Welcome 2006
2006 is setting itself up to be a big year for me. I turn 25. I marvel at the fact that I am that old. I don't feel any older than I did when I was 18. The major questions remain. In fact, they've probably gotten more confusing. I'm going to try and tackle them this year. Of course, the New Year always starts off with great expectations, new ( Read more... ) -
Hello Stranger
Yes! An update! I promise to try to be more consistent in the New Year. So what is going on in the life of Michael Bullerman you ask? Well, I'll tell you. It is finals time, baby! And am I ready? No! My first final is December 19th, so, a week from "today". Then I have a final on the 21st, and finally, one on the 22nd. The silver lining is ( Read more... ) -
Wheel of Time
So I finished Knife of Dreams yesterday. It was, for lack of a better word, fanfuckingtastic. It's everything I wanted from Crossroads of Twilight but didn't get. There were passages in it that literally made me cry. The last battle calls, so you all need to read it so we can talk about it. -
words cannot adequately describe the joy that we feel
The Chicago White Sox. 2005 World Series Champions. A title drought starting in 1917 destroyed. Lifelong Sox fans dreams come true. A world series. And a whole bunch of fun in the process ( Read more... ) -
In the spirit of full disclosure
Roger Ebert's review of Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is hardly as glowing as my own. I just really enjoyed the movie, the comedy was top notch I thought. Nevertheless, I still advise seeing it -
World Series and Murder
Yay! the White Sox won game one of the world series last night. I can't tell you all how much I love this team. They're so fun to watch. They do everything. I mean, hell, Carl Everett, a basher, bunted men over last night. And had a pretty heads up baserunning play that got us a run. And then when he was in the dugout you see Aaron Rowand had ( Read more... ) -
White Sox love
It's stuff like this that chokes me up. From Scoop Jackson's column on ESPN
"I knew it was serious when grown men began crying on the radio.
Announcers. Show hosts. Been South Side since they were born and had to
defend this team, not just all year long but all their lives.
They broke down. I won't name names. They know who they are."
"I knew ( Read more... ) -
World Series Tickets
OK, the way the White Sox (and I don't necessarily know that I should fault the White Sox specifically, or just professional baseball franchises) have dealt with this World Series tickets is slightly despicable. I love the Sox, but this is just wrong. OK, so the Cell (which I incidentally think is a far cooler name than Comiskey, though without ( Read more... ) -

Happy WoT day, everyone
Knife of Dreams comes out today!!!!! I'm so excited for this book. I'm going to hold off on getting it for a while though because I'm pretty busy this week with this stupid thesis statement I have to turn in tomorrow and then Jason's wedding this weekend. That's right, Chicago people, I'm going to be in the city this weekend, however, I probably ( Read more... )
