As summer begins its slow acquiesce to fall, I’ve found it necessary to do some renovating behind the scenes at the haus.
Most notably, the curtains now match the carpet.
Isn’t brown beautiful?

I was talking to a friend who expressed frustration that her more thoughtful posts were less commented than those that were quickly concocted—folks got all crazy-like commenting on toaster sandwiches but were kind of meh about her pistachio pops
Me I thought the pops rocked. Mostly because—as a keen observer of the human anatomy—I couldn’t help [...]

One time I went to a company picnic and that time was last week.
It’s springtime in the Lone Star state and that means it’s BBQ season. Like most Texans, the people I work with really love meat, so we had lots of it at our picnic.
Look here’s a picture of my friend Shex enjoying a [...]

So I went to Texas and now I’m back in the eff-el.
Mission accomplished: I got a swank apartment in a cute little community called The Woodlands. And I tell you what, I’m ready to for a new neighborhood.
It’s not that I’m against religion or anything—Jesus is my homeboy and all that—but the folks who live [...]

The other day FancyPants and I were talking about how marriage is the new dating. We decided courtship is dead—society stuck a knife in its big, bursting heart and served it cold with some fava beans and a nice Chianti …
M.C.: ruining romance for everyone
And then, as her big ass is used to doing, Mariah [...]

I was 19 that summer. The city—like its inhabitants—was sweltering hot.
Beautiful 20-somethings poured like water from subways onto street corners and into restaurants and bars and old buildings. An urban pheromone factory, sex oozed from these golden gods as beads of perspiration gathered on breastbones and thighs hidden beneath stylish suits.
We were young. We [...]

Today I visited a Web site that had this cool feature called the Rumor Mill. Simple, all you do is type a rumor, click “Send That Shit In!,” and you’re good to go. Once submitted, your rumor will display, along with 29 other untruths, in a continuous, random loop.
Examples of rumors currently circulating include: “Armored [...]

At A Very Hip Software Company, every once in a while we hear the Voice of God. Booming and nebulous, an announcement from the Voice of God plays through our cube farm speakerphones and is always prefaced by a loud BLEEP and some static.
Yes for some, their arrival is heralded by Pomp and Circumstance. But [...]

I really should feel bad about how I cranked up some emo tunage for three eardrum- busting hours this afternoon. Emo is an acquired taste, you see, and it’s likely that my neighbors do not appreciate the sad, screechy vocals of skinny, floppy-haired, 17-year-old boys as much as I do…
But come to think of [...]

Around the office lately, there’s been a lot of talk about “The One.” The One is this mysterious techy superstar who has skillz that like only .0000000000001% of the world’s population can attest to.
And even though I’m no tech superstar, I want you, dear hannihaus readers, to know I’ve got skillz to. [...]
