Went and saw Stranger than Fiction last night. Maybe I'm more tired than usual, or maybe I'm a big softie when it comes to movies, or maybe I'm a big softie all together, but I did well up a bit. I feel like the movie should have been a bit darker, but I'm not going to spoil the plot for the sake of explaining the details I feel should have been ( Read more... )

I'll do a substantial posting about being melancholy and my feelings towards the subject matter of my recent studies as well as the subsequent disconnected feeling, but that will be later. For now, I rode my bike around in shorts in 18 degree weather. Woo. I have nordic ranger training on Saturday and I'm pretty excited but at the same time I ( Read more... )

For any of you who have ever gotten off a plane in Colorado during the cooler half of the year, nothing beats that rush of cold air. Refreshing. Beautiful. Heavenly. Wonderful ( Read more... )

Heavens! Well, the the heavens must be falling cause I'm finally writing in this thing again. Shit. How do I make up for 5 months of absence? Well, school is going. I feel that's probably the best way to sum it up. I'm working hard again and that's a nice feeling. Earlier in the semester, I wasn't pleased with CSU and thought about transferring at ( Read more... )

Well, today was dope so I figured I throw in a quick update. Me, Sara, and Jesse R3'd it down Steven's gulch. Right off the bat, Jesse got tossed out on the first wave train. Mind you, we have rules guides swimming and owing subsequent amounts of beer. With this noted, Jesse was one case in the hole. After some more sketch sections, we got through ( Read more... )

All I need right now is a hug.

Daylight savings time. Shouldn't this have gone out with FDR or something? Christ. Every year this fucks up my rotation and I have no clue how to beat it. Seriously, I know its spring and all, but what good does it do me to have the sun set at 7:45? Maybe I should make friends with the people in my neighborhood so we can have BBQs and play kickball ( Read more... )

Despite disliking the cold and my undeniable desire (lust?) for Spring, I can't help but love watching the snow drift down in the illuminated triangle of a distant street light. I'm also quite taken with the juxtaposition of the street light and view out my kitchen window where the snow falls in furious silence. The snow falls and tugs effotlessly ( Read more... )

Went and saw Motion City Soundtrack which was easily one of the best concerts I've seen in a long time. They really had everything together (lights, sound, color, performance) and did a good job of just letting everything flow. They didn't try too hard, which seems strange but really made the show great. Also, as we were making our way back to john ( Read more... )

My mom will be in AZ taking care of some family stuff on my birthday. That sucks, but it has to be done. Crew is going in a postive direction despite some resistance and various sticking points that need to be worked out. I cooked a pretty solid batch of vegetarian chili. Turning twenty in four days. I was looking forward to it for the most part, ( Read more... )
