HOORAY!  After weeks of trying to find new pants I finally had lots of luck.  I've been trying to be cheap and also get pants that are already short so I don't have to get them hemmed.  I spent LOTS of money at Coldwater Creek and Banana Republic.  Yep the best part about losing weight is Banana Republic.  haha.  I bought three pairs of pants, a ( Read more... )

Changed my mind on friends only.  I've got nothing to hide. :)

Do I have any followers who want to be known?  Or things people would like to hear about?

That virus

a well-guarded cell membrane

Maybe I'll ( Read more... )

What I do at work when I wear the biohazard suit. :-D

Heading home from TX in a few hours.  We'll be back in MD sometime before midnight.  La la la.  Miss my homeys.

I'm in Dallas TX for the next couple of days.  Evan's aunt passed away on Friday and the funeral's on Tuesday.  I'm glad to be here for him and his family.  I'm glad my boss was ok with me missing a couple of days in school.  I'll be home on Wednesday night/Thursday am for work. 

Hey all.  I'm writing poetry again and very pleased about it.  I miss critiques and the community of being a writer.  It's a little more boring on my own.  Poor Jen sat with me while I wrote a sonnet last night and we laughed at the rhyming dictionary.

Also I've been reading some old journal entries.  Here are my thoughts:  Tom, why don't you post ( Read more... )
