Donating Blood

I donated blood today. When I called to see if they were busy, the girl answered by telling me that "we are pretty dead." I first had to show my ID. I answered a questionnaire, which asked me if I'd had sex with anyone who was paid in "cash, drugs, or _____" (I forget the [...]

2012

For those of you who wish for extra time in the day, well, you don't get it, but this year you do get an extra day. Use it wisely. 2011 wasn't great. It wasn't lousy, either - don't get me wrong. But 2012 looks to be better personally, professionally, spiritually, athletically, etc. I've joined a [...]

Do You Know Your Blood Type?

Do you know your blood type? Yes No View Results I don't. My dad is O (+ or - I don't know) and my mom believes she's A-. So I may be O or A. I'll go to the Community Blood Bank soon and donate blood. Why do I care? Because I'd like to put [...]

DIC

I'm going after a new gig, a new job. It's in one of my current fields, and I'd be great at it. The people who know I'm going after it think I'll be great at it. The holdup? There's someone in that position - in a manner of speaking - already. That person should probably [...]

Loss of Appetite

It may be a coincidence, but since I've started running, my appetite has plummeted. In some ways I think it has to be a coincidence because the farthest I've run and walked in a week is seven or eight miles (outside of normal walking of course). I feel okay. I'm not dizzy. I'm not sick. [...]

Trust

Trust is not something that should be given OR taken away without a very, very good reason.

Love vs. Apathy vs. Hate

I've heard it said that the opposite of love is not hate, but apathy. Sometimes I'm not so sure about that.

Kindergarten Class Photo

Ugh. Yeah, I'm the only dumbass with his head turned way over that way. I remember that shirt, too. It was a tight "fur" style shirt. It may be the reason that I still dislike turtlenecks to this day

Worth the time it takes to read, her eulogy summarizes the positives. One could only hope that their final words are as good as "Oh wow. Oh wow. Oh wow." Mine will probably be something like "just plug it in already."

Happy 34th

Yippee! You're still older than me! Gifts this year? A stapler and a steam cleaner. Fun.

Proving God’s Existence

In talks with friends, they've admitted you cannot prove God exists (just as you cannot prove God doesn't exist). Sure, they'll cite things like "the natural beauty" and whatnot, but they cannot prove it. They'll almost uniformly say that it's a feeling they have. One friend a long time ago described it as a warm [...]

Remembering Steve

At several points in the day I'd stumble across the browser tab that had http://www.apple.com/stevejobs/ in it, and I'd sit, reading the thoughts of others for two to ten minutes each time. I don't think I'll close that tab any time soon.

I've previously quoted it, but I'd never embedded it. By now everyone's seen this a few times over, but it's still 15 minutes well spent.

Steve Jobs : Hero

The word "hero" in terms of a leading graphic or image means a certain thing, but Apple's name for the image of Steve Jobs currently on the website is simply known as "t_hero.png" and one can't help but think that "hero" means something else entirely today. Steve Jobs, Hero:
