    Song that was stuck in my head yesterday while painting: Sinead O’Connor - Nothing Compares to You. Note that it’s being stuck in my head doesn’t necessarily mean that I enjoy the song…

    Gah. Godspeed You Black Emperor! is playing in Columbus two weeks after I go back to school. Meanwhile, Built to Spill is playing in Chicago one week before I go back to school. Bastards.

    Why parties always make Doug depressed:

    1. Doug sees Hot Girl
    2. Doug waits for "appropriate moment" to start conversation with Hot Girl
    3. Said moment "never comes"
    4. Doug spends rest of evening telling himself what a loser he is </ol> Someone give me some social skills. Fast.

    You know what sucks about summer if you’re all big into comic books like me? Goddamn crossovers. You know how much money I’ve freaking spent following this Our Worlds at War thing DC Comics is doing right now? Gah. Oh well. It’s mad pimp, and I have a job, so I’ll stop bitching. Speaking of Our Worlds at War, here’s the quote of the day: “Flee or die! Bearskin wedgies for everyone!” - Barbara Gordon, Nightwing: Our Worlds at War #1
    Speaking of comics, the lady that played Lana Lang in Superman III is playing Martha Kent in the upcoming Smallville tv series. Is that freaking cool or what?

    You know, for “my” website, I certainly don’t talk about “me” much. If you’re just someone randomly surfing on through, you might be like, “Whoa, some dude runs this thing? Like an actual dude? Wow!” So anyways, maybe I’ll talk about me for a bit. For instance, what’s Mr. Doug doing with himself this summer? As far as employment, I’m painting houses with Matt. We’re both complete comic book nerds, so we just talk about the Flash and paint. And girls, gotta talk about girls. When I’m not working, I’m probably reading aforementioned comic books or baking a pie. I think I’ve averaged between 2 and 3 pies a week since I’ve gotten home from school. This whole having my dad buy the ingredients thing is tight. The current pie is pecan, one of my old classics. The next pie will be another pecan pie. Pecans always come in pairs due to how the ingredients come. One bag of pecans makes 2 pies (even though I didn’t get a normal bag this time, but rather a bag full of pecans from the bulk section, but anyways…), and one jar of corn syrup makes 2 pies. So it’s handy to make two pecan pies in a row. Like twins. Anyways, the next pie after that will be a chocolate cream pie, at the request of my dad. Chocolate pie was my grandpa’s favorite. So that one’ll be dedicated to him.

    I ate fried cheese today. Yay. (I like fried cheese, if you couldn’t tell.) I also watched Howard the Duck today. These two events combined to make one kick-ass day.
