Lexi and I just put an offer on a house. We spent three hours going over papers to sign just to say that we were interested in possibley buying the house. I dread actually trying to buy the thing now.

More to come.

I got a job last week.

I got a better job today.

That is all.

So, I have wonderful news, wonderful enough for me to actually (gasp!) post in livejournal about it. After numerous attempts to have my father arrested, sued, or otherwise punished by the state, my cousin has finally realized that she will never be able to get control of my aunts money again, so she's calling it quits. She called aunt vera the ( Read more... )

So last weekend I was sent to Pittsburgh for a conference. It was a Pax Christi conference, so everyone going was all super "love God" and hippieish. It was interesting. But there were so many strange things happening, and all at once, it's hard to keep it all straight, but I'll try ( Read more... )

I wrote sometime ago that for a while my life was going to be akin to a liesurely float downstream in raft (or some comparable comparison involving floating and water).

On the bright side, the press conference I had to speak at went well.

So I've been thinking the last few months, and I've decided that right now would be a good time to buy a few acres of land in Vermont. Lexi and I know we're going to go back up there, so my thinking is buy land while it's cheap, and even if we don't wind up there we can always keep it as an investment. Anyhow, so I've been searching around, and I ( Read more... )

So I found myself around 1 in the morning only a few exits from Lexi's pad. I'm in the right lane of the highway, cruising along, only going a little over the speed limit. I see an SUV ont he side of the road, and as I pass it, in its headlights are two men. On the ground. On is on his knees doubled over, and the other is facing him, on his knees, ( Read more... )

So I had a dream last night that I was driving down the highway and a acidentally rear ended this crappy beat up orange car. And who was driving it? None other than the Boston Red Sox right fielder Trot Nixon. So I invited Trot over to my house for a party ( Read more... )
