I'm taking ballroom dancing classes. Assuming I can get Tuesdays off from work for two months starting in February. Michelle and I thought it would be fun, especially considering neither of us have any formal dancing skills. Gonna run us $109 each, for 8 weeks, I think. There's not really much to do lately, considering the shit weather, etc, so ( Read more... )

New Year's was a good time. Michelle and I went to Evan's place. He typically throws a good party, this time was no exception. Around 20 people showed up. A lot of snacks and alcohol were around. Evan bought three thirty-packs, and had some hard liquor as well. I knew a handful of the people there. Laurie came down from Boston. I recognized one or ( Read more... )

So now, almost all of my shopping is done. Finished up for Chris, Evan, Sara, and Michelle. Gotta buy one more thing for my mom, and still gotta find something for Austin. However, I still have to find something for my father. I'm still a bit clueless on what to get him. I better start thinking quickly, because there will be no Christmas Eve ( Read more... )

It's that time of year again. Tis the season. A part of my shopping is done. I bought Chris "Marvel Nemesis" for ps2. I also bought Michelle the new Family Guy DvD, a pack of long life AA batteries for her digicam, and a coffee mug with a picture of us inserted into it. I'd like to spend around $30 more on her, but I'm not sure what to get her yet ( Read more... )

Dan is getting married in March. I guess he's been engaged to his fiancee since August, so that's pretty fast. He will be the second cousin of mine to get married. Sara got married about two and a half years ago ( Read more... )

So I'm now 23. Kind of old if you ask me. Birthday turned out well. Last week on Friday, Michelle took me out to dinner at Red Lobster. We managed to get a nearly $70 tab with just the two of us. I also had a "Lobsterita" which was a frozen strawberry margarita. It was gigantic. One alcoholic drink, and it lasted me the entire dinner ( Read more... )

So much has happened, I don't even know where to begin. Keith is dead. That was two weeks ago or so. He got into a car accident, and was pronounced dead at the scene. It was early in the morning so I doubt alcohol was involved. Although knowing him, I wouldn't disregard that possibility. The aftershock of that was ugly though. His mother had a ( Read more... )

Well, I am officially single no longer. Michelle wanted to wait another month until we actually put the b/f-g/f label on, but it was her idea yesterday to do it now ( Read more... )

So ya. Things are the same for the most part. Life=work, friends, Michelle, not necessarily in that order. IDK. No real complaints I guess. Michelle came down to New Britain at the end of last week and hung out. The 'rents got to meet her. Well, my mom already had two weeks ago. My father got to meet her this time too though. Funny, we were hanging ( Read more... )

It's unbelievable how painfully boring my days off during the week can be. Today I did nothing. I went to court to get a couple things straightened out, and I have done NOTHING since. I've sat home and played DOTA for a good part of the afternoon. That's about it ( Read more... )
