We don't fight fair.
I don't have any special wisdom imparted to me for turning 30, except that the day of was made especially interesting by out of town Alabamians, drunken blonde women, and a certain Tony Hughes. I wasn't joking when I said I never expected to make it this far, so who knows what will happen now.

I'm not gonna tell you about the dance epidemic.
I got home from my Christmas/NY adventure last night at a little after midnight. The short of it is this - we took off from Austin on the 23rd, stayed in the KC area till the 28th, flew to Chicago, drove to Grand Rapids Michigan, stayed there for NY and are now back home. The cats have not let us leave their sight since we came in the front door.

Cheer up baby, it wasn't always quite as bad.
Had a good, if stressing weekend. This is mostly a reminder to myself to actually write about it before the memory slips away. I'm just killing time as my computer scans itself uselessly while I try and figure out what's wrong with it. I'm just fucking exhausted from every goddamned step and every motherfucking thing being a fight for the past ( Read more... ) -
The only way to cope is to realize.
Insurance called last week and decided the car was a total loss. RIP War Wagon, only a year and some change old. The adjustor even had the gall to mention that since I was getting some money back (it was worth more than I owed on it) things "worked out pretty well". I know what he meant, which was that I could have been hospitalized and owing on a ( Read more... ) -
I'm walking on a wire.
Time to steal another What I've Learned. This month we're ripping off Joan Jett, a feat that many others have been doing for decades, so I don't feel so bad about it.
There's this thing... about talking to people and helping them work out their problems. Time just flies, even if they rattle on endlessly about stuff that should be boring. If I could ( Read more... ) -
Troubled times, you know I cannot lie.
So I haven't gotten around to really writing about the wreck.
I was driving back to work from Catholic Charities last Tuesday and it was raining. I had spent a good part of my time there talking with parents and whatnot and I made a few cracks about how Austin drivers simply cannot function properly in the rain, knowing little of the foreshadowing ( Read more... ) -
Send a letter - bombs away.
Not alot going on. Work is winding down from the summer, which means less travel and more "sit on the office and deal with paperwork" time. This excites me much like the prospect of a new color Power Ranger might intrigue a blind man. Dealing with bureaucracy is something I have been cursed to excel at, making me a de facto pencil pusher here in ( Read more... ) -
That bug bit me, I'll admit.
Teh hueg bbq yesterday. Drank a little too much and sat out in front of the grill for hours in the sun, which has me in a predictable gross state of body right now. Don't have too much to say about the past week except I have to go to the comic store this coming week because I found out the guy who runs events there is confused as to why his " ( Read more... )
