I'm back again.  I had fun with the format of the last entry, so once again I'll be taking the "short reviews" approach to just about everything that's happened to me since then.  Here goes...

Say Anything:  I've seen a fair number of concerts in my day, and this was one of the best, though it started with a whimper.  Opening band The Casual Lean ( Read more... )

It's been a little while since last I updated.  I'm not sure if and when I'll get to that summer fiction I hinted at in the last post, but we'll see.  If nothing else I have plenty of inspiration (the drive home to Shannock at night sometimes freaks me the hell out).  Until then, I'll just spend the next 15 minutes or so highlighting things that ( Read more... )

It's been a damn long time since I've updated this, and quite a bit has happened.

For starters, I have an apartment now.  It's in Shannock, which is a tiny little village wedged between Richmond and Charlestown.  It's only about 10 minutes from URI and it doesn't take as long as you'd expect to shoot up Rt 2 to the highway.  The place is half of a ( Read more... )

Hello, friends.  I got a job in Warwick, and I've already been working it for two days.  How am I doing this?  By mooching off of family friends.  I'd kind of like to stop doing that though, and am currently still looking for apartments.  Anyone who has and good connections to landlords willing to give me a place to live for at least a year for $ ( Read more... )

Yup, I'm still alive.  Here's a quick update on my current status, and another fun music quiz because I still believe in providing some kind of entertainment value on this thing.

First up, I'm sure people are wondering which state I'm in right now.  Well, the house in Narragansett fell through, so I'm in Vermont for the time being, licking my ( Read more... )

Oh, you'd better believe I ganked another one of these from my Friends page.  Maybe one day I'll start writing entries with some substance again, but for now this is just too fun.

Go to your music player of choice and put it on shuffle.
Say the following questions aloud, and press play.
Use the song title as the answer to the question.
NO CHEATING.

How ( Read more... )

So this has come up a couple times on my Friends page.  Since I'm a big music dork, this appealed to me, so here goes.

Your Life: The Soundtrack
So here's how it works:
Open your choice of music player [iTunes, Limewire, Kazaa, etc.] and put it on shuffle. Press play. For every question type the song that's on. And when you go to a new question ( Read more... )

Hello all.  It's been a little while, and with Livejournal being choked by the annual rush of entries related to the end of the school year, I figured I'd add mine to the mix.

So is this a big life-changing ending/new beginning for me like it is for a good number of my friends?  Yes and no.  I'll still be an undergrad for another semester, but now ( Read more... )

Hello, all.  I've survived the weekend, and my head is finally clear enough from Living Proof to actually talk about Living Proof.

In terms of actually bringing in money and getting an amazing turnout, LP fest, to which I have devoted the greater part of a year, was a spectacular failure.  But oh, what a fun failure it was...

I worked overnight ( Read more... )

Living Proof may start in ernest on Saturday, but technically it starts tomorrow.  Here's what my weekend looks like so far...

Tomorrow afternoon- meetings, last-minute briefings, maybe even some dinner.
Tomorrow evening- I hang out on campus, all over campus, all frigging night as I help out with overnight security.  For those of you planning on ( Read more... )
