After a weekend filled with potential fun, I come back unrefreshed with more frustration than smiles. My primary source of frustration has to be the deeper one. The one that has smoldered for a long time, and I'm simply tired of it. And that is the societal norms that americans hold themselves to for no good reason whatever ( Read more... )

Today is the first day in a while that I've really thought about something important to me. My opinions didn't change, they rarely do, but I've come to a few new conclusions. These are the statements of a half sick, very tired individual, so I apologize in advance for the incoherence ( Read more... )

I've watched both the presidential debate and the vice-presidential debates and I've come to one major conclusion: our vice-presidential candidates are better suited to be presidents than the presidential ones. Cheney and Edwards are both professional and committed to policies. Besides that they know what they're talking about and don't take ( Read more... )

So, I had a great weekend. Saturday as I've already said was loads of fun, and my step-brother did win his football game. Then Sunday was a very enjoyable day. I got to visit Amy while watching the Lions get their asses stomped. After that I spent the remainder of the day with a cute girl who lives in GR. :) All in all it was a superb weekend.

Another great Saturday. I wish they happened more frequently... like 6 days a week. Started the day with a golf tournament. That was all kinds of fun. It was a 4 person scramble, which allows you to do all kinds of stupid things you'd never usually do. Afterwords, role-playing was fun as ever. Now, it's time to sit back and relax with a good book.

This weather lately has been incredible. I hope hurricanes continue to pummel the southeast, so long as this weather keeps up. Even if the weather doesn't keep up, the south is dirty and needs a good washing.

Saturdays are quickly becoming my favorite days. Adam had another football game today, he won 12-10 and had a key interception on the 2 yard line with 7 minutes to go in the game to seal it. Really pretty awesome. Besides that I got to sleep in a little, then got in a few decent ToB games with Rowain. On top of that it's role-playing day, and Adam ( Read more... )

I cannot comprehend why it is so bloody difficult to get people to read a great book. Is it because they do not want their favorite book to be eclipsed by something else? Are they afraid that after reading such a good book that all else will pale in comparison and they'll be lost to reading? I just don't understand, and no matter how much evidence ( Read more... )

Have you ever been with a girl and you thought everything was great, then nothing? It's like getting cross-checked while you're on a breakaway. Everything is going just how you wanted, then Blam a 240lb ox of a man just stopped you dead in your tracks while the puck slides harmlessly past the goal. The worst thing about it, is that at least when ( Read more... )

Well, it seems to be the peak of my non-sports season. I'm bowling in 2 leagues (just subbing in 1) and golfing in another. The first 3 days of my week have been filled with non-sports, and my weekends tend to get clogged with nerdom. What I'm trying to say here, is that my free time has dropped considerably. It doesn't seem like I do a whole ( Read more... )
