Day three in California was equally uneventful. Josh bailed on the Pixar trip (the bozo :-P) and Jason and I decided to see Finding Nemo another day. I played around with osascript a little bit (it's fun to make other people's computers do funny things). I ate some 7/11 food (gee, yum). I've got to […]

Day two of my stay in CA was largely uneventful. I met Jason for dinner (at the Outback) and picked up some clothing and things. I got a peek at something from my future and am pleased. I called home and spoke with someone who means a great deal to me, and so that made […]

Today was a good day. A new phase of my life begins. I can't say much more than that - nor would I want to - but it's good. Things worked out well. Well, except for the fact that I'll be driving a Cavalier for the next two weeks. I ate at Outback with Lisa, […]

We slept in. My date/companion/friend and I had nothing to do until 11:30, right? The wedding was over, and all we had to do was get to the airport by 1:59 or so. We slept in. It was enjoyable - and relaxing - and we slept in. What we didn't plan on was the hypoglycemia […]

My sister's now married. My kid sister is married. She's too young, isn't she? I'm barely at the point in my life where I could see getting married, and she's over three years younger. How is she old enough? When you find "The One" I guess you're just ready, right? Well, congrats. But in my […]

I returned to PA with little excitement - exactly what you want when travelling by airplane. After all, excitement would typically involve a problem, right? I arrived, I waited forever to get my luggage (I was one of the last to get mine), and I got my Mercury Grand Marquis from Budget. I drove around […]

"I'm leeeeaaaaving… on a jet plane…" I'm flying to Pittsburgh tomorrow for my sister's wedding (Saturday). A friend is flying up Saturday morning to join me. Then Sunday I'm off to California for two weeks. I'll still be writing. Whether or not I'll get the chance to post things when I write them remains to […]

I sometimes think that I could be a weatherman extraordinaire. When I was 15, 16, and up I could accurately predict the weather - temperatures, rainfall, etc. for about 24 hours. I spent about ten hours a day at a golf course, though, so I simply chalked it up to familiarity. I guess I'm becoming […]

I watched West Wing just now and they played a song that haunted me, that gave me goosebumps. It was a Tori Amos remake of a song called "I Don't Like Mondays" and I may have never felt more touched watching standard television programming in my life. The song, her voice, and the storyline combined […]

I walked out to my car after visiting Circuit City today as an old woman was getting out of her car next to me. She didn't see me (my car is taller than I am, from her angle anyway, and my glass is tinted). She didn't see me as she put the latest Circuit City […]

I did my own little form of meditation tonight (I know what I mean, I don't care that you don't). I'm about as relaxed as I've ever been. I'm drinking a really, really cold Coke. I'm typing really well, very languid, very fluid. And then my dog shoves a slobbered-on toy in my lap, and […]

Chalk another one up to the iTunes Music Store: I've bought my fourth track from the store. It's Live's exclusive "Heaven (Acoustic Version)" from their new Birds of Pray album. I didn't even know Live had a new album coming out until I received an email called "New Music Tuesdays" from Apple this morning. After […]

I guess sometimes a little lying isn't too bad… Daria: Well… it's all in your head. You are tall with good muscle tone a full head of hair, balanced features… a good package overall. Daria: You've been dressing really well lately and you have a tan… just the other day i thought to myself "boy […]

I had a conversation with a friend today. A conversation I'm sick of having. A conversation about how I constantly seem "upset." Truth is, I am. The rest of the truth: I'm only upset with myself. I've got very high standards for people, and even higher standards for myself. Yes, this means I'm constantly let […]

I'm not very comfortable today in my clothing. I'm fidgety, I'm shifty, and I can't seem to get situated properly. It doesn't itch or anything - it's just not bunching in the right places or anything. So I'll take off my clothes. Ahhh, much better. Note to self: put clothes back on before checking the […]
