My first day of graduate school is tomorrow.

If someone told me ten years ago that I would have even graduated college, I would have laughed in their face.

If someone told me I'd be doing anything at 28 besides drinking cheap PBR and working at a warehouse, I would have thought they were out of their heads.

You know what? This Kenny Chesney/Darius Rucker/Reverend Horton Heat concert in CA is all kinds of WTF.

It's Guy Fawkes Day over in the UK.

Lets blow some stuff up, ja?

Just voted. Here's hoping America makes the right choice.

Tomorrow morning, no shit, is Election Day.

I hope and pray Barack Obama will win. For the past eight years, America's international reputation has been continually smeared by George W. Bush. He's alienated close allies and set our foreign policy back 25 years in the process.

We need a change. A change, that is, that is not a raging Alaska theocrat with admittedly nice legs....

I let my old SG account lapse and just reopened it.

Let the good times begin.
