Ok, time for another update. Not much going on. People ask me to post, which in itself surprises me - I don't lead a terribly interesting life these days. Things with Laura are progressing, but at the same time nothing is changing - basically I'm just seeing lots of new sides of her that I've either completely missed or she's hidden from me. I can ( Read more... )

Since I haven't updated my journal in a while - now seemed like as good a time as any. I've spend the passed two weeks pretty sick, but whatever I had seems to be fading at last. Unfortunately not before I passed it on to Laura, and now she's in a pretty bad shape. She has an antibiotic now and I'm sure she'll be feeling much better in a couple of ( Read more... )

This weekend could be summed up in one word - insane. In a nutshell, I drove 1000 miles, clubbed until I dropped, went three days without any sleep, replaced just about all my blood with alcohol, and had more fun than I have since I was in college.

I'm sure that a majority of people with a journal are going to rant about the election, so here's my contribution ( Read more... )

This past weekend was yet another busy weekend - and the aura of Halloween was definitely present the entire time. From mid-day Friday, for some odd reason, everything seemed slightly surreal. Friday night was a night in and I hadn't been getting enough sleep in the previous few nights, so I ended up going to bed a little on the early side (which ( Read more... )

So what do you do when you're asked to give the toast at a wedding reception, but you don't see any way the bride and groom are going to make it? My sister and her fiance are a couple who is together for no good reason - they have never been a good couple, and I don't see them making much more than a year. What's more, I don't know this guy in the ( Read more... )

Last night was probably the most emotionally difficult night I've had in quite some time. I got on the phone with my friend, the one who needed to find out about the jackass she was seeing, and we dug in. So here friend never told her a thing - there's a big surprise - leaving it all up to me. I started out calmly and rationally explaining first ( Read more... )

It's a slow day here at work, so while I have some time to jot some thoughts down... It's been a physically and emotionally draining couple of days. I guess it started Sunday when I got IM'd by a friend of a friend telling me that my friend was being manipulated by a guy she recently started seeing. That her (the friend of a friend) boyfriend, and ( Read more... )
