I've been a little self-satisfied lately with things like my physical shape and my ability to do productive things even though I have nothing but leisure time. As much as I get on other people about discipline and self-control, I'd better shape up myself real quick, or I'm gonna be looking like a serious hypocrite ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning wide awake at 0530. I have no explanation for this whatsoever except that it may be the first day in weeks that I haven't had at least two drinks within a few hours of sleeping ( Read more... )

I'm pretty sure the box of fortune cookies is broken. It's been returning not only inane blather the last dozen or so attempts, but 80+% of the last week's fortunes have been reruns. This is all well and good however, because I'm kinda not feeling the need for oracular confirmation of my decisions any more ( Read more... )

I had something profound and significant to say about this subject earlier, but now I mostly don't remember it.

wow, a little more of that these days, and my life may actually be easier to handle! Anyway, I just got notified that I will not be granted admission to the George Washington University School of Law for next year. That's fine, I had mostly given up on the idea of that school anyway, but it's interesting to gague the kind of selectivity schools ( Read more... )

I drove out to see my brother yesterday, it being one of his last few days here before returning to Iraq for another few months.
