As a few of my friends have pointed out (and as is the case with many of them as well)  a lot of us have nothing new to say. It's the same topic/story/thought process that's existed for weeks and months. Maybe that explains the lack of entries by some friends on my list, myself included ( Read more... )

A year ago at this time, I wrote an entry about how my friend Chelsea had returned home to Salt Lake to visit from New York and how much I was looking forward to seeing her. The same thing happened on that trip that happens on every trip: she tells me she's coming and talks up just how much she misses me and can't wait to see me, tells me she'll ( Read more... )

Did you know that only 6 of the 92 Natalie Imbruglia debut CD's sold on eBay in the last two weeks and that none sold for more than $1.00? This is why my spare copy will continue to sit on my shelf forever,

I haven't popped on here since before I lost my job (which was in mid-June) and in those months I realized that I was missing out on what was happening in the lives of my friends. Unfortunately, at that time I also had my mini act of rebellion of deciding that if it were truly important enough that they'd probably tell me about it in person. It was ( Read more... )

Because I know you're one of the few who read what I write consistantly and frankly, you suck at replying to emails and are even worse at making plans in person:

Chelsea:

Don't take my words out of context, assume they're about you  ( Read more... )

I was really bad at posting comments yesterday, because I somehow ended up posting what was supposed to be a comment on my friend Matt's status about playing a show in Denali (where Bree will be living until September) and ended up with it being my status.  I didn't catch it until she posted a comment about it and realized she was the person I was ( Read more... )

No sooner do I do my Angela Chase "Blister In The Sun" dance about my computer going five or six days without acting up then it begins to do exactly that, including once when I was working on a document. I went through the familiar process of restarting it a few times and it's been stable with no signs of errors for the last five hours or so ( Read more... )

In mid-January, a fuse accident caused the power supply on my computer to become fried and my second hard drive to become completely corrupted and unreadable. This drive was partitioned into two drives, and partition one contained all of my Doctor Who episodes and four years of voice memos from my digital recorder. Drive two was solely devoted to ( Read more... )

Jack Kemp died.

He was one of the very few Republicans that I could really get behind, and that happened primarily in his years after his political retirement. He had the traditional conservative Republican beliefs, but he was also for tax cuts and worked to help the poor and was always gracious and charitable.

Despite him retiring from football 40 ( Read more... )

Egads! My friends suck! Present company excluded, my Thursday night was spent worrying that a phone call would disrupt Who night because it was expected in the middle of it. I waited for it on Friday and then again on Saturday. By the time it finally came, I missed it, and my call back was never returned ( Read more... )
