Sometimes ten years doesn't seem like that long. I had my tenth high school reunion before I knew it, I didn't go but it didn't stop me from noticing and thinking, "damn what happened to the last ten years?"

Sometimes ten years seems like a fucking chasm. I work with and manage a slew of people that are in their mid-twenties and I pretty routinely...

It's a little after midnight and I am sitting in my apartment listening to every album I owned in 1994, which was a seminal year for me. So far I have listened to:
A Tribe Called Quest, Tori Amos, Flaming Lips, Belly, Throwing Muses, Jimmy Buffet, Too Short, The Clash, Pearl Jam (10), Nirvana, Concrete Blonde, and a smattering of others, but I think you...

My foot is absolutely killing me. I have lost feeling in the outer edge of my right foot and I can't do anything about it.

The three days after Thanksgiving, we had 8 shows and I was up and down the stairs at the theater about three hundred times. When I had my foot looked a couple weeks ago the doctor said to stay off...

I'm confused.

Normally I am a big enough person to admit when I am wrong; and this might be one of those times.

The theater in which I work is doing a collection for a local community resource. Every year for three years we have taken up a collection for the Rhode Island Food Bank and it is been very meaningful. I think, and this...

My sleeping patterns for the past couple of days have been really bizarre. I have been house sitting and sleeping for two hours a night, then when my partner wakes up to go to work, she is a baker so she works at three in the morning, I get up with her, drive into town and then go back to my apartment and sleep for...

The Cat has given up trying to sleep in the same bed as me. Maybe I just toss and turn too much.

I don't own a pet, or a plant. I have owned dogs, I would consider myself a dog person, except that there are a handful of cats that I think are the coolest creatures ever.

Now, I am house sitting and the owners have a cat, one that I am not fond of. She is a bit of a pain in the ass, always wanting...

OK, you might not like to hear this, but a friend of mine, a very tough badass, swore to me last night that wearing high heels has helped his plantar fasciitis. Yes, you read that pronoun right.

So yeah, I guess the stories are what makes life worth living!

Our cat Peaches is the same way, and my cat Sarge growing up would do the same thing as well. Something about the crook of the leg I think reminds them of when they were snuggly little kittens and they would sleep all balled up with four of their brothers and sisters.

Wow, I am flattered out of my shoes that sophie has left a comment on my journal here at SG. She asked an interesting question; How do I do any sort of exercise with Plantar Fasciitis. The answer is short: Ibuprofen, lots of it.

For anybody who doesn't know what Plantar Fasciitis is I will explain what little I know about it. It is an...

Time flies when you are having fun.

I looked up and realized that I have been horrible about checking into SG. So let's see, my last post was in September, in the last two months I have been quite busy.

I suppose it is good to start at September and work up from there. The theater that I work for opened and closed a show,...

On this link on the right hand sidebar there's a link to the Rock Chalk Chant. That's our song that everyone knows. I couldn't figure out how to link the audio file...

Dude, you're doing crossfit?!? You are insane. How the hell do you do any kind of serious exercise with Plantar Fasciitis ? I cannot imagine.

She is going to be famous one day and you will be all be able to say that you liked her before she was famous, and you will feel...

I don't know if I can pick as good of titles as you did... I am still totally blown away by The Cave. I have a few on my list that are Chicano Lit that I want to read...

Congrats on the run! That is fantastic!

I want an MFA in writing, I am looking at low residency programs, but really haven't even come close to making a decision on where to apply. Carpentry can be hard on the body in the long run, and depending on what you do, might not satisfy you if your real desire it to create....

I am running a 5K this weekend. I am terrified. Well maybe not terrified but I am legitimately scared. I just don't know what to expect.

This morning I went out for a run and determined to shave some time off of my personal best I shaved TWO MINUTES OFF. I was blown away when I got done. The downside is that I think I...

Just when things in my life couldn't get an stranger.

I had an adventure of nighttime, rainy sailing where a game of truth of dare was played. It was brilliant.

I then got home to find an email in my inbox from a girl in college that I treated like absolute shit. I mean the kind of treatment that makes you cringe when you look...
