They'll be a load o' compromisin'
Funny thing - I just noticed the last two entries I've made to my journal I accidentally flagged as Private, so I've just been writing to myself. ha ha.
Anyway, big changes goin down. First thing is Rob has gotten hired to teach an art history class at the school where he graduated, so now he can officially add "adjunct professor" to his resume ( Read more... ) -
Fargo
Just spent two weeks in Fargo once again. I'm starting to like that town. Sometimes I think I could live there. But then again . . . The best part was over the weekend I drove down to Minneapolis to visit my mom and sister and my totally cute 3 year old niece. We played with balloons for about 3 hours. She never gets tired.I love how, with ( Read more... ) -
Easter - good time for a resurrection
AHHHHHH!!!!!! Okay, remind me never to do THAT again. I go a little stircrazy without some kind of outlet for spewing my opininons about society and everything I think is wrong with it. Bottling it up is a bad idea. Must. Have. Outlet. And I am missing my LJ friends! Okay. So, here I am. Back on the great LJ highway.

(Untitled)
Ok.
I am finally coming to terms with the fact that I just don’t have time to LJ as much as I would like. Therefore, rather than letting my poor journal dwindle on indefinitely, taking up cyber space, which I’ve been doing, I’ve decided to give it a proper send-off. This will be my last post. This journal was a lot of fun, and meant a lot to ( Read more... ) -
Fur
Finally saw “Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus” this weekend. I really liked it, but wow, it was so much like Secretary. Everything about it-how all the actors whisper their lines, the coloring and ambience of the set, the theme of personal growth and exploration of ‘unconventional’ desires. You’d swear it was like, the same characters, ( Read more... ) -
Kid in a Candy Store
Not much is new. Just got back from a week in Fargo. Fargo! Gone are my exotic travelin’ days I guess. But Fargo was actually quite fun. I was there for my company’s annual meeting of database engineers. A nice gathering of about 30 nerds from around the globe (mostly Europeans), of which there are only three females, including me (chick ( Read more... ) -
My Favorite Hair Band
My D drive crashed on Friday. God! Why?? Lost most of my i-tunes. Guess it’s my own fault, since I hadn’t backed it up since 2005. Oops. I ran a bunch of those free programs which try to recover it, but no luck. I’m sending it out for diagnosis by a recover y place, but I hear it’s about 2 grand for them to actually recover the data, if it’s ( Read more... ) -
Go to the Mirror, Boy
Stayed up until about 3 in the morning last night watching The Who's Tommy, just because I had never seen it. Ummm . . . .huh? Such wonderful songs when The Who performs them, but the way they are being presented in the movie is just . . . is just . . . But no, it's an interesting concept, but one of those films which, if it had been done in the ( Read more... ) -
Title to Be Determined
In the middle of Pennsylvania the wide black highway swelled upward into a gigantic hill which thrust itself impossibly high from deep below the ground and loomed before him like a black cloud, blocking his progress, threatening to unleash itself upon him at any moment. Jimmy remembered how his yellow Camaro never used to notice the highway's ( Read more... )
