I was deeply saddened by the SNL/Ashlee Simposon debacle. Don't worry Ashlee, I'll still listen to your album at least once a day, though now I must wonder why your name is even on the album since you don't play your own guitar or (apparently) sing your own songs. God, let's just bring back the New Kids on the Block. Oh wait, already been done ( Read more... )

So the usual weekend stuff ( Read more... )

This is one of those "I've never felt so tired in my whole life" moments. Too bad I have nothing to show for that. It would be worth it if I could at least say that I cured AIDS or ran a marathon. But no. This week I wrote one piss-poor essay, one (hopefully) kick-ass essay, did a project, read a whole bunch of books, and celebrated Bill and ( Read more... )

Despite my endless sarcasm and occasional pessimism (understatement?) - I'm really an eternal optimist. What's most amazing about life is that you never know what is going to happen. Tomorrow something might happen that will completely change your life. You could learn something that opens new possibilities to you, or meet someone who becomes ( Read more... )

So since I go to Binghamton I haven't had class in 5 days due to Rosh Hasasanna. (Happy new year guys). I bummed around here for a few days and then Greyhound-ed it to Harrisburg, Pa to see Erika ( Read more... )

Weekend update! Not like we needed a three day weekend because classes just started...but hey, why wouldn't we go ahead and make it a four day weekend anyway? Alana came to visit on Thursday with her friend, so obviously we had to go out and celebrate her arrival at the Rat. A good time all around...it was ridiculous having Alana back (even if ( Read more... )

So it's time for the ceremonial leaving Caldwell/return to Binghamton summer rehash. It was a good summer. It's was my last summer (we think) working for the township. There's some talk of me not being home next summer...but let's be serious, I probably will be ( Read more... )

That's right, folks, I'm back. After 10 days in the mountains of New Hampshire, with no cell phone service, no computer, no internet, no work, and only hanging out with people related to me, I've returned to the real world. The biggest reality check of the day has been that I have to talk to people who I'm actually not related to (as I was ( Read more... )

Thank ye everyone for who wished me well on my birthday. Special shout outs to those who 1.) sang happy birthday on my phone 2.) brought me balloons that said "have a rainbow day" with Care Bears on it, and happy birthday with Barbie on it and 3.) gave me gifts relating to my nerdiness including a card making fun of Bush (YES GO KERRY '04!), books ( Read more... )

Who remembers setting off fireworks at Draz's house. You can always count on the Draucikas family to have a good stash of fireworks. This year's fourth of July has been kinda lame - I guess cause last year i was in DC and I don't think it's gets better than Independence Day in the Capitol. I didn't even go to the beach or anything. Oh well, it's ( Read more... )
