I write about love quite often, because it does make up a lot of what I think and feel. I've even tried to understand love. Lately, I've come to realise that I will never understand it ( Read more... )

Mute + Sarah.

That's all I'm going to say.

Today, gile got truly stupid.

Friday, while moving into my dorm room, I blew the radiator core on my car. I made it all the way, but I needed a new radiator. I still do.

Tonight, I took Sarah (see muteddenial if you can) to Buffalo to pick up a friend of hers. In my car. With the blown radiator. We made it there, but as soon as I got on the thruway to ( Read more... )

alcohol + paxil == great justice.

that is all.

Lately, I've taken to manually selecting what songs to listen to, because pure random across my collection leads to harsh jumps into music I'd rather not hear played together ( Read more... )

That memory goes to the WallStreet From Hell™ that I'll be working on in a week or two ( Read more... )

I officially hate Unix as of now.

I guess it's a good thing I didn't ask about going to Summer Camping. Turns out that anti-depressant medication doesn't mix so well with alcohol. As you might have gleaned from the previous statement, I had my appointment with the doctor today. Wherein he confirimed that I do indeed have depression, and (with my permission) put me on Paxil.
