Here we stand, on the verge of summer. It's arrived for some, but up here in the frozen north, we deal with weather that has more conflicting whims than a kid with ADD in an arcade. It's warm, it's hot, it's cold, it's raining, it's foggy, it's humid... and that's all before lunch. School is almost out, however, and that'll be nice, as it starts...

Been a while, I know. I've been busy. Got my car back, good as new. They even detailed it for me! It was like driving a brand new car right off the lot, with my CDs already in the disc changer. Also got accepted to grad school for Professional Writing... that'll be nice, especially if I can figure out how I'm going to pay for...

It's alive... IT'S ALIIIIVVVEEEE!!!!

From the ashes of my former computer, The Beast, has arisen a new monster, capable of both higher math and an ungodly array of time wasting applications...

... I call it...

FRANKENBEAST!

bwahahahaha....

*ahem* sorry bout that. Got a little excited. I like to consider myself pretty technically savvy, but even I was expressing doubts about buying a brand spankin' new...

And now, a moment of silence for my computer.



Thank you. My computer, affectionately referred to as "The Beast," has died. It was a sudden thing, that happened in the wee hours of the morning of Saturday the 28th of May. From 0130 to approximately 0245, I was playing City of Heroes, and then I had turned in for the night. At approximately 0300,...

gah.

Jello shots are the work of the devil.

I went out for a relaxing evening, only to have it turn into a drunken debauchery reminiscent of my college days. This could be because I was drinking with college students, something that I should know not to do anymore. Holy Christ on a corndog, I got hammered. Still hungover now, and it's 1 in the...

Monday yet again... This week has been busy, to say the least. My dad was out, and everything was awesome. My house is clean, I have new furniture, all sorts of good stuff. We went to New York for the weekend and went to the Met, saw a show, walked around times square, and had a beer at McSorley's. Good times had by all... more...

I've seemingly kicked the ick that made me sick.

'course, now that I say that, I'll have a hell of a remission.

My dad is in town to give a speech to a bunch of knuckleheads on what it means to be a leader... and by knuckleheads I mean my students.

We've already seen the national whaling museum, that was pretty cool, and seen Kingdom...

:ugh:
sick all weekend. I was sick from right after my last class on Friday, and I'm still sick this morning... though thankfully not as much. All weekend I had soup and instant grits, OJ and water. Faith came down Saturday night and took care of me, brought me a thermometer, food, medicine, and a movie.

I do feel better today, like I've exorcised(sp?) the...

My god, but I've been putting some mileage on my car. Drove down to New York after my last class on Thursday, for my friend Jamie's birthday. A good time was had by all - even met up with my friend Brooke, whom I hadn't seen in 10 years, not since we graduated high school. We were all out carousing till about 3, then crashed...

Wednesday - hump day.

Or not, considering I haven't even christened my new bed, yet.

Working on graduate studies admission, but instead of writing my statement of purpose I'm updating my journal here and telling all of you about how I should be writing my statement of purpose instead of updating... dear lord I've just gone cross-eyed.

I also spend way too much time at...

So it's Monday again.

It's amazing how for people that really want me to like them, they constantly treat me like shit.

Friday I go to see a show put on by my friend and her theater troupe in Providence, about an hour away from my house. I enjoyed the show, and afterwards I went out and had a few drinks with her. At one,...
