Missed me much?  I was Internetless for about a week but now…. there is wireless!  I’m psyched, as a nerd like me would be.   Honestly, not too much has happened in a week.  That whole work-sleep-work-sleep pattern continued.  It rained pretty heavily then became humid.  I found myself wanting to go to Comic-Con while reading Whitney’s [...]

I wasn’t going to get it. My sister has it, we live in the same place, so why do I need one?  It saves money, it saves energy, and it saves trees. That’s what I told myself. But I can’t explain how after hanging out with Jennie on Saturday night, I found myself driving to the [...]

Remember that scene in Empire Records when AJ is thinking of how to tell Corey that he loves he and he says, “You know that feeling when you get out of a warm bath… well… you make me feel, you make me feel like a bath? Ugh.” That line’s not going to woo anyone, but damn, that [...]

I was driving down my lane yesterday when out of the corner of my eye, I notice a slight movement on the seat next to me.  I take a closer look, and it was this odd bug about the size of my pinky nail.  It’s markings almost perfectly matched the brown carpet on the seat; [...]

Remember how My So-Called Life was released on video in like, ’98?  This was before DVDs and before most TV shows were even put on video.  The only other show I can remember from that time on video was Buffy. MSCL was an amazing show (coming to DVD October 30!), but now that its coming to [...]

There are a few things that I love about where I grew up.  Obviously, my family is here, and I love them, even for how crazy they drive me.  Gas prices are generally a dime cheaper than Pittsburgh, which is still cheaper than the national average.  Plus, I could (and will) write a myriad of [...]

I’m clueless when it comes to spotting atheletes.  Most could bag my groceries and I’d just think they look really strong. I know many would find me crazy for not recognizing the famous fit ones in my presence, but if you think about it, can you honestly can you blame me?  Sports require helmets. Helmets [...]

The shirt my sister made for the HP premier:  She’s pretty much cooler than I’ll ever be. Someone else who’s cooler than me: the guy who went from Oregon to Idaho in a lawn chair with 105 balloons. When I told my mom about it, I mistakenly told her it was ”somewhere between 150 and 190 balloons.” [...]

I wish it was possible to blog using mental telepathy. There are so many moments when I want to blog, but I’m stuck doing something else, like driving, which requires me to be away from a computer but not necessary using my full mental capabilities. I can’t believe how incredibly nerdy I am to think [...]

I spent my Fourth trying to find the beauty in old places. Then I went to my Grams, where I discussed books with my teenage cousins, ate hot dogs, and played Wii Tennis. I don’t know if I’m going to see Gary Jules tomorrow, but I’m going to eat here with good friends and I’m very excited.
