Okay peeps.  I know it's been a long time since the last update.  I'm not even really sure who's still out there reading this, but if you are, here you go...

Since my last birthday update in October 2006, I have done the following:

- Quit my job as a dispatcher for the UCI police department
- Put myself through bartending school (I finished top of my ( Read more... )

I may have written my last entry a little prematurely.  My actual birthday did go fairly well (for me), aside from being stuck at work all day.  It was the day after my birthday that was a major downer.  I had to wake up early Tuesday morning so that I could make it for my dentist appointment.  I decided it would be a lovely idea to ride my bike to ( Read more... )

Today I turn 23 on the 23rd.  That's kinda cool, I guess.  Funny how this is the first birthday I can remember actually feeling older.  There's just something about turning 23 that makes me think, "Okay, you've been out of college for a year.  What have you done with your life?  And what are you going to do for the rest of it?"  And I don't really ( Read more... )

Bah!

I want to get two coffee table books.  I'm looking for a book about Salvador Dali that talks about his life and shows most of his art.  That would be fantastic.  I'm also looking for the same type of book with MC Escher's work.  I spent some time researching books on amazon, but it's quite hard to tell from the online descriptions if the books I ( Read more... )

But they're probably trying to be anti-racist and all-inclusive.  Unfortunately, this only makes the shows seem more racist.  Oh well...

So I’ve noticed an interesting thing about the daytime court shows.  In most of the shows the judge and bailiff are a mixed duo (one member being black, the other being white).  Allow me to demonstrate…

Damnit! Another grammatical error. "There's (an) Time Life infomercial."

I'm a dweeb.
