HEY! Sorry it's been ages... I guess I've been too busy living my life to have time to write about it ( Read more... )

DUDE! Tom will be here in 2 days. I'm nearly peeing my pants. Good thing I've got 2 more days at work to temper my excitement. Temper isn't the right word, I think "beat into oblivion" is more appropriate.

It was rough going, pretty steep ( Read more... )

So... the rain and cold are bad, but not as bad as sitting around in my apartment is, so I ventured out today. I actually hopped on a train to go watch 'Hang 'em High', starring none other than Clint Eastwood, with Jess. OH MAN! It was awesome!!
