So, despite my better intentions, I'm seething with jealousy. Miss Cassie has apparently managed to find herself with the attentions of numerous suitors, at least one of which she seems interested in herself. I don't know what I'm going to do, but I certainly don't want to go through a nightmare of competition and mistrust. But, I don't really ( Read more... )

Still at Zingerman's. Had a hermitage of sorts from most of the people I communicated with, due to the lack of a cell-phone. It's amazing how difficult it is for me to get by without one now, when a few years ago I mocked folks for answering their ringing pocket ( Read more... )

So, I still work at Zingerman's delicatessen, and I really love my job. It's doing wonders for my confidence in dealing with people, and I've learned endless amounts about good food. But it's sucking away all my free time, which is really a shame, because once again, I've found myself with my interest actually engaged ( Read more... )

Mmm... My life, and everything about it that you could possibly want to know ( Read more... )

Moved to Lake in the Woods in Ypsilanti, MI. It is quite nice there. I have a lake right outside my house and a golf course I can use in my gated community. I feel like I've arrived. Except I don't boat or golf, and the low-flying planes passing overhead ruin my conception of a paradise. And when I leave I'm in the midst of a somewhat ( Read more... )

Alas, this truly is a sad sad day. My personal radio hero, Mr. Clay Pigeon has retired from the job of producing the genius show Mondo Eclectica each week. This truly comes as a shock, and really has left me quite down in the dumps. Although the entirety of WMNF's program has been one of my favorite things about living in Florida, Mondo ( Read more... )

Well, here it is, what is likely my final night in this state. I'm moving back to the great white north tomorrow. Michigan. And I'm excited. It's amazing what distance and nearly a year of desperate loneliness will do for your appreciation of a location. I couldn't wait to get out of there, now I can hardly wait to get back ( Read more... )

First, the superficial. The world of sports loves me this year. My Tampa Bay Lightning just won Lord Stanley's Cup a few days ago, and now my Pistons are about to finish off the Lakers and win the NBA championship. I'm pretty pleased, and enjoy every time I turn my television on to watch these games, although I'm going to miss the seasons, because ( Read more... )

Seiklus 2.5mb

Above is the link for Seiklus, an absolutely fantastic freeware adventure game. One of the finest and most refreshing adventure games I've played in a long time. Very non-linear, non-violent, and simply charming. Somewhat short, can be finished over the course of an evening if you've a mind for it, but truly magnificent. Give it a

So today, I woke up and was planning to head out for my usual breakfast routine of coffee and reading. Step out to my driveway and find my car has a flat tire. Bollocks ( Read more... )
