made by Sie Germans (Nazi occupiers of parts of Lithuanian from 1941-1944) or the Red Chinese.

I haven’t bought a bicycle for ten years, since my Trek Antelope (differenct color) is one diesel bike; the only money I’ve had to spend on it in ten years is a new seat and new tires, and the occasional new inner tube. So I was less than thorough in the pre-buy examination of the Panevėžys made Twin Stinger. The two problems I would have noticed aren’t big though: a front wheel without a quick release, and no bolts on the frame for attaching water bottles or other accessories. The one big problem is THE FUCKIN PEDDLE FALLS OFF! THE GODDAM PEDDLE FALLS OFF!!! No matter how tight you crank on the nut, it falls off the bolt and takes the peddle with it every couple kilometers.

i'm typing with one hand, but not for the reason you're thinking of, pervert

it's hot hot hot in this equatorial country i'm living in, oh no wait, i'm on the baltic coast, barely 500 miles from the arctic circle, and it's 36° (96.8° Fahrenheit). they say it drops at night, but i don't feel any difference. both my special lady and i have been unable to sleep for more than a couple hours a night for three nights now, even after i drank some night-time tea last night. so why am i typing with one hand? cause the other ones fanning me with a folded cell phone bill and anonymous questionaire. several people i know, including myself, have even caught colds from spending so much time in front of fans to combat the heat. and as you all know, since this heat only tends to be around for two weeks a year, nobody, especially national colleges, invests in air conditioners.

I thought I would lay off the search string results for a while, but this one I can't pass up...

I'm the number one hit for as noriu tave ispisti in english

Well Buddy, just so you know, it's "I want to know you gently in the biblical sense."
