Full. My brain is full. Then again, if you consider the fact that we don't use the majority of our brains, I guess my brain isn't really full at all. It just feels full, and that's close enough for me. Why do we only use 5% (or whatever the statistic is) of our brains, anyway?! Maybe we just suck at making brain power measuring devices, and we ( Read more... )

I despise, loathe and hate caffeine. It is the devil. It sucks you in, messes you up, and spits you out. Yet, this morning, I find myself drinking black tea, which is loaded with caffeine. Why? Because if I don't, I will pass out right here, right now, and my head will land on the keyboard typing out a block of illegible letters af;iosb.nawewm. Not ( Read more... )

I have a tendency to pay attention to the details in life. I believe it is those small things that make the big things more special, and it is also those small things that bind everything together. If you miss them, you risk missing the point and will never truly appreciate life. Often, that tendency of mine gives me a unique perspective on life, ( Read more... )

I'm driving down the road, heading home from work. Traffic is typical, people are cutting each other and me off, but something about this commute is strange. There are near accidents everywhere, and no one seems to be looking at where they're going. Instead, they're all looking at me. Why, I have no idea, but I can only deduce that they are all out ( Read more... )

I found myself at a club in the D last weekend (btw, is it still cool to call Detroit "the D"?). It was the club's Alice in Wonderland private party. And yes, there were mushrooms and cupcakes. After a few overpriced and underwhelming vodka-and-cokes, I took the advice of a friend and ordered a martini, or two. Twenty minutes later, I was higher ( Read more... )

Some things that I haven't done lately:

• written in my LiveJournal
• kissed a girl (at least that I can remember)
  
• finished a side-project
• kicked a cat
• called old friends

People at work are completely retarded today. They're making my head hurt. They need to go away. One more hour to go...

Ok so I hate mornings. I hate getting up, I hate showering, and I hate driving to work. Yes, I know hate is a strong word, but rest assured, my hatred for mornings runs deep. I just blame it on my biorhythms.

When I'm getting ready, I usually put on the radio that I have sitting on the counter in my bathroom. It's a high-quality Kmart special, and ( Read more... )

I was running around the crappy indoor track at the gym yesterday, and heard Paul Abdul and M.C. Skat Cat's "Opposites Attract" song over the gym speakers. If that's not motivating to one's workout, I don't know WHAT is.

This summer, I did something that I've always wanted to do, but never thought I would. I went to Europe. Melissa met me in London after completing a summer abroad program in Moscow, and we spent the next 18 days hopping from England, to Italy, and finally to France. The weather didn't always cooperate, and the exchange rate was absolute shit, but ( Read more... )
