He had a birthday a few days ago and I totally forgot. He is born the same day as Latoya Jackson. He makes me laugh just as much but isn't half as funny looking. I kept reminding myself over and over to not forget his birthday (I am the girl who remembers ALL birthdays, ya know?) and I thought about it so much that somehow I forgot. That made me upset.
Joe is one of my best friends- hands down. Baltimore is cool and all but I definately don't see him as much now and that is entirely NOT cool. We've often compared our friendship to two thirds of Jeepers. We are food and fun- sans the monkey. We love to eat lots. We love to get silly and act retarded and dance around to hiphop in his car, we love to have embarrasingly bad freestyle sessions to the beats he creates while driving to get food. We always want to get food. We can talk about really gross things like butt zits and poop stories and menstrual blood for hours and it never gets old, tired, or boring.
I remember the first day I met him very vividly. I was a freshman in high school and he was a cooler junior. He had on baggy corderoys, a floppy skater cut and a chain wallet. I was wearing my Babes In Toyland shirt and as he passed me in the hall he made some kind of comment about it. I couldn't tell if he was complimenting it or if he was making fun of me. Joe loves to make fun of me but I wouldn't have it any other way.
We've been friends ever since. Sometimes a long time will go by and I won't see him but when I do it's like no time has gone by at all. We just go stuff our faces and gossip and catch up and talk a lot about old times.
Some of you on here know Joe. Some of you don't. He'll be getting a head soon and even if he never posts I just wanted to share the love I have for this friend. I hope that he is in my life till I'm old and grey and he'll still be calling me a "bleeatch!" in his creaky 80 year old voice and inviting me out for senior citizen discount burritos.
I just wanted to say hello. Why am I here? I am friends with Kara, Sonny and Carla. I also lost a $3k bet to Josh, and this is part of my payment, I am his indentured servant for the next 4 years. Things about me. I'm 28, live in Baltimore and work for a sound engineering company in Columbia. I used to play guitar in a band called Daybreak, and currently sing for a band called Triac. Slag me here. I like flowers and walks along the beach -- eat pussy til your jaw breaks, motherfuckers.
At last, I am no longer headless. Though I've only posted here a small number of times, I've been lurking around for about 3 years. I suppose I should introduce myself ... I'm originally from Lancaster, PA but I just moved to Baltimore two weeks ago. The transition has been interesting, but it seems that people in MD are friendlier in general.
I don't remember how I came across Killoggs originally, but I met Josh shortly afterwards because my band played at the Dirtfarm. We played there several times and Josh put out one of our records. Before I moved to Baltimore I stayed at the Dirtfarm for a week or so and met Brad, Ben, Sonny, Jason, Marcia and Kara (briefly). I think some other Killoggs people were around at some point but I was probably trying desperately to sleep in the corner.
Anyway.. I'm new to Baltimore so if any of you would like to hang out sometime, email me. Thank you and goodnight.
Last night I was feeling sorry for myself.
Then I figured it all out... AGAIN.
Kara is not so smooth with the guys. Why? Kara is attractive and smart and nice.
I had another one of my stoned revelations, as I was laying in bed thinking about this.
Here is goes:
• Guys (people) like it when you make them feel like they are awesome
• I do not make most guys feel like they are awesome
• ... because they are NOT THAT AWESOME!
• therefore, it is THEIR fault, not mine, this whole time!
On a side note, I'd like to quote Carla Carpio as saying "I feel like I can't fuck someone and just leave it at that without the dude getting all freaked out because he thinks I'm going to want to get married right after." Seriously. Once bitten, twice shy, I guess... but come on now. I think fear of falsely giving that impression is also part of the reason why I never go out of my way with the "you are awesome" vibes.
That's it for this installment of the naïve Kara's latest revelations.
You're really damned if you do and damned if you don't, but I'd rather be damned for doing it, a lot.
i fucking am sick and goddamn tired of the cat licking me. any suggestions? and i mean serious ones. the cat belongs to the incense burning/turning roommate so i can't hurt it b/c she would hurt me. i have reached the end of my rope with this. i do not enjoy being groomed and i am close to hurting the animal.
Hello Killoggs, my name is Julie. I’ve been lurking here off and on for years. I have never been to Baton Rouge or New Orleans. I estimate that I know roughly ten percent of the Killoggs army. Ben drew me a head for my birthday this year, maybe it can replace my questionmark head. This is it:

About me: I live in DC in an old rowhouse in a lovely “bad” neighborhood. I like it. My roommates and I are the only crackers on my block. My neighbors are: Trent, Donnie & Carol, and Ezekiel, who is 9 and gives me the street high-five. I started reading Killoggs some time in 2001 when I met Ben. At that time, I was working at Visions, but I don’t anymore. Right now, I would rather list things randomly than write paragraphs, so here goes:
-I once shared a house with Ben (and at times Angele)
-I think I hired Ben and Angele at Visions, and maybe Josh too
-I have served Marcia many glasses of white wine at the Galaxy Hut, but I know her as Marci and alternately, Chad’s wife.
-I have pictures of Reggie in his weird George Bush clown Halloween costume
-Being Denee’s boss was hard, because she is more of a leader than a follower
-I have been kissed on the forehead by Jason Hutto
-I don’t know Carla, but I know her little sister who is awesome
-I don’t know Cecil, but I totally have a crush on him from reading his posts
-I was all happy when Brandon and xmx got engaged, then I didn’t read Killoggs for like a year, and then I was all confused, and now I think I’ve got it
-Zach (not Zack) is another person I hired at Visions. He is the greatest.
-I have been to the Dirt Farm on several occasions.
If you would like to know more about me, I invite you to view my answers to the totally gay quiz. Not included in my quiz answers, but possibly pertinent info: I, too, like: sushi, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and vitamin water. I hate mayonnaise as much as or more than anyone here, and yet I do not wear black converse sneakers.
My friend Cory, a longtime killoggs lurker, asked me to post this:
Two roommates wanted for group house in Ledroit Park, U and 5th streets NW. Three blocks from Howard U/Shaw metro (green line). Four private parking spots, huge kitchen, living room, dining room, basement, front and back porches, back yard, cable TV, one full bath, one half bath. $650 for room with one window, walk-in closet, built-in bookshelves. $550 for slightly smaller room with generous closet, two windows. Wood floors throughout. Looking for easygoing yet responsible people. write to cvhowell@hotmail.com and put "group house room" in the subject line.
I had no idea how sad my computers skills were until today. I still can't find a category called "first post", so "Introduction" will have to do. I suppose literacy will come with experience.
Thank you, Josh, for including me in the Killoggs community. I do appreciate it.
