Well, I had a really nice birthday. I went to dinner the night before with my parents because I was supposed to start my ASM job the night of my birthday, but the run that was planned for that evening wound up getting cancelled. Oh well. We ate at Stir Crazy, where I had the most amazing miso glazed seabass. The next morning, I got up to open ( Read more... )

Happy birthday to Drew Lachey, JC Chasez, The Edge and Robin Quivers!

Oh yeah, and to me, too.

What a nice day today. Had a lovely birthday lunch with Elizabeth at La Bamba, then hung at her place for a little while. She got me Pokemon Pearl for the DS, which I'll start as soon as I finish FFIV (I'm about to enter the Dark Elf's cave, one of the few parts of the game I dread). I kind of want to start Pokemon now, but if I jump into ( Read more... )

So, prompted by Matt's vinyl hunting post, I decided to go on a little hunt of my own today. See, a couple weekends ago, Carmen and I visited one of my favorite places to get vinyl, Uncle Sam's in Lauderhill. They just recently moved to a new location in the same plaza and I wanted to check it out. It was heartbreaking. The new space is tiny ( Read more... )

So, without realizing all the hype surrounding it, I started reading Twilight last week after picking it up on sale at Target. The writing tends toward the teenage girl demographic (okay, we get it, Edward Cullen is beautiful, we don't need a reminder of how Bella is affected by this in each paragraph), but it's pretty intriguing so far. I'm ( Read more... )

Oh, Square. Your endless re-tooling and re-releasing of the Final Fantasy catalogue has reached a particularly precarious juncture: the new version of Final Fantasy IV for the DS. I was all for the GBA port of the game, despite its occasional glitches, because it allowed me to take my favorite game ever with me anywhere I went. But my favorite ( Read more... )

Lots happening in the last week. Monday night was the staged reading of Summer Brave, for which I was actually a bit nervous. I hadn't had much time to do a lot of work on my character, so I didn't feel quite as prepared as I could have been, and the fact that I hadn't performed outside of scenes for class and juries got to me a little. In the ( Read more... )

I'm at a Starbucks right now. I brought my laptop to work with me today and this was a rare instance wherein we were not actually needed during the show itself, so we're currently cut for the couple hours that the show is running. So, while I could be spending this time going over my script for tomorrow, I am at Starbucks posting to LiveJournal ( Read more... )

I just re-watched Batman Begins in preparation for tomorrow night's midnight showing of The Dark Knight. I had forgotten how they'd set up the Joker being in the next installment at the end like that. I'm also looking forward to Maggie Gyllenhaal taking over Katie Holmes's role. It's kind of sad; I once quite liked Katie, but really I think that ( Read more... )

Don't get me wrong; I love where I work and what I do. But I am definitely not feelin' it this morning. I swear, give a guy a few days off and it's back to that lazy mentality. I'll be fine once I get there, but the whole getting up and going thing is proving difficult today.
