Good day and welcome to my journal....

I woke up and had a pot of really good coffee while watching the final two episodes of Buffy season 5.

I took a nap.

I paid my car payment.

I bought new cd's:
-Elvis Costello - North
-Me First and the Gimme Gimmes - Take a Break
-Fudge - The Ferocious Rythm of Precise Laziness
-Hot Pursuit...

*scratches head*

don't ya gotta cross that bridge held together with super glue to get to Saginaw?
dopalganger:
I have been over that bridge, I had a girlfriend a few years ago, I met in Florida, From just outside Flint. I drove from Boston a few times to visit her up at CMU. Had a good time at that Christmas place in Frankenmuth!

Carolina's big bad D-line, with the young, lightning fast LB's. I seem to recall another team, that at about midseason had the #1 ranked defense, with young, fast LB's. Dallas. We handled them just fine.

I got a call on Friday from my graduation auditor. She was calling to let me know that the credit transfered and that I have officially earned a bachelor's degree. So, I am all graduated and shit now.

I bought season 5 of Buffy on dvd.

My Patriots won! We's going to the Super Bowl!

I feel like shit. I have been stuffed up and sniffling all fucking day. I think maybe gin will make me feel better.

Gin can make anything feel better.

Finally went bowling again last night. I got progressively better as the night went on, so that's a good thing. But then again, I started off pretty badly.

Work was bad, bad, bad today. I had to manage which means I actually had to work. I couldn't just drive around in my car and deliver and make lots of money. I had to stay in...

I suggest getting your Chucks thru mailorder. I'm not sure if Converse will ship 'em to you directly, but if you google "classic sports shoes" you'll find a good site with lots of different colours and sizes... probably even pink ones for the large-footed gentleman. wink

No I can't retake the test, unfortunately. Its the kind of thing where if you apply for a specific job, they have to take it as part of the application process... interviews for the job I wanted are starting next week, so by the time I took it again and it got graded, it would be way too late. I think I'll try going back to my old summer job after graduation, but I don't know what I'll end up doing after that.
dopalganger:
pink chucks? whadya goin to the prom? wink

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I haven't been around much lately. I guess I got kinda burned out on interneting. And I was having some modem issues, but I have a new modem now.

Not a whole helluva lot has been going on in my life as of late. I have just been working as much as I possibly can (well, that's not entirely true since they...

Octavio Dotel is a top flight reliever, but that is the entire bullpen in terms of quality for the 'stros.

The Tigers signed Rondell White?

Ouch, that reminds me of a Randy Smith move. Ivan would work great with the young staff of Detroit. While I like Brandon Inge, he has no stick despite his late season surge last year.

About tea and coffee: For a long time, I didn't like either tea or coffee. With respect to tea, it turns out that what I didn't like was bad tea. The good stuff is great, now that I know what it tastes like. It's very probable that the same is true of coffee. I'll write down the name of the one you suggested ("Antigua Los Volcanes") and give it a try. I've always liked the *smell* of coffee...

Cheers - Zork.

I got the first three seasons of Buffy on dvd for Christmas.....so I have been in Buffy Marathon Mode for the last few days. I'm about halfway through season two right now.

Work sucked today, it sucked something fierce. My boss was sick so I had to fill in for him as manager rather than delivering. Sadly, this meant a lot less money in my...

So, things have been hectic and crazy. And I haven't been around here much, but that is going to change motherfuckers! I spent the Christmas money from my Grandmas on a new computer chair. Now I won't be in pain from bending over on the barstool I had sitting here! Now I can waste away hour after hour by keeping track of everyone on here!...

No, we should not ignore the bears... but we should also not ignore the wolves. It's all about balance, as I'm sure your philosophical self will agree.

Hoping your philosophcal self has had a wonderful break, and is returning full of philosophical insights, whatever they may be!!! smile smile
merry:
I spent xmas money on a new computer chair too, it rules.

I'm not picky about the logistics of the twin humpage. It's all in my head anyway...

I've been really fucking lazy, yet stressed out at the same time. I have this amazing ability to sit around watching television shows about Bennifer while thinking about how much work I have to do, and how I should really get on it... blecch... sick of thinking about it...

I got up to Saginaw on Wednesday and hung out with the family for awhile. We spent the whole day at the funeral home on Thursday. It was rough. I was struggling to be sad. I was very fucking far from close to my Grandma and the cousins on that side of the family were very close to her. They were constantly on the verge...

Well, I got a call from my Dad today. My Grandma passed away this afternoon. Congestive heart failure.....it happened while she was napping. Apparently it's a rather painless way to go. She's been in a nursing home for the last five years or so and the last couple of those she barely knew who we were when we went to visit her. I get to...

I don't remember 'Insomnia' much, so I'm in no position to answer your question about the kid.

What did you think of 'Black House'?

I still haven't gotten to 'Wolves' ... I've been slacking with the reading ...

Hey... just noticed that you're in Kalmazoo in addition to being interested in Philosophy. Do you know Michael Wolff (last I heard, he was in Kalamazoo's Phil. dept)?
